Can't see what you posted on my phone, did Google their kit but still can't see whatever I'm supposed to....it will have to wait until I get home.

The outlines from the weird shapes join up to create swastika's.
 
None.

Athletes are usually twats. I don't really feel that I looked at any particular figure as a role model growing up; particularly not athletes.
 
If 12 until 14 counts as a kid, Gareth Bale. He was/is everything I loved and imagined myself to be as a football player based on my attributes. Reliant on pace, left-footed, a left-back who made the transition to a winger. Even to this day, he is my favourite player ever, and I doubt that someone can take his place, just because I wanted so much to be like him. Started supporting Tottenham when we beat City in 2010 for the Champions League qualification, fell in love when I saw Bale play.
he'll always be a hero for me if for no other reason than that goal(s) he scored in last years CL final
 
Maybe it's because I was a kid back then, but it seems like there were more "heroes" in football in the late 90's. Almost every country had a world class player. Now I'm afraid that the youth only have Messi and Ronaldo (some times Neymar) as their idols.
