Fernando Torres currently wears the high performing Nike T90 Laser III Elite soccer cleat. The Chelsea striker, who finally got his first goal for the club after nearly 1,000 minutes without a strike last weekend, is wearing the Summit White/Black Metallic Silver/Crimson colorway, which features a super soft K-Leather. There has been immense pressure on Torres since his huge transfer from EPL

Wesley Sneijder wears the Nike T90 Laser III Elite Soccer Cleat. The Inter Milan playmaker has been in terrific form over the past 12 months, having won the Champions League led Holland to the final of the World Cup. This season his form has continued in Serie A, with Manchester United upping their intention to sign the 26 year old this summer. Sneijder prefers to wear the Elite version of the

Lionel Messi currently wears the Adidas F50 adiZero soccer cleat. The Argentinian superstar celebrated scoring his 50th goal of the season this past weekend, while wearing the Warning/Black/White colorway. Interestingly, Messi chooses to wear the Leather version of the F50, unlike many other players who decide to wear the Synthetic version. Another interesting fact is that Messi chooses to wear

New York Red Bulls have a star in the making in striker Juan Agudelo. He currently wears the Adidas F50 adiZero soccer cleat in the Lightning White/Radiant Pink/Cyan colorway. The 18 year old has made already made a name for himself on the international stage, with big goals against South Africa and Argentina. Playing alongside Thierry Henry seems to be a great position for Agudelo, with the

Newly crowned English Premier League "PFA player of the Year", Gareth Bale, wears the latest version of the Adidas F50 adiZero Prime. His chosen colorway of late has been the very colorful and eccentric Lightning White/Radiant Pink/Cyan version. Bale's performances for club team Totthenham Hotspurs have been nothing short of brilliant this season. I find the F50 adiZero Prime to be the ideal

Landon Donovan currently wears the Nike CTR360 Maestri II. The LA Galaxy star has been one of the main focal points of Nike's advertising campaigns in the US, primarily because of his performances on the national stage. He also had a very successful loan spell last season with Everton. Currently, the colorway of choice for Donovan is the White/Black/Tour Yellow version. The CTR360 Maestri II

Manchester United Striker Javier Hernandez wears the very consistent performing Nike Tiempo Legend III soccer cleats. Also known as Chicharito (or little pea), the Mexican has been an absolute sensation in his debut English Premier League season. Since his move to Manchester, Chicharito has consistently worn the Nike Tiempo Legend and they have been instrumental in seeing him surpass the double

Real Madrid and Germany attacking midfielder Mesut Ozil wears the current Red Plum/Windchill/Volt/Black colorway in the extremely popular Nike Superfly III range. Ozil, who transferred to Real Madrid in the summer of 2010 for $20 million is one of the most exciting prospects in European prospects - and the Superfly III matches his playing style.

Wayne Rooney wore the latest colorway to be released in the Nike T90 Laser III colorway during Manchester United's Champions League clash with Chelsea. There is no doubting Nike will be exceptionally pleased with Rooney's return to form in recent times, with the English striker putting in some scintillating performances. This version of the T90 Laser III comes in a White/Black/Chlorine Blue and

Cristiano Ronaldo debuted his personalized Safari version of the Nike Superfly III in Real Madrid's clash with Barcelona last weekend. This was designed by and specifically for Ronaldo, with a safari print covering the entire boot. A bright inner volt yellow graphic has been added for visual effect.

Adidas have released their latest Predator X release - this time in a Black/Black or "Blackout" version. I like this release a lot and I am sure that I'm not the only one who does. The Predator range is designed to offer power and accuracy when striking the ball. You only need to look at David Beckham as an example of the type of player that Adidas target with this release!

Oh yes! The world of soccer boots has again been rocked - and this time it is the turn of Adidas! This latest lightweight boot is named the Adidas Adizero Prime, and it weighs in at an incredibly light 5.2oz. Of course, they are going to be best suited for really fast soccer players who like to move quick with the ball, but my question is how will they hold up to harsh challenges? Are players

It is the time of year again! After an exciting summer of World Cup Action, the EPL is ready to kick off again. It all starts on Saturday morning with Champions League participants Tottenham Hotspurs taking on big spenders Man City. It is sure to be an absolute cracker of a game, with both teams having high hopes for the season ahead. On Monday, the final game in the first round takes place

News is coming through that the Puma PowerCat 1.10 will be released in the next 2 weeks. The newest release will be an alternative to Puma's current V1.10 range. Some features of the new cleat include an off center lacing system, a new type of 'power' design. Also, unlike the V1.08 and V1.10 that are made of synthetic materials, the PowerCat will be created using a supersoft K-leather. That is

I have to be honest, I was not sure whether Landon Donovan was going to make an impression on the Premier League or not. Well, after 3 games, I really think he has a right to be playing among the best in the business. In Everton's midweek game with Sunderland, the American striker scored his first Premier League goal. And it was a pretty nice goal too! He took a ball out of the air at the top of

The worst winter in Britain for over 100 years! The debate over a winter break has gone to-an-fro for the past few years, and there is no doubt that this past weekend will increase the arguement that taking a two week break is the way to go. Normally, this set of fixtures is one of the most highly anticipated of the season, as it sees teams taking the field for the first time in the New Year.

In a small village, called Castledermot, in Ireland you will find a soccer team that is built around tradition and Success; Castle Villa FC. Founded in 1969 by Walter Brooks, the team celebrated its 40th year in existence last October. In that time, the club has won many Dublin leagues, and in recent times has been one of the more dominant teams in the Kildare and district league. There was also

Is it true that Owen Coyle is going to move from Burnley to Bolton? To be honest, it probably will happen, but in my opinion it is not a good move for a gifted manager like Coyle. This past summer, I played with Ventura County Fusion versus Coyle’s Burnley team, and boy was I impressed. At that stage, Burnley were people’s favorites to drop straight back to the Championship. But after that game,

This past summer, the Homeless World Cup took place in Milan, Italy from the 6th to the 13th of September. It was a huge success with 48 nations and 500 players taking part. One of the benefits to holding an event like this is the fact that it gives homeless players the opportunity to focus on something outside of drugs and alcohol...and it is an opportunity to represent your nation!

Absolutely love this one, just for the fact that you see how much a pair of cleats mean to a player. To quote Stevie G, he states that "What happens is you get used to one boot and you really fall in love with it and then some way they find better ways to improve the boot". Lets be honest, every time we wear a new pair of cleats they feel like the bee's knees, only for a better pair to be

So, this is one that has definitely touched a nerve with me! Fifa, the world governing organization for soccer, decided 2 weeks before the final round of European qualifying matches for the 2010 World Cup, that the teams that qualified for the playoffs would be seeded! This meant that out of the 8 teams that qualified, 4 would be seeded as higher rankings and not have to play each other (ie

Adidas Predator X - It is the talk of the town right now and is about to be released onto the US market. There are a lot of positive things being said about the cleat, and after getting to test a pair I would agree. Actually, in my opinion they will probably be one of the more sought after cleats come the Christmas rush. And that will be no easy feat as Nike have raised their game with recent

It has been a qualifying campaign full of twists and turns, and the final round of games was no different! It took a goal from Jonathan Bornstein in the 94th minute to claim a 2-2 draw for the US mens soccer team against Costa Rica. Because the US tied, Mexico would have they beaten T&T. There game finished in a 2-2 draw also. If the US had lost the game, Mexico would have been crowned CONCACAF

For those of you who have no idea who Brian Clough is, you are going to want to make sure and see this movie about the legend that was. The movie was released in the UK back in March, but it has only now made its way across the pond and opens in New York and Los Angeles on Oct 9th.

This could be one of the best Penalties I have seen taken, the keeper doesn't even move!! This happened last weekend in Russia, when a fan ran onto the field of the Saturn vs Spartak Moscow game and buried the ball in the corner of the net! It is a great penalty, but lets be honest, where is security? These two clowns just run free on the field! Gotta love it though!

So, you are thinking of getting yourself a new soccer jersey but dont know which to get (maybe you are a Portsmouth fan and need to change it up a bit!!), well what about getting yourself an old school retro jersey?

Quite ironic if you ask me...Man City spend over $100 million on new strikers yet Michael Owen, who was signed on a free transfer by United was the one to score the winning goal in the Manchester Derby! The game finished 4-3, with Owen scoring the winning goal in the 95th minute. This Derby will go down as one of the greatest Derby games of all time, and it will come as no surprise that this game

Portsmouth have endured a pretty bad start to the 2009/10 season. Actually, it has been the worst start ever in the Premier League, with 6 losses on the trot. Paul Hart has been assured of his position as manager, and with the takeover there are sure to be big signings come the January transfer market. For now, the boys at Pompey need to battle for a win, or even a draw, to break the losing

Last week, Manchester City accepted the charge handed down by the English FA to Emmanuel Adebayor after his rash challenge on Arsenal's Robin Van Persie in their Premier League encounter. Adebayor and City did not hand in an appeal against the three match ban that the English FA handed out. All well and good as, from my point of view, Adebayor did rake his cleat along Van Persie's face. In light

Don’t expect any big transfers at Stamford Bridge for the next 12 months; FIFA, the world governing body have banned Chelsea from registering any new players for the next two transfer windows.

Seattle Sounders defeated D.C United in the final of the Lamar Hunt Open Cup on Wednesday night, and sealed the first trophy for the first year franchise. No doubt, people were expecting an entertaining game and a close result..and that is exactly what they got. I would say that it was one of the more entertaining finals in recent times and shows why the tournament is still important to teams.

I personally have a few pairs of cleats, my slip in shin guards, Chelsea Leather food and my wash bag! Pretty simple really. Luckily for me, I get my cleats for free so my number is probably not as high as the normal player. But when it comes down to

I absolutely love this! Why? Because it is what soccer is all about...reaching around the world, to the farthest corner with the ability to bring joy to others! And soccer can do that because of its universal power. For me, soccer is a way of life, and giving these young potential superstars the opportunity to kick a ball around is priceless. When the school teachers admits that school

Cristiano Ronaldo made his dream move to Real Madrid this summer, but he will forever be a legend for what he did at Manchester United. This is one of my favorite commercials for the Portugese winger, and oppitimizes his status at Manchester United. The commercial was released just after Christmas this year, after he had won the World Player of the year award. My favorite part is the kid's

I just wanted to send out a reminder about tomorrows Champions League clash between Celtic and Arsenal, I have a feeling it will be a classic clash! Not often do you get the opportunity to see two huge teams from different leagues play this early in the Champions League, especially in the qualifiers! Both teams had good wins over the weekend, but Arsenal's was without a doubt the most impressive,

On June 25th 2009, a cast of pro athlethes took to Nike Field in Sara D. Roosevelt Park in New York to take place in the Steve Nash Celebrity soccer game.

Chelsea got a piece of revenge over Manchester United for their penalty loss in the Champions League two seasons ago. In what is the showcase for the Premier League season Chelsea and UNited put on a very entertaining game, finishing in normal time 2-2.

In a deserved mark of respect, thousands of fans and friends of Sir Bobby Robson flocked to St. James park to pay respects to one of the true legends of the game of soccer. On Friday, Sir Bobby lost his battle with Cancer, a battle that he had overcome 4 times before. At the age of 76, Sir Bobby passed away at his home in Durham with his family surrounding him.

Cristiano Ronaldo made his debut for Real Madrid on Monday night in Ireland, in a pre-season friendly with Shamrock Rovers. The game, played in the newly built Tallaght stadium in Dublin, finished 1-0 to Madrid, but Ronaldo was rather inefficient in his 45 minutes of action. He did have 2 opportunities to score from free kicks, but his first went over the bar while his second hit the wall. It was

It is official; Emmanuel Adebayor has made the move from Arsenal to Man City, as manager Mark Hughes continues his huge spending spree before the start of the new season. What a signing! Arsenal were happy to let the Togo striker leave after he made it known that he did not want to stay at the club. And with Russian striker Arshavin showing so much promise at the end of last season, I am sure

It is official; Cristiano Ronlado is a Real Madrid player. At a packed Santiago Bernebeu, Ronaldo was presented to the Madrid faithful, holding the title as the most expensive player in football. Ronlado strutted out in his new Real Madrid kit, and as we can exclusively revel, he was sporting the number '9' jersey. The Madrid supporters went wild for their new Portugese playmaker, and even more

Check out Micheal Owen's first interview as a Manchester United player. Owen's move to United could be an absolutely ingenious move by Alex Ferguson, pending Owen staying away from injury. In my opinion, it is a very smart signing. Owen comes to United on a free transfer, and will be paid an a pay you play contract. How can you go wrong? In a time when Real Madrid are splurging on players, over

As a very close friend of Eric Frimpong for 2 years, and having spent a lot of time with him during his trial and after the verdict, I maintain that his story is an example of a weakness in the US judicial system.

This is a great video clip! So, after the US performance at the Confederations Cup, some shows have decided to jump on the bandwagon and discuss the topic. We already know that Jon Stewart is a huge soccer fan, but now Stephen Colbert has got into soccer mode, ala this fun segment featured on the Colbert Report earlier in the week entitled 'Is it time to care about soccer?'.

Thierry Henry has admitted that he would one day like to play in MLS, with New York Red Bulls to be exact. Speaking to the Spanish media, Henry stated that he has a desire to follow David Beckham and help advance the game in the US. Henry is 31 years old, and with 2-years left on his contract at Barcelona, the Frenchman could very well choose to move across at the age of 33. Henry said: "Could I

When it comes to a top Premier League team you would expect big team bonuses at the end of the season. But what is the deal with relegated Newcastle United players receiving a £10 million bonus?

The economy is benefiting Manchester United in the transfer of Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid!

An early 9th minute Toquero strike gave Athletic some hope, but that was quickly squashed as Barca ran riot. Yaya Toure got on the board first for Barca, before a Lionel Messi strike, a Bojan effort, and a Xavi free-kick made

What a semi final it turned out to be at Stamford Bridge between Chelsea and Barcelona. After a pretty boring 0-0 draw last week in Spain, this tie turned out to a very entertaining affair. Chelsea took the lead in the 9th minute through a spectacular Michael Essien volley, soon after they had a clear penalty appeal turned down when Malouda appeared to be taken down in the box.

Aston Villa crashed out of the Uefa cup tonight, a cup that they could have won for this season, against CSKA Moskow 2-0. Martin O'Neill had told the Villa fans on Tuesday that he was taking a makeshift reserve side so that he could save first team legs for the Premier League and their fight for a Champions League spot.
