Con la Roja: Better Than Chocolate?

Ready to take a peek behind today’s advent calendar door?  Still no chocolate, but we do have Víctor Valdés, Gerard Piqué and Carles Puyol!

Víctor showed off his modeling skills once again (and once again, I’m going to say that he has another viable career option should that football thing not work out anymore) in La Vanguardia Magazine.  It doesn’t look too much like his style (remember, he says likes wearing jeans, a t-shirt, leather jacket and boots) but he looks great, no?  And I can totally see Pep Guardiola right at home in some of the outfits, especially the center and right ones from the bottom row.

Con la Roja: Victor Valdés at DT

Last month, they brought us Xabi Alonso.  And now DT magazine gives us Víctor Valdés!

[MGEF: ^Oh my stars!]

It’s great to learn more about Víctor, especially the side of him that most people don’t get to see, the off the field persona.  And he does appear to be a great guy (this team is full of them!), in addition to being a stellar model.  He could certainly model full time, no?

If you listen to the rumors, Víctor Valdés (Hospitalet de Llobregat, 1982), the goalkeeper of Barcelona, is a strange person, who gets into fights easily, and in general, not very nice.  That’s the impression that his penetrating stare and some urban legends give.  But none of that is true, except if he has a double that arrives on time for the photo shoot, who greets everyone who’s waiting for him affably, and is sincere, without worrying about whether he appears nice or not.  At the end of the interview, we are all left with the feeling that we just passed time with someone nice… including those who are fans of Real Madrid.
