Luca Toni- Plays for Fiorentina and Italy.
Nickname: Bomber or Tonigol.
His celebration is unique, I really don't know how to explain it but it originated in Palermo when some of his friends were just joking around and Luca said, If I score a goal, I'll do that. So then he started scoring more and more. Now he does it every single time he scores.
He has been dating an Italian model for eight years.. lucky girl. LOL.
Um.. He's 6'5.
He scored a hat-trick against Belarus. (Which I think the final score was 4-1.. Italy won, of course)
He was Serie A's top scorer last season with 31 goals and he won the Golden Boot. :)

fans have also begun to foment a potential rivalry between Robinho and Argentinian striker Lionel Messi, who has been hailed as a wonderkid in football, and therefore a natural counterpart to Robinho. Contrasts between the two include the fact that they each represent rival Latin American football powerhouses (Brazil and Argentina); they play opposite each other in the premiere rival clubs of La Liga (Robinho for Real Madrid and Messi for FC Barcelona); and interestingly, there are the comparisons to the greatest living footballers in the world (Messi has been hailed by Argentinian fans and media as "the new Maradona" and Robinho with Pelé).

Fernando Morientes (nicknames: nando, El Moro). born April 5th 1976, he's a great soccer player (he's spanish, currently in Valencia CF).
played a great role in the national team, but was dropped from it (from the dumb coach!). played for Real Madrid, Monaco, Liverpool.
i like the way he strikes, he can handle the ball very well, and since his team-mates are also spanish, they get along very well and know each other and how they play (even in the national team).
