That's right. Beards. Where have they gone in football? Back in the day, everyone had one. Best, Socrates, Archibald. Sergio Batista!

Sadly, they've gone missing, and to this day, Genarro Gattusso is the only world champion to have won the big prize whilst sporting a beard since 1982!

So why have they gone away? Why can't a man be a man like old days?

And a few modern day jobs:
