It's no secret that Wayne Rooney likes a roll-up (Golden Virginia), Ballotelli enjoys a Marlboro (the Red's, NOT lites) and many players in Serie A light up outside of cafe's and in their Mazeratti's on the way home from training... Am I missing any players who like a lung full of carbon monoxide to make it a perfect day?
I think Gallas was the last Arsenal player to be known for having a love for tobacco (Silk Cut), but Wenger cocked his leg at Gallas and demanded he was not to smoke in public again. None of the current Arsenal players smoke, although Ramsey, Frimpong and Gibbs all apparently enjoy the occasional toot on an E-Cig.
I'm warming to the E-Cigs too, but only the menthol ones. Cheers!
Players who smoke..?

The most famous was Socrates - He used to smoke on the pitch something like 3-5 per game!

Steed Malbranque was, and probably still is, a 'heavy' smoker
Whilst at Sunderland, if I remember rightly, he only ever lasted an hour on the pitch

I thought that was an urban myth? Is that true?

Duncan McKenzie smoked in the shower after the match. Cashley likes the old cigar I believe.

Teddy Sheringham and David Ginola both smoked up a storm...
famously Johan Cruyff smoked
players now, I guess loads do and conceal it well, perhaps the make a bit on the side as the salmon are a good earner in the local pubs (Witherspoons)
plenty like a beer too....
even a fruit cider.
