Anyone agree?. He has a lovely smile when being interviewed after today’s match.

I'm footy mad and remember when he managed Chelsea. I thought he seemed like such a nice man back then. He bought his Filipino cleaner a house and paid for her son's medical care. He's just so sweetly spoken. Daniel Farke is much the same. Looks like a hitman but has such a lovely, calming voice.

TT doesn't blow my whistles but I have been alerted to this thread by the Guardian Football Weekly podcast so I thought I'd pop along for a gander. 😊

That’s hilarious. What did they say about it?

What??? Please tell, I don’t have the patience for podcasts.

Yes, Jude Bellingham is objectively beautiful; but that kind of perfection is … almost uninteresting.

God no. Even if he leads England to win the World Cup that won't make him any more attractive. He is a strange mixture of being in a position of authority but behaving like he is weak. Very unattractive.

I actually know his (real life) girlfriend and she is very gorgeous and very lovely. I always thought he was punching, but perhaps I am missing something...

NorthernDancer · 05/07/2026 09:49

When he was at Chelsea I always said he looked as if he should be smoking weed in a bus shelter - and nobody disagreed. However, I now find myself warming to him, so I'm with you OP.

Jude Bellingham on the other hand, is a magnificent specimen. Have him washed and brought to my tent immediately!

I had a dream that he was found to be a vampire

He reminds me of Richard O Brian in Rocky Horror Show. He must have a fiery temper though at half time.

HoraceCope · 01/07/2026 20:35

I like him

BotterMon · 01/07/2026 20:34

He reminds me of Riff Raff from TRHPS. Not enough meat (muscle) on his bones for me.

Springbuck · 01/07/2026 20:32

I think it’s the heat, maybe have a lie down somewhere cool.

However, if you were to ask about Gareth Southgate ❤️❤️❤️

I don't think that was a dream

JohnnyMcGrathSaysFuckOff · 01/07/2026 20:29

Steve Coogan? Jesus actual Christ.

Mind you. I did once have a sex dream about Dominic Raab. So there you are

at least Dominic Raab doesn't look like he was interred in the 1850s

I think it’s just the whole managing England thing, it’s a vibe, a strange vibe but a vibe none the less

Yes, I do like a man in a position of authority.

Pieceofpurplesky · 01/07/2026 20:27

No. He has a look of someone who should be bigger. That maybe because he reminds me of a friend who has been on Mounjaro.
Now, Vladimir Petkovik has an older man, silver fox vibe for a manager. However the World Cup belongs to Antonia Sananbria, Jude Bellingham and Maduka Okoye!

Op you need to lie down and drink some water. My diagnosis is sunstroke, it’s clearly affected your thought processes.

He has a certain wiry, athletic, long limbed vibe to him yes. Mind you I also agreed with the sexy steve coogan thread the other day, perhaps it is my age 🤣

ServietteUnion · 01/07/2026 20:24

100% yabu - hilarious! Such consensus is rare!

But...
He just looks like something from a Pixar film 😒

OP. Are you perimenopausal?

And therefore fancy anything with three legs?

Rude! 🤣🤣🤣

Never mind him, what about the muscles on Jude Bellinghams arms. And I far to old to be even noticing!

I obviously go for the malnourished, vagrant look rather than the pumped man-god vibe
