One's a paralegal, others are interior designers, software engineers and PR experts - all impressive professions that may not immediately come to mind when you think of WAGs. But with a new generation of smart, independent, and of course, glamorous women poised to take centre stage during the FIFA World Cup, it might be time to retire any dated stereotypes. It's been 20 years since Coleen Rooney, Victoria Beckham and Cheryl Tweedy were branded 'hooligans with visas' by a Spanish newspaper after their antics during Germany's 2006 tournament generated more headlines than the games.Yet England's support squad this year in Mexico, US and Canada, are unlikely to cause such a splash.With the likes of Dani Dyer (wife of Jarrod Bowen) and Rebecca Cooke (wife of Phil Foden) benched after their husbands missed out on selection, it's down to the more low-key partners of Harry Kane, Declan Rice and Ollie Watkins to bring the glamour expected of the footballers' wives and girlfriends But who will lead the way? Who's the biggest fashionista, with designer bags galore, and who's the most popular on social media? It's all to play for at this year's World Cup.As the tournament kicks off, the Daily Mail reveals how the WAGs power list stands so far and the surprising frontrunners in the fashion, glamour and popularity stakes...
