Blame it on the boots!

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.
