Arsenal ? Anybody??

Being a gunners fan I was a little grilled to find out Paul Smith, who supports the boys in red, was designing off-pitch formal wear for Manchester United at the Champions League final in Moscow. And then it gets worse Mr Armani offers his support in dressing the boys in blue, Chelsea !
Where is Karl Lagerfield for Arsenal people??Or Marc Jacobs. Or Prada. It doesn't matter which one, I just want my boys dressed up in fancy designer too!

Armani on football and fashion, "The theme of superheroes is very much at the forefront of my mind at the moment. I hope that my suits have a similar effect to the batman cape for the Chelsea team as they head to Moscow for the Champions League Final," says the designer, whose off the field outfit includes a single-breasted, two-button navy blue crease resistant lightweight wool suit, with flat-front, straight-legged trousers and a fitted jacket with a pronounced "Roman" shoulder line.

"Footballers are the gladiators of our time; iconic sporting heroes who make dreams come true. I wish the team the best of luck," Armani adds.

Pshh yeah you should wish them luck, they sure as hell need it !

On a more positive note click here if you want to catch a glimpse of Thierry Henry preparing for his photo shoot with last issue's Dazed and Confused. Not only is he a football icon but he also tops the best dressed list for footballers!
