The 7 Worst Football Statues You’ll (Hopefully) See Today
By Chris Wright
With a nod to the fact that Arsenal are set to celebrate their 125th birthday later this afternoon by unveiling three new statues (Tony Adams, Thierry Henry and Pascal Cygan I believe) outside the Emirates, we thought we’d have a look at the seven most ridiculous, ill-conceived and borderline offensive effigies that have either graced or continue to grace stadiums and the like around the world.
Hopefully, for Arsenal’s sake, these will be the seven worst you see today…
More statuesque goodness on Pies…

OMG but that Ronaldinhorse is frightening!!! The stuff of nightmares!
Another shout is the Alfredo di Stefano statue…just looks a bit….wrong. Like hes wearing a kit made of excess skin.
(or nightstallions…)
@atotaltoal: Is that the one without any legs?
I sure can’t wait to see the Cygan statue! ^_________^
As ugly as it is the Maradona statue is still better looking than the real Maradon.
Why haven’t anyone destroyed the Michael Jackson statue yet?
The Jackson statue is an embarrassment to us but at least I’ve witnessed people climb him and pretend to felate his bedazzled crotch. It makes for better half time entertainment than who can kick a ball the closest to the centre spot.
Lol Jon!
Pascal Cygan?? That’s hilarious!! The third statue unveiled was Herbert Chapman’s!!
you forgot the statue chelsea picked up for fifty mill
