Title: Loaded
With the Fifa World Cup just a few months away, football enthusiasts will soon be going gaga for international soccer once again.
England will be hoping to lift the famous trophy for the first time since 1966, but the usual anticipation of victory has been replaced by a more philosophical outlook ahead of the competition in South Africa.
Perhaps summing this up, Tottenham Hotspur striker Peter Crouch, who hopes to be heading south to play on the game's biggest stage this summer, has been photographed holding the trophy for Loaded magazine.
At least, that's what it appears to be at first glance. A closer inspection of the image reveals it to be the towering forward's arm and hand, gripping a ball that has been dipped in custard, to resemble the instantly-recognisable trophy.
However, this is just one of a host of things for the magazine's readers to look forward too.
The May edition also includes a free Big Book of Boobs, which features Alice Goodwin, Kelly Andrews, Melissa D and Holly Peers, among others.
Crouch has been in decent form for Spurs this season, scoring 11 goals in all competitions so far.
