Adidas criticised over Murphy and Gerrard injuries

Last updated : 26 May 2002 By Kop Talk News


Adidas have been heavily criticised over their new Predator Blade football boots because several big name players who wear them have sustained injuries.

Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy wears the boots and he was recently sent back from the England camp injured. Club team-mate Steven Gerrard also wears the boots and so does Manchester United midfielder David Beckham.

Rival firms and certain media sources are trying to blame Adidas for England losing the trio of players.
