We always used to talk about how rare it was for the Liverpool full-back to have boots, as he tried out different models from his previous sponsor and didn't have a defined style or model. But with his arrival at adidas, I think the destination was clear: the adidas Predator football boots, given his touch, passing and precise crosses.
The truth is that Liverpool's number 66 is a different kind of full-back because, from the side, he sometimes exhibits actions more typical of a midfielder than a full-back (as he played at the beginning of his career). This is precisely why the extra grip, arming and precise touch of the Predator fit his game perfectly.
But that's not all. The signing brought another surprise: the Englishman chose the match against Manchester City to debut the new fully customised adidas Predator model with red details to match the colour of his shirt.
What a debut! Not only did he have a great performance, he also scored a goal with a cross shot, proving that his new Predators work perfectly.
And that's it: we have a new player in the form of adidas, who have released the first images of the new Predator. We still don't know anything for certain, but we can tell you that adidas is making a strong push for next year, and this signing is just one part of their plans.
