Mikel Arteta 1000000 %!!!

AVB although he hasn't managed in the Premier league for a few years now. I follow him on Facebook. Gorgeous, intelligent man with a lovely family.

I also really like Xhaka who is also arsenal.
His wife was lovely too on the documentary

I have always had a soft spot for Xhaka, he's not bad looking, but he is so 100% comitted to football and is an excellent team player (until he throws a massive strop about something and gets sent off, a regular occurance at Gladbach but he seems to have matured.) His wife is very sweet, she used to work at Gladbach and we'd see her out and about fairly often.

Back to players, Marwin Hitz (another of the Swiss goalies) is a bit of a looker. And he scored a goal when he played at Augsburg which is great.

Arteta. But I'm biased!

WhatIsThisPlease · 03/01/2023 14:11

Eddie Howe for me.

I mean, I am a toon fan and have been all my life. But bias put to one side, he's lovely 😍

Fulham's Marco Silva, gorgeous man.
Not in the PL but Tomas Holy, ex Gillingham goalie.

VVD in the flesh is a beautiful man. Lovely.

Graeme Souness - Seems to get better looking with each passing year. Lovely accent too.

@Awrite @RJnomore1

Agree with GG but I'd also need to add in Carl Starfelt and Matt O'Riley, although Matt is a wee bit too pretty for my usual tastes.

What did his wife do at Gladbach?

no idea, nothing particularly glamorous i think, it's a while ago now. They were dating for quite a while. Nothing to do with the team, in the sporting sense, something in the offices (marketing? really not much of a clue)
He was one of the few Gladbach players who actually lived in the town - they get mobbed usually so they're advised not to. It's a shit-hole though...

Did you see him in the Switzerland - Serbia match in the world cup? He was amazing (on and off the pitch)?

when i read things like this, i kind of regret boycotting it. Serbia is a flashpoint for him though, i think, given his history. If you ever see him interviewed about it, you can see how much it still affects the family.

Nathan Ake, beautiful boy. From the 90s, Patrick Berger who played for Liverpool. And George Best when he was in his prime.

Klopp
Jude Bellingham
Trent Alexander Arnold
Virgil VD

100% Liverpool*. I like 😎

*When Bellingham decides to choose us that is ;)

Casper Schmeichel - he is a beautiful Viking mountain of a man.

Also Allison - fun fact, his brother also has a girl's name - Muriel.

@Brefugee
Thanks so much for mentioning Ruud Gullit.
I had the serious hots for him!

MissMarplesbag · 03/01/2023 14:47

Nobody mentioned Antonio Conte from Tottenham?

Famousinlove · 03/01/2023 14:48

Virgil Van Dijk and Gareth Bale (not sure if he's still in the Prem though)

DialSquare · 03/01/2023 14:53

Yes, I can tell by your username. Aren't we luck to have the most attractive manager in the league?

We are. Been a long time coming too!
