Top 10 fat footballers

www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/3771716/Top-10-fat-football...

SUNSPORT counts down the giants of the game — that's in size, not their reputation on the pitch.


10. Mark Bosnich - When the big Aussie wasn't getting into trouble for snorting the white stuff, he was piling on the pounds. Bosnich said he never liked training and it showed as he added his P45 to collection of honours.


9. Mido - Some journeymen have more clubs than most have hot dinners but it's obvious this wasn't the case for the Egyptian. He evidently has a taste for the game, having played at 11 different clubs but his appetite for food seems even larger.


8. Adriano - The former Inter Milan frontman once had defenders tossing and turning in their sleep. Now the only people losing sleep are his club Corinthians as the big Brazilian looks to control his weight. Once quoted saying "I eat a lot of salad", Corinthians will be hoping he scores like he lies.


7. Benni McCarthy - Big Ben recently criticised Karren Brady, calling her "the devil with a pair of t*ts" after she slated his ballooning weight and said his signing was a mistake. Brady hit back at McCarthy saying "at least I'm supposed to have t*ts".


6. Neville Southall - The Everton legend returned to help Premier League new boys Bradford back in 2000 when City had a keeper crisis. At 41 and about three stone overweight, 'Big Nev' lived up to his nickname.


5. Paul Gascoigne - Larger than life Gazza was never one to shy away from the spotlight. Unfortunately for the England legend, he was never one to shy away from pork pies, beer and kebabs either.


4. Neil Ruddock - 'Razor' should have tried to shave off a few pounds as his contract with Swindon was terminated for him being over 15 stone. A lot of respect to the chap at Swindon who had to tell him the news. Rather him than me...


3. Willie 'Fatty' Foulke - The former Sheffield United and Chelsea keeper once snapped a crossbar clean in two. Weighing 24 stone we're not too surprised either. He also infamously chased referee Tom Kirkham after the 1902 FA Cup final, wearing nothing but his Birthday Suit. Fat chance he caught him.


2. Maradona - The Hand of God was soon the main accessory to help Argentine legend Diego Maradona shovel food into his giant gob. His favourite dish unfortunately isn't humble pie but we believe revenge is a dish best served cold.


1.Ronaldo - The chunky Brazilian tops our chart as the fattest footballer. Two World Cup's and three World Player of the Year awards weren't the only thing under Ronaldo's belt as his stomach was too vast to hide. He eventually lost his battle with the bulge and retired due to his size in February of this year.

Ailton? Ricordi bene.
Ricordo Caressa che lo insultava ai tempi di MondoGol

caressa è un idiota e se fosse un vero professionista si dovrebbe autoinsultare

Sì sì, anche Kuranyi. A me quel programma sinceramente piaceva, adesso non so come sta messo perché non c'ho più skysport, però prima con De Grandis-Caressa era abbastanza godibile.

Non lo presentano più loro. Stanno Cattaneo e Trevisani ora.

La mancanza di Pizza è imperdonabile..

Willie 'Fatty' Foulke stava pure sulla settimana enigmistica di qualche mese fa, pesava 130 kg e spezzo un palo in tuffo...
probabilmente e' stato il piu' pesante giocatore professionista nel calcio.

Foulke by now was remarkably temperamental. If he thought his defenders were not trying hard enough, he would walk off the field. Opposing forwards who incurred his displeasure would be picked up and thrown bodily into his goal.
