Anyone else glad that this doesn’t seem to have become a trend in the footballing world? I heard that Kyle Walker does it to improve circulation but I don’t see how it could make that much difference. They are just a pair of socks? Do any other players do it too? appleCORR
I think so - I know Kyle Walker seems to be the only player who seems to have stuck with it though. Maybe it's a superstition with him now? appleCORR
The site i write for has actually touched upon it and from what reports I've managed to find, it seems like its to relive pressure from his calf muscles due to how tight the socks are
Surely they can't be that tight. And it's not like he is Roberto Carlos or Jack Grealish (never skips a leg day) I just find the whole thing really weird. Plus I feel sorry for the poor kit man who has to do all the cutting. appleCORR
