Height 183..i dnt get that at all. Torres isn't 6'1 agreed, but there's no way Gerrard or Lampard were ever taller than them, he in fact edged them imo..i think Torres could be near 6'0.5..id compromise and say he was 6'0.25,but no way just a flat 6 ft when he edges every other 6ft listed player ive seen him with.
appe 6ft0.5 said on 21/Jul/15
@Height183 I agree with you about Torres w/ Lampard , but I know at least 5-6 friends who have met him (and two of these friends are height "addicted" like me) and they all told he s 185. Personally I think he s between 184 and 185 if measured in a point of the day, but 184 likelier.
Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 20/Jul/15
@rory I agree with you. He can be listed 184 or 185. He is no 183 or 186
Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 20/Jul/15
@sasser221 Bonucci is a legit 188 but not 190. He is as tall as chiellini if not a little taller (chiellini is 187). 186 is out of question
Height183 said on 20/Jul/15
There is no way Torres is that tall! He is just a decent 6'0'' at best. Maybe 6'0.25'' on a good day. This guy was looking shorter than regular 6'0'' guys like Lampard at times and even Gerrard back in his Liverpool days.
Calling a flat 6'0'' guy like Torres 6'1'', is an insult to legit 6'1'' guys.

appe 6ft0.5
Id say Torres out of bed after a good 8/9 hr sleep would measure exactly 186cm straight out of bed, although on a lesser nights sleep measuring slightly under e.g 185.8cm is probable.His lowest measurement is probably about 183.8-184cm imo.
sasser221 said on 18/Jul/15

@appe 6ft 0.5. Torres after a good 8 hr sleep would probably hit bang on 186cm id say yeah, maybe after less sleep hes be just shy like 185.8 straight out.

@Lezar there are a lot of photos of Casillas with Sergio Ramos. I think everyone here agree with the fact Ronaldo is 185-186 and Sergio Ramos 182-183: in most of these photos Casillas looks 2 cm under Sergio Ramos height, in others the difference is less. I think the 181 mark fits him perfectly but I wouldn't rule out he could be also 182. 180 seems too low for him IMO
Rory said on 15/Jul/15
appe6ft0.5
I think the final picture i showed full body suggests Torres might just edge Lampard as well, i mean of course its not going to be obvious because my point is yh, Lampards a strong 6 ft and Torres is 6'0.5, so the difference isnt that noticeable. I have compared Kuyt with Torres in the past and again, id say Torres just edges him mainly, yes that pic you posted does Torres no favors and Kuys looks taller but many other comparisons between the two suggest to me Torres might just edge him. Kuyt and Lampard are probably within a few milimetres of one another and Torres 0.25 or so taller than both.
Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 15/Jul/15
@Rory for you Torres wakes up in the morning at 186cm?
Lezar said on 14/Jul/15
how tall is casillas? Has been described as 6ft and 6ft1 but i think 5'11 should be a better listing
what do you think?
Rory said on 14/Jul/15
Well my money would firmly be on Torres being a tad taller than lampard as my pics would suggest.
appe 6ft0.5 said on 13/Jul/15
Click Here This photo makes me think a lot: Fernando Torres next to 183cm Dirk kuyt doesn' t seem taller ( Torres is slouching but also kuyt has not a good posture)
appe 6ft0.5 said on 13/Jul/15
@Rory Imo only from the first photo you can see Torres slightly higher. Anyway, I' m pretty sure Torres can' t be a flat 183 or 183,5 so let's say a legit 184 (I heard many people saying he is 185 at least). To me there is also a good possibility that Frank is a legit 184 guy (he' s taller than Gerrard and in many photos he doesn' t look more than an inch under Terry who is 186 or 187)
Height183 said on 13/Jul/15
They are both roughly the same height Rory. One of them could be a hair taller than the other, it's really hard to spot. Generally speaking, Fernando can look 6'0'' - 6'0.5''
Rory said on 11/Jul/15
Height183, generally speaking Torres looks like he edges Lampard, its easier to find pics of that than where Lamps looks taller. IMO Torres is 6’0.5, Lampard is 6’0, perhaps 6’0.25. Such as these...
Look at the pic in this article of lamps and torres..

@pipper: Van Persie is a little over 6'1''. No way he is 6'2'' though! I think 186cm is a good fit for him.
Thierry Henry is just about 6'2'' and has at least 2 Cms on RVP. Ignore RVP's hair, which is giving him some height here in this picture.

Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 5/Jul/15
@Height 183 these are Good photos, anyway when played for Chelsea, Fernando has always looked very similar to Frank in height. The point is if Frank is more 184 than 183. Infact, IMO, Frank is taller than 182-183 Gerrard: if Frank is 184, let's say Torres is 184 too.

Rob,how tall do you think Luka Modric is? He's listed as 5'9" (175cm) but to me he looks more like 5'7"( 170cm). The reason is because he is smaller than the players who are listed smaller than 5'9"for example Marcelo is 5'8.5 but he is taller than Modric who is listed as 5'9". Also Modric is more than 3" shorter than 6'0" (183cm) Gareth Bale.

Thanx for football(soccer) page great addition.
In general footballer height listings are pretty inaccurate, rugby seems to be more accurate in comparison. And it's not always upgrading there's alot downgrading aswell in footballer height listings.
