There are top quality footballers playing the most attractive football, scoring the most beautiful goals or defending in such a manner that getting past them becomes a real feat.
At least that is how all the fans see and mostly think about the players who represent their favourite side. And they are adored for this reason.
But there are some footballers who develop a bigger fan base not only because of their footballing ability but because of their good looks!
Have you wondered what marks each Arsenal player would get on the “good looks” League?
I asked a small group of female friends (who are not all football fans) to look at the Arsenal players with a different eye!
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder as they say so there are bound to be a lot of different opinions about this very subjective matter.
Nevertheless in descending order these are the top 7 that they came up with.
7: Theo Walcott (cute)
6: Manuel Almunia (looks manly)
5: Nicklas Bendtner (nice)
4: Gilberto Silva (sweet)
3: Eduardo Da Silva ( latin looks)
2: Robin Van Persie (very cute)
1: Jens Lehmann (very handsome!)
It must be said that the rest of the Arsenal players were ….nowhere!
Ed: I am sure that there are a lot of different opinions about this subject and that the above list is by no means definitive.
Who do you think is the prettiest of them all?

Cesc should be number one!
that's rubbish! Cesc's top for looks and skills!
It doesn't matter, the girls always go for the one with the biggest salary anyway. :-)
I am a female fan and I also think that Jens Lehmann is rather fetching..
I rather like Theo
In the current team no one comes near some of the 'Invincibles' in particular Robert Pires and Freddy Lungberg
Gilberto looks like a mole!
I am not gay but... I want your babies Cesc!!! lol
I would agree that the Invincibles were rather more handsome!
Well Tommy gun is surely one of our best looking players?
I think in Pires Ljungberg and Henry, Wenger was specifically intimidating opposition defenses with handsome players- it ruined their morale.
***A note to 1970s Gooner***:
I know this is pedantic and all, but in 1970s there shouldn't be an apostrophe, it's a common error of the English language. Just thought I should tell you.
Errrm, where's Hleb?!
slow day for footie news then?
Wenger - Ultimate Class
Anelka - Egyptian Prince
Henry - Clean Shaven Jimi Hendrix
Graham - Classic 60s Hollywood Lead
Pires - Knight On A White Stallion
Fabregas - Naughty Little Genius
Van Persie - Naval G.I
Reyes - Latino Manliness
Almunia - Clooney Look
Overmars - Dutchino Manliness
Bergkamp - Ancient Vampire
Did a similar survey with 24 females at my workplace using their pictures from the official site asking them to rate their top 7 and totalling the points, those with the least points win ... and the results are as follows:
7. Mathieu Flamini
6. Armand Traore
5. Jens Lehmann
4. Thomas Rosicky
3. Nicklas Bendtner
2. Cesc Fabregas
1. Robin Van Persie
I really did not expected that Lehmann was considered handsome. I would have thought Fabregas would top all of those lists. God knows I'm not homosexual, but that guy is handsome. If I had a twenty year old daughter (kind of hard considering my age, 18) than I would marry her to him.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I dont think that there will be a consensus on who the top 7 are.

Thanks for pointing out that 1970s is written without an apostrophy!
1970s Gooner!
This is So So So So Gay.......
Almunia does nothing for me, and Cesc should definitely be up there. He's only going to get better looking. Gilberto doesn't do much for me, either...I do like Gaƫl, though, for whatever reason.
As far as pure handsomeness goes, I really miss Freddie.
I discussed with my wife and she was shocked that lehmann was top. she does not rate him at all.
Cesc was her number 1 and then van persie and then Rosicky!
not sure how gilberto rates so highly and we both weren't sure about Eduardo - I guess that depends on individual taste.
So our top 7 was
Fabregas
Van persie
Rosicky
Fabianski
Almunia
Walcott
Bendtner
Lord only knows why I am replying to this bollocks. This is usually one of the best blogs out there, but I guess footballing news is a bit slow today. I think Pires, Reyes and Freddie were the best, but in the current squad I think it would be RVP, Cesc, Clichy and Rosicky. Not seven, but this is as far as I can take it. By the way, does anyone else think that RVP looks like Randy Orten from WWE, without the muscles of course!! Anyway he does look posh!!!
Ha ha hahaa
This is funny I have to admit, come on guys it should be all based on individual basis I think. And guys stop judging guys... lol does not sound healthy...
It's all good that we dont have Shrek on the team like some northern team does... need I say more?
This is hilarious!! :)
forgot about them..
hleb - willem dafoe as goblin
rosicky - alvin lee in ten years after
the most handsome for me is dennis bergkamp!
The female gooners I know all say
Denilson and Flamini and the hottest
current players.
1. Pascal Cygan -
2. Jimmy Rimmer -
3. Willie Young -
4. Philppe Senderos -
5. Martin Keown -
- -
But seriously folks...
1. Charlie Nicholas
2. Freddie
3. Emmanuel Petit
4. Anders Limpar
5. Bobby Pires
WTF.
Should be like this.
1. Henry
2. Ljungberg
3. Pires
4. Fabregas
5. Walcott
6. Lansbury
7. Rosicky
Mmm...mmmMMmmm!!!
How about Martin keown what a dish!
Bendtner = Looks like a yob
Van Persie = " Vain
Gilberto = " Mean
Walcot = " Too nice
Lehmann = " Reliable
Flamini = " Loyal
Manu Adebayor is very handsome with that square jaw of his and Hollywood smile.
If he wore his hair in a short natural crop, rather than his current braided style, I'd volunteer to be his Bitch...and I'm a man.
To Anon 12.06 and 1970's Gooner, regarding the apostrophe point:
1970's Gooner you may keep the apostrophe if you are intending to describe yourself as a Gooner from the 1970's i.e. belonging to the1970's. Much in the same way that Fabregas may be described as Arsenal's Fabregas.
1970 pluralised would be 1970s without the apostrophe but as there is a possession involved, the comma should be added.
A further example would be that dog pluralised is dogs but your dog's collar would need an apostrophe on the dog.
I realise I sound like a twat with this comment but at least I have maintained my manliness and not commented on looks of our players.
Kolo is my cutie though.
Are your female friends blind?? Cesc is the hottest footballer out there - in looks and skill!! And Almunia doesn't belong anywhere near this list.
Try this list instead:
7) Traore
6) Lehmann
5) Fabianski
4) Theo
3) RVP
2) Tommy
1) Cesc
With honourable mentions for Jay Simpson, Carlos Vela, and Henri Lansbury... call me a pedo if you must *smile*
,,,,The best looking Arsenal player has got to be Cesc! What a handsome little devil he is! Ha ha.My girlfriend thinks so as well, so at least we agree on something! Great blog, like the fun!

Thanks for entering the side debate on whether my nick name should have an apostrophe or not!
Now I am in right dilemma but my name above should give you a clue.
Thanks for your input Wrighty7.
Ok, enough with the apostrophe talk.
Anyway, surely handsomest is not a word. Apart from anything it's damned ugly.
Most handsome would be the way to go.
(Can we do the difference between ; and : tomorrow please?)
Robin van Persie!? You gotta be joking. All due respect cos he's a great footballer and all, but he's just plain ugly.
KANU!
WHERE DA FUK IS ADEBAYOR?
My chick friend told me Hleb was "hot" when she was watching an Arsenal game with me
Did a similar survey with 24 females at my workplace using their pictures from the official site asking them to rate their top 7 and totalling the points, those with the least points win ... and the results are as follows:
7. Mathieu Flamini
6. Armand Traore
5. Jens Lehmann
4. Thomas Rosicky
3. Nicklas Bendtner
2. Cesc Fabregas
1. Robin Van Persie
So!! No
Adebayor
Eboue
Diarra
Sagna
Gilberto
Gallas
Diaby
Hoyte
Song
Denilson
Djourou
In the top 7
I wonder why???????????
Stupid blog :(
Cos they aren't?
Tool.
Me thinks this blog/survey should be called "Are these the seven handsomest European Arsenal players?"
Come on Arsenal!!!
What about Perry Groves?
From what I remember, he was something of a ginger sexual Tyrannosaurus.
Yes please Perry, I would like you to bash your balls into my box.
I agree with the other ladies. Lehmann is very easy on the eye. Lovely face and body.

Robin is a hottie, too.
Lehman is he best looking of the lot
In my official capacity as a hetero female, I have to add my voice to the "where's Cesc?" (well, post-getting-rid-of-that-mullet Cesc) and "Lehmann *is* weirdly handsome" choruses.
I agree on Lehmann. He is a very handsome man.
But Almunia? come on! He shouldn't be in this list.
a research show that female choose a cutie kinda guy when they are on period, but choose a macho gusto kinda guy when they not on period. So who ever choose lehman over cesc mean she not on period. go figure guys
Robin van Persie!? You gotta be joking. All due respect cos he's a great footballer and all, but he's just plain ugly.
WHAT!!! go see your optician now. Robin has Hollywood looks.
Strictly speaking, he's even better looking than Cesc. But Cesc is a sweetie so I'd choose him first every time. Robin has one fit bod tho - he's built like a swim champ with those broad shoulders and long limbs. :D
I discussed the Lehmann enigma with a friend - we both agreed that yes, he was very good looking (classic Teutonic bone structure) but you still wouldn't go there, as too much of a knob. (This was before the the Battle of the Buffet, when he became much more popular with Arsenal fans.)
Almunia's looks are much improved since the bleach job; it's made an unbelievable difference.
My personal all-time favourite: the inimitable Bobby P. *sigh*
How can Freddie not be in the running, remember the Calvin Klein ads girls!!
Seriously though
Freddie,Henry & Pires beat the curent squad with the exception of Walcott in the looks dept.
Agree re: Jens but how can the wonderboy only come 7th? None of these are a patch on the trio of gods who used to grace our pitch: Manu Petit, Bobby Pires and Freddie Ljungberg ....
Jens is the best looking, Cesc and Bendtner also very hot. Clichy and RVP arent bad either, but i agree that none are a patch on the old school pairing of Henry and Ljungberg- they look like models. They are models, in fact.
You have forgot the sexiest guy in the whole Premier League... Flamini!
the only one I agree with is Bendtner. Granted he's very attractive.
But my favorite based on looks alone is Senderos!! I also can't believe Cesc was nowhere to be found.
mmm...Senderos :) yum.
uhh, it's crazy. Where's cesc? Where's flamini? Where's hleb? If you ask me, gilberto silva and lehmann shouldn't be there at all. If I were the writer of these stupid notes, I'll write my version of the most handsome Arsenal guy:
1. Cesc Fabregas (soo cute!)
2. Robin van Persie (cool guy)
3. Mathieu Flamini (so sad that he will go to milan, but he is quite handsome)
4. Nicklas Bendtner (cool!)
5. Tomas Rosicky (such a handsome)
6. Aliaksandr Hleb (luv his hair)
7. Theo Walcott (a sweet guy, as sweet as sugar, ha ha ha)
I'm not sure why but this blog is loading incredibly slow for me. Is anyone else having this issue or is it a problem on my end? I'll check back later and see if the problem

I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the layout of
your site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or 2 images.
Maybe you could space it out better?
Look into my website ruiculnogar.insanejournal.com/4229.html
Why users still use to read news papers when in this
