Updated!
Being a fan of the German NT and with the Euros only a couple of days away, I thought it was about time to redo that old LJ staple:
the footballers as babies picspam!
You've probably seen many or even most of these already, but they never really get old, do they?
I tried to find baby pictures of all current German NT players, but, alas, I had no luck. Here's what I did find though...
(If you have any more pics, please share them in the comments.)
Manuel Neuer
I swear I've seen more baby pics of Neuer before, but I could only find this single one (what a cute one it is though). To make up for it, here's a
video of baby Neuer and his teddy.
Tim Wiese
Has this man ever not had a bad haircut?
Philipp Lahm
Speaking of haircuts, has Philipp Lahm's ever changed?
Per Mertesacker
Totally loving it!
Holger Badstuber
How adorable is little Holger with his trophy?
Mats Hummels
Proof that Mats looks good in anything, any time.
Jerome Boateng
Awww, baby Jerome was totally cute.
Bastian Schweinsteiger
Not as cute as ski racing baby Basti though. Obviously, this calls for a
link to one of the most adorable videos ever.
Mesut Özil
I'm hoping that outfit was a hand-me-down from his sister/cousin/neighbour's daughter, otherwise it would just be cruel.
Mario Götze
Awww, he hasn't changed a whole lot, has he?
Lukas Podolski
For some reason, I always think baby Poldi looks like a little devil in disguise... a cute one though.
Thomas Müller
Absolutely adorkable.
Miroslav Klose
The ears, the mullet, the pointing! Love it!
Mario Gomez
He was a bit of an akward looking kid, wasn't he? Grew up nicely though.
Jogi Löw
5 decades, 1 haircut.
Update! (Thanks to
postingwhore and
pomelog for these!)
Benedikt Höwedes
Oh Benni... <3
Lars Bender
I'm usually quite good at telling the Bender twins apart, but I'm at a loss here...
Sami Khedira
To those in the know, is that Serdar Tasci next to him?
Toni Kroos
Look at little Toni, it's Christmas (or
Nikolaus?) and he's all excited...
André Schürrle
This is too adorable for words...
Time for another update. Thanks to
achtbiere, we now also have photos of a baby
Marco Reus
Check the comments for more.
Now the only ones missing are Schmelzer, Gündogan and Zieler.
