Boots and a bouffant

It’s the most unmistakable frizzy mop in football history – that of Carlos Valderrama!
The Colombian was as well-known for his hairstyle as he was for his football ability – and that’s saying something.
Indeed, the former midfielder, who was renowned for his immaculate passing, won a record 111 caps for Colombia between 1985 and ’98, and was twice named South American Footballer of the Year.

My two memories from Italia 1990 which was the most modern and fantastic World Cup with beautiful women and scenery was the ability of Maradona and hairstyle of Carlos Valdaramma its good to know that he had great ability as well unfortunately Cameroon were the surprise package and Roger Milla stole the show with his ability!!

Hahah, when you think of a Colombian, you think El Pibe. I think that if James is to be a successor, he should have the same hair as Valderrama don't you agree? Hahaha!
