Ex-Pal Pose Off: Xabi Alonso & Steven Gerrard vs David Beckham & Iker Casillas
Images: Twitter, Facebook.
Which pair of former starting XI teammates pulls off the “reunited and it looks so good” mood best: old Liverpool partners-on-field, Xabi Alonso & Steven Gerrard, or Becksillas (of Real-ly Hot Madrid fame)?
Now, on to more important issues. Like when did David Beckham’s forehead totally give up on fighting the early signs of premature aging? It’s making us uncomfortable. And a little curious.
Many thanks in advance to those who respond to our sizzle query request. We eagerly await your consult while we pout in the judgment corner.
Gerrard Alonso. They're at the same age. They had great moment together in liverpool.
gerlonso!!!!
OMG! where was I?! how did i miss this yummy photo????.
My heart just melted and it's getting mixed with my drool. Forget 50 shades of gray….These 4 shades of tan will do enough!. GGrrrr… goodness, I miss Xabi in LFC.
Beckham, my love
I LOVE THEM ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Xabi and Stevie… when where and why were they reunited??x
Xabi posted it on his twitter in May, called Stevie "the Skipper", obviously beaming with pride.
Why? Because they missed each other and couldn't wait to pull each other into a secluded hotel room and… er… I mean, I don't know, no idea. They're wearing dorky, old married couple, ridiculous matching swimming trunks though so I can't help it, the fanfic writes itself.
beckham and casillas pair is more good than xabi alonso and steven gerrerd.
I could do with a keeper for our pub team so becks and casillas! ha

Gerlonso! I love both of them! *-*
(Xabeard is in the hose *¬*)
Gerlonso! Stevie looks so happy; maybe Xabi is a little friskier than his missus, who apparently only owns 20 pairs of white knickers.
Oh, and Xabi looks really happy as well, he must be missing the kisses from Stevie
There’s nothing EX about Stevie and Xabi. Some love stories transcend time and transfer drama. Xabi talks in Jot Down about his years in Liverpool with such…longing, calls it his unfinished business and lists Stevie as an all time favorite player he respects most. And Stevie is a smitten kitten when he talks about Xabi. The longing and angst… Becksillas just cannot compete.
Gerlonso, of course. So much love and happiness in that picture. <3
Becksillas are much hotter although Alonso is beautiful
Gerlonso of course! They're beautiful (especially my Xabi) and look so happy together…very nice pic!
Gerlonso for life <3
how on earth am i supposed to make this decision!? talk about sophie's choice! i love ALL of them, and both sets of bromances (i support RM and liverpool), but if i *HAD* to pick … becksillas. david is absolutely iker's one true love (watch out, pastasauce!).
Anyone have a direct link to the Alonso/Gerrard picture?
Xabi was so happy about it, he tweeted it: http://img.ly/ioqs
Becksillas. Love for the ages. XDD Look at the snuggle! I love Stevie and Xabi, both together and apart, but the friendship between Iker and Becks was charming beyond all other sources of delight. Plus it's the one with the public declarations of love!
Xabi Alonso and Steven Gerrard!!! Becks looks old and this is not Iker’s best shot!
The hands on the shoulder says it all, great friends Gerlonso. I wonder if Becks has improved his Spanish…

You can't even see where Iker and Becks have their hands!!
Becksillas these two even don't speak the same language, talk with he language of Love! I am pretty sure one of main reasons why we play LA every season for these to meet, look at how happy Iker is in the photo, although it is downgrade from last season their shared moments in conference
Totally Gerlonso! They look genuinely comfortable and happy with each other.
Becksillas — all the way!
O M G!!!! It’s 2012 and we get to see a picture of Gerlonso and Becksillas! Two of my favourite bromances of all time!!! My ovaries are exploding!
Look how happy Stevie is! Must be Stevie & Xabi then.
two of the greatest bromances in football…
Definitely Alonso and Gerrard. You can feel the sexual tension between those two. Cheeks flushed with desire.
Those two kiss again and I am in heaven! LOL
It has to be Iker and Becks for me. Never liked Gerlonso that much, thought Gerrard was much cuter/had fantastic chemistry with Torres.
The Gerrard/Torres combo was more of a footballing one, IMO. Sure it was great to hear their names called out together by the commentators, but as far as bromances go, Gerlonso was the one for Stevie.
The things Fernando and Stevie said about each other was always endearing imo, they called the other their "special friend" and all that lmao, and Fernando loved to bring up Stevie in every interview he had, and they were always wearing each other's kits during trainings (as in, Fernando wore no.8 and Stevie no.9). And of course, their on-pitch chemistry was to die for, their goals celebrations specially. To me, the Gerlonso love started after Xabi left Liverpool when they realized that they indeed missed/needed each other a lot. But during Xabi's time at Livepool, I can only recall their CL win night in which they acted affectionate towards one another.
Xabi and Stevie. That pic just made me so happy because THEY are so happy! <3
GERLONSO FOREVER.
pppft, its not even a competition, gerlonso win by a long shot. YNWA!
Stevie and Xabi! It was a sad day when that duo were separated.
Gerlonso FTW!! Like Red_Girl said, you can tell that those two are truly happy to be reunited.
Becksillas all the way!
Charming as Becks and Casillas are, there is genuine delight on the face of Stevie and Xabi. And have Becks and Casillas ever shared a kiss like S-X on fire? I rest my case.
I think it's a draw! Can't choose!
This is the one time I'm on Liverpool's side.
Gerlonso has it by a ginger beard! This was hard though.
YES! (I believe that is the correct answer).
Seconding this! It's definitely the correct answer.
Becksillas! Long live cheek pinching, piggy backs and rolling around in the grass!!
Always Gerlonso.
