An early contender for best lookalike of 2010, methinks, and one of my favourites of all time. Big love to Guy Gorman for sending it in. Torres is indeed the Shadowfax of the Premier League fleet of foot, noble, flighty, a pure thoroughbred.

Please, no accusations that I've gone all John Motson up in here. I do see a likeness between Richards and soon-to-be City team-mate Balotelli. Perhaps it's in the artistic hair.

Basque artist Dario Urzay designed this eyepopping shirt to mark Athletic Bilbao's centenary they only wore it in a short UEFA Cup campaign in 2004. Thank God for small mercies. The shirt is supposed to evoke a blood splatter, but it looks more like an explosion in a strawberry jam factory.
