It may not be Nike’s fault, but now they’re being blamed for the Rooney injury by Liverpool’sCraig Johnston:
“These injuries are a direct cause of the studs sticking when they should be releasing.”
Funny thing – Johnston worked on the adidas “Predator” shoes, so I’m not sure he’s exactly unbiased.
I know that adidas have had problems with their footwear as well.
One comment on “Blame it on the boots!”
Last world cup it was Gerrard, his Predators made from kangaroo skin stopped him quicker than his bones could.
