In a week where WAGs and the England football team have been under the spotlight, we thought it would be apt to focus on who we consider to be the ten best Premier League WAGs in recent years. While Wayne Bridge’s former girlfriend Vanessa Perroncel may be grabbing all the headlines for her involvement with Chelsea captain John Terry, there’s no reason why the other beauties should be pushed aside. So from Cheryl Cole to Danielle Lloyd, the hottest Premier League WAGs are featured here, and make sure you check out the WAG Galleries that accompany the lovelies for a closer look at our top ten Premier League WAGs!

Just click on the individual images of the ten beauties below for more pictures of them:

10: Charlotte Mears – The first of Jermain Defoe’s former girlfriends to appear in this list, Charlotte Mears was even engaged to the Tottenham star who is well-renowned for being busy off the field. The blonde bombshell may have been slightly naive in believing that Defoe was the man for her, but at least she did get to enjoy an extremely glamorous lifestyle for a short period of time. Not adverse to fame, Mears appeared in the 2007 TV show WAG’s boutique, and now she is one of many good looking girls to become a ‘media personality’, as well as designing lingerie.

9: Radka Kocurova – The former Miss Czech Republic is the long term partner of Arsenal midfielder Tomas Rosicky and together they form the Posh and Becks of the Czech Republic. While Rosicky spends much of his time on the treatment table, Kocurova has spent time as a whether girl in her native country and must have brightened up the lives of many viewers. It would seem that Kocurova is also wife material for the Arsenal star even though Rosicky hasn’t exactly been the perfect boyfriend, with his misdemeanours in a hotel room generously forgiven.

8: Imogen Thomas – The 2003 Miss Wales winner shot to fame in 2006 when she graced British TV screens by appearing in Big Brother. Taking the now conventional route from reality TV to general celebrity, Imogen was a regular on the London nightclub scene after her TV appearance and presumably bumped into Defoe one night. However, like many of Defoe’s relationships this one was over before it begun, with the glamour girl stating that she liked to stay at home, whilst the Spurs striker is known to like to hit the town and party long into the night.

7: Vanessa Perroncel – The WAG at the centre of the current scandal involving current Chelsea star John Terry and former Blue Wayne Bridge, Perroncel must have caused quite a stir at Stamford Bridge. After failing to get a super-injunction, it came out in the press last week that Terry had an affair with Perroncel last year in what it hardly Dad of the Year behaviour. The story is so huge because the French model and actress was the former girlfriend of Terry’s now seemingly former best mate Wayne Bridge. It doesn’t take long to see why Vanessa Perroncel has footballers chasing after her.

6: Elena Bonzanni - Whilst Valon Behrami has been putting in eye-catching performances for West Ham in the Premier League, his girlfriend has been building up her very own fan base on the World Wide Web. Elena Bonzanni has become something on an internet sensation and it is easy to see why. Yugoslavian born Behrami has done well for himself in linking up with the Italian model who also likes to dabble in a bit of TV presenting, and let’s hope that Behrami stays with the Hammers so that Elena will grace British TV screens in the near future.

5: Michela Quattrociocche – Alberto Aquilani may not have overly impressed on the pitch in the Premier League this season, but off the pitch he has scored a stunner. Apart from being beautiful, Michela Quattrociocche has also stared in some films including ‘Sorry I Love You’, where her appearance is quite possibly the only reason why it is worth checking out. So at least when Aquilani was injured at the start of the season and was waiting to make his Liverpool debut he had someone to console him, and the pair are engaged so look out for their wedding shots in a glossy magazine soon!

4: Danielle Lloyd – The third and final former Defoe WAG to appear in the top ten, Lloyd is never one to shy away from the limelight. The former Miss England and Miss Great Britain got into strife in the 2007 edition of Celebrity Big Brother during a race row, whilst more recently she has shown a better side of herself by appearing in a documentary about domestic violence. Defoe isn’t the only footballer that the often unhealthily tanned Lloyd has been involved with either, with current fiancée Jamie O’Hara following in the footsteps of Teddy Sheringham and Marcus Bent.

3: Nikoleta Lozanova – Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov certainly seems to have a way with the ladies and any of a number of his flings could have made it onto this list. But Bulgarian model Nikoleta Lozanova is definitely a cut above the rest and would be enough to distract anyone from giving their best on the field. Interestingly Berbatov actually denied having an affair with the stunning Lozanova, which may have something to do with the fact that she is the current girlfriend of Bulgarian crime boss Georgi Stoilov, but given Berba’s track record this is hard to believe.

2: Natalie Suliman – Sunderland midfielder Kieran Richardson might not be one of the very top players in England, but his taste in women certainly deserves a place in the Premier League. Natalie Suliman’s cleavage has been hard to miss recently as it has been brandished around British cities as part of Marks and Spencer’s billboard advertising campaign and it isn’t hard to see why she was chosen as the top model. Suliman was first spotted by talent agencies at a swimming pool in Islington, and Richardson’s girlfriend is not just any WAG, she’s an M&S WAG.

1: Cheryl Cole – One of a few WAGs who can argue that they are more famous than then footballing partners, the Geordie lass got married to Chelsea defender Ashley Cole back in 2006. Well-known for being part of girl group Girls Aloud and featuring as a judge on the X-Factor, the diminutive pop star leads the way when it comes to footballers WAGs. While her music might not tick be to many people’s taste, when it comes to beauty she certainly ticks all the boxes. Who knows why Ashley cheated on her a couple of years ago, but he’s definitely a lucky boy to wake up to Cheryl every morning.

So there you have it, I think you’d have to agree that the above ladies are certainly a fine looking bunch. But are there any current Premier League WAGs that you feel run these ten women close and deserve a spot in our top ten?
