Football Boots - Champions League Boot Spotting - 11/03/10

Football Boots - Champions League Boot Spotting - 11/03/10

There was some explosive action in the Champions League and a feast of football boots to gorge our eyes upon, here's the SoccerBible's pick of the best from the last 16 games played this week...

DAVID BECKHAM (AC Milan)


Beckham received a moving welcome at Old Trafford after he came on as a substitute, and was probably AC Milan's best player. Beckham was wearing his own range of Predator X football boots, yet continues to wear a Predator PowerSwerve sole-plate.

TOMAS ROSICKY (Arsenal)

Rosicky recently made the change into the new Puma PowerCat football boots, and is continuing to wear the black colourway. Rosicky must clearly be impressed with the leather upper, as he has previously worn the Puma King and Nike Tiempo football boots.

JUAN VARGAS (Fiorentina)

 

The Umbro Speciali football boots have gained a reputation this season for being a comfortable boot, with a soft upper that provides great touch and feel for the ball. A statement backed up by Fiorentina's star player Vargas, who opts for the latest white/black/gold colourway.

JORGE FUCILE (FC Porto)

 

It was nice to see Fucile wearing the Nike Laser II football boots against Arsenal, a range of football boots that are still prominent in local football leagues everywhere. Fucile was wearing the k leather versions, which were popular with Fernando Torres.

MIRALEM PJANIC (Lyon)

 

Pjanic thumped a half volley past Casillas to break Madrid's hearts, and end their dreams of reaching the final to be played at the Bernabeu. Pjanic has a unique boot choice as he wears the Beckham PowerSwerves, but it can't be denied the silver and gold is a stunning colourway!

SILVESTRE VARELA (FC Porto)

 

Varela was playing in a Puma v1.06 football boot, with the much loved grass design. These football boots were a real favourite among boot fans, and are a modern day classic. Green colourways are always popular, and we'd love to see these boots hitting the pitches again.

JI-SUNG PARK (Manchester United)

 

Park is an all action midfielder who never stops working for the team, and the boots he chooses to wear are the Nike Tiempo Legend III's, a performance leather boot suitable for all positions.

SAMIR NASRI (Arsenal)

 

Nasri took on the Porto defence to score the goal of the round so far, outfoxing three defenders Nasri struck the ball in the far corner for a tremendous solo goal. Nasri was playing in the Champions League F50i football boots, and opted for the leather upper.

ANDREA PIRLO (AC Milan)

 

There have been various pictures of Pirlo floating around the web speculating over his sole-plates, and although this picture isn't conclusive it follows the general consensus that Pirlo has a carbon-fibre plate on Nike Tiempo Legend football boots.

MARK VAN BOMMEL (Bayern Munich)

 

A great double shot of Mark Van Bommel and Thomas Muller wearing the new Champions League adidas Predator X football boots. And despite some initial scepticism, these boots look really good on the pitch, and are definitely a good match for the Bayern Munich away strip.

GUTI (Real Madrid)

 

This is the first time we've seen Guti wearing the Puma v1.10 football boots. Previously, the creative midfielder has worn Puma King's and Puma v1.08's, but yellow certainly seems to be the in colour at the moment!

BASTIAN SCHWEINSTEIGER (Bayern Munich)

 

The white/blue adiPure III football boots are a classy, good looking boot. Designed to be comfortable and offer superior ball touch and feel, it's no surprising they are worn by the likes of Schweinsteiger, Kaka, Alonso and Lampard.
