Top 10 Terrible Football Statues In The World(Opinion)

In today's article, I am gonna be sharing with you guys 10 football statues which I thought might be terrible from around the world.

Well, without further waste of time lets begin

10. Christiano Ronaldo's Statue(Madeira)

It doesn't look like Christiano Ronaldo and his bulge is nowhere near that big.


9. Ted Bates Statue (Southampton)

Southampton's original Ted Bates statue(left) was so bad that it ended up being taken down and replaced by a new one(right).


8. Sir Bobby Robson's Statue (Newcastle)

Newcastle's statue of former manager sir Bobby Robson looks like a plasticine figure of a totally different man.


7. Billy McNeill's Statue (Celtic)

A great moment deserves a great statue, but Celtic's statue of Billy McNeill lifting the European cup is a poor resemblance of the man.


6. Alan Shearer's Statue (Newcastle)

Shearer's open palm celebration is one of the most recognizable in premier league history. So why is his statue raising one finger?


5. Ivor Allchurch's Statue (Swansea)

Known as the 'Golden boy' of Welsh football, Ivor Allchurch's statue at Swansea is more tinpot than ordinary metal.


4. David Beckham's Statue (USA)

The scary silver statue of David Beckham was spotted across the US as part of an advertising campaign for H&M.


3. Fred Keenor (Cardiff)

Cardiff's FA Cup-winning captain wasn't exactly blessed with looks to begin with, but whoever made this didn't do him any favours.


2. Michael Jackson (Fulham)

Fulham fans criticised club owners Mohammed Al-Fayed for placing this MJ statue at Craven Cottage, so he told them to " go to hell".


1. Christiano Ronaldo's Statue (Madeira Airport)

Ronny's not exactly had a lot of luck with statues in his time. This one was unveiled when Madeira Airport was named after him.
