Philippe Mexes: A Cautionary (Piggie)Tail
Remember kids, never accept sweeties from strange men. Although in this case, we’re probably prepared to make an exception. Images via fff.fr; Getty Images/Daylife.
Whether it’s a newly developed penchant for unhealthy snack foods, the debilitating effects of over-stretching for piggie purposes or the infinitely more plausible affliction of ’notgivingacrap’, we’re not the only ones wondering what the holy hell is going on with Philippe Mexes’ hair at the moment.
However, on the grounds that during France’s friendly against Croatia last night, the defender brought new and terrifying meaning to the term ‘bitchface’ (left), we prepared to leave it alone. For now.
BTW, views on the new French NT kit now you’ve seen it in action, team?


So beautiful posts,all I like,hope to be better then,and enjoy yourself,good luck in your life.Thanks for your ideas to something.
Oooooh who's the guy next to Mexes??
Adil Rami, he plays for Lille and will go to Valencia this summer
Missing from the new kit Francaise: fisherman's hats and saucy little moustaches…
karim was just awesome. (even in breton shirt)
Why look at Mexes when ADIL RAMI is there????
SEXY IN THOSE SHIIIIRTS
Philippe Mexes who??? All I see is RAMI!!!! =) Love that man. Feel better soon Adil. T'es trop chou.
Also, the new kit is fabulous. I love it.
yum! no one pulls off the half pony (or regular pony) like him, the Ramos, or Becks!
Ribery comments always seem to make me laugh for some reason– I think Kickette should compile a best of.
And totally agree with you on the French uniforms. They really look unexpectedly nice.
lol i know haha! seriously, Ribery jokes just make my day!
The “Marine inspired” French nt kits: NO. The simple blue ones are great, but this? It looks good on no one. Not on le capitain Alou. Not on bb Nasri. Not even on Yoann. At least Hugo looks fine in his.
Philippe’s hair: I’m not a sucker for long hair. In fact I don’t really like it at all. But I have to make an exception In this case. Philippe just wouldn’t be philippe without his golden hair. But that’s just me.
PS. Joyeux Anniversaire Philou!!!
