    Capello banned Ketchup.


    I'd ban brightly coloured boots.

    Black, white or the same colour as the socks only!

    See, it doesn't even look good.

    Gold is the worst. So vein.

    I just see it as players trying to stand out from the rest of the team.

    I'd make them all have moustaches. We were brilliant when a few of our players had them!

    Spearing would look great with a big tash.

    Carroll with a handle bar mustache.

    Skrtel with a mafia tash.

    Sometimes you need something, if you play a winter team sport surely you'd know this?

  17. Why ban such pointless things that won't effect games...? Players are superstitious and if these things help them mentally then why stop them...? I'd encourage them to do anything that they think will help them as long as it is within reason.

    Their football kit is their uniform, and the teams identity, and that includes foot wear.

    With bright boots, I often see it as players trying to stand out on the pitch, when they should fit right in with there team mates. If they want to stand out, they can do it with great skill.

    A lot of employers tell you what colour shoes to wear.

    I remember Hiddink banned track suits and I Pods for when players were rebresenting there team, but not playing or training. They had to wear suits, look tidy, and be presentable.

  19. So, if a player feels comfy in a certain pair and truly believes that the boots are helping him to play well, possibly contributing to scoring goals too, you would still ban them...?

    Headphones.

    Not great for team spirit - and quite frankly rude!
