In an age of endless and sometimes needless football boot innovations, sometimes a simple nostalgia pop is all us fans need to be happy.Sock boots this, no laces that, whatever happened to the standard fold over tongue? After all, it was that era of football boots that were worn for some of the game's most iconic goals.Well, adidas have come to their senses and given us exactly what we want and need, announcing a limited re-release of their iconic Predator Mania, in its traditional black, red and white colourway.

Arsenal star Beth Mead criticised Adidas as she claimed the club’s female players were not offered newly-released training kit.Arsenal and Adidas have been collaborating since 2019, producing wave after wave of iconic kits, training gear and leisurewear.This year is no different, with Arsenal dropping a new training range today.An advert for the kit was shared by the Arsenal Women Twitter account, accompanied by the caption: "New year, New training gear. Available now from Arsenal Direct."Mead, one of Arsenal’s star players this season, took issue with the post, revealing that the training kit had not been issued to her or her teammates."Would be nice if we actually got this training kit," she wrote on Twitter. Her post was shared widely but has since been deleted.Fans joined in on the criticism of Adidas, with one posting: "No women’s cuts and no women’s names/numbers available to purchase for this new training range, the women’s players themselves haven’t even received their training gear."But stick Leah Williamson in the promo and everything’s fixed right!".Sports journalist Josh Bunting agreed, writing: "Fair play to Beth Mead for tweeting Adidas, equal rights are so important in football, they deserve just as much as what the mens side get."It’s an absolute disgrace that they’ve been neglected with just simple basic training wear that, let’s face it, everybody can order."

Adidas have just released an unbelievable limited edition, blacked-out pair of their iconic Copa Mundials.As well as looking retro with an iconic throwback style, they are absolutely fresh and completely scream Sunday League – oh how we miss it so.Mirroring the recent Predator Accelerator update, these take on a personality all of their own. Largely based on the original 1982 World Cup Mundials but with an all-new silver chrome soleplate.‘Core Grey’ is the colour given to the iconic three-stripe design, so, yes – it is still visible.One noticeable change is the shorter tongue – although a stark contrast to the originals, this does not spoil the look.The Copa Mundial boots are perhaps the most famous of all Adidas boots. The ‘Eternal Class’ is new takes on iconic boots.The Copa Mundial (Spanish for 'World Cup') was first released in 1979, giving it a nice, lengthy lead-in to the 1982 tournament held in Spain.

Manchester United have smashed their home and away kits for the 2020/21 season.Indeed, the red home shirt, which features distinct gold and black lines across the front, came fifth in GiveMeSport’s ranked list of every Premier League team’s home shirt for the new campaign.The black away strip is also a very smart design.So Adidas are 2/2 when it comes to the home and away tops. Could they make it 3/3 with the release of the third jersey?It would appear not.Images of Man United’s third shirt have leaked online and they haven’t gone down well with the club’s supporters.The shirt features white and black diagonal stripes in what is a very bold look.In the photos, ‘OT 110’ is written on the inside collar to mark the 110th anniversary of Old Trafford.FootyHeadlines have the images. Check them out here.

Adidas have released a remake of the iconic red Predator Mania from 2002.Undeniably the most iconic boot of the 21st century, Adidas have put out a few remakes recently in various colours.They were made famous by some of the biggest names in football showing them off on a weekly basis - most notably David Beckham and Zinedine Zidane.The three stripes down the side, the fold-over tongue and rubber on the instep; they're boot-perfection, really.And the red version might be the most sought-after, though, as it is arguably the best looking of the bunch.

Move over Paul Pogba, Neymar is here.The Manchester United midfielder has lost his title as football’s most expensive player after Neymar secured his €222 million move to Paris Saint-Germain on Thursday.The Brazilian has signed a five-year contract at the Parc des Princes and will be unveiled on Friday.Neymar said goodbye to Barcelona in an emotional video on Instagram, telling his 79 million followers: “An athlete needs challenges and for the second time in my life I will contradict my father.”The 25-year-old also reserved special praise with Lionel Messi, whom he formed an incredible partnership with at the Camp Nou.

When it comes to football's greatest ever player, there are a number of candidates.Diego Maradona, Pele and Alfredo Di Stefano are all recognised as greats, while Ronaldinho, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo can each stake claims from the modern era.FourFourTwo magazine attempted to identify football's GOAT this week by releasing their 'Top 100 Football Players of All Time'.At number 10 is Brazilian Ronaldo, while Ferenc Puskas, Zinedine Zidane and Franz Beckenbauer occupy ninth, eighth and seventh respectively.Di Stefano then comes in at sixth, with Ronaldo fifth and Johan Cruyff fourth.And in the top three, FourFourTwo claim Pele is the third greatest ever player, Messi is second and Argentina legend Maradona is number one.Check out their 'Top 100 Football Players of All Time' here.There are arguments to be made for each of the top 10, but many now believe Messi has surpassed Pele and Maradona as football's greatest following a quite incredible career at Barcelona.The 30-year-old may not have lifted the World Cup with Argentina, but he's won everything there is to possibly win domestically and, in terms of individual ability, is unrivalled.Messi's sponsors, Adidas, certainly think that's the case anyway judging by their recent activity on Twitter.Adidas unveiled the all-new Ocean Storm Nemeziz football boots on Friday with the following tweet which, of course, featured Messi.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the heavy favourite to win the 2017 Ballon d’Or following his two-goal effort in Real Madrid’s win over Juventus on Saturday.The Portuguese superstar didn’t produce the best performance of his career but it was his brace that paved the way for Los Blancos to secure their 12th European Cup and their third in four years.Ronaldo reached 600 career goals and became the first man to score in three Champions League finals. The numbers speak for themselves - he is a legend.The former Manchester United star is 32 now and is playing fewer minutes than ever before. Yet Zinedine Zidane’s plan of conserving Ronaldo’s energy until the latter stages of the competition worked to perfection - he scored 10 goals in the quarter-finals, semi-finals and final.Those ties came against Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid and Juventus. Insane.And, worryingly for the rest of Europe, the forward insists he still feels “like a young boy”.“What is important is that I did again, an amazing season, me and my team-mates won the double,” Ronaldo said after Saturday’s win, per The Guardian. “I think the people don’t have words to criticise because the numbers don’t lie.
