What is it about Colombians and their hair-styles? Serious rival to teammate Carlos Valderrama, he represented his country during Italia 90. Vote for Rene here......

7. Ruud Gullit

101 votes Vote for me!

Disappointingly only managed to make one World Cup in 1990. One of the bravest players around he continued to perform at a high level despite having a tarantular living on his head. Vote or Ruud here......

Represented Argentina in three World Cups. Worryingly for me he looks a touch like my Wife when she's had a bad hair day!! Vote for Claudio here......

Perhaps more famous for his penalty miss against Germany in the 1990 semi-final than anything else. Also known for his occasional hair blunders. Vote for Chris here.......

10. David Beckham

87 votes Vote for me!

Famously received a red card during the 1998 last sixteen match with Argentina. Some people might say there were a few haircuts he should have been dismissed for also. Vote now.......
