They're away to Rubin Kazan, and they are all wearing undersuit things, gloves and scarves... bloody wimps. You wouldn't catch English, Scottish, Irish players doing that. I didn't know scarves were even allowed to be worn.

Was not Drogba asked to remove one last season? Elf and safety in that some one might grab the end of it and strangle him.

Note to M Richards (if selected)

It is irritating when people wear gloves with short sleeves. Pointless or what?

disagree. Not that I do wear gloves with short sleeves, but your fingers biologically (due to the nerve endings in your fingers) are more predisposed to feeling the cold. I'd rather have chilly forearms than really cold fingers

Agree with this argument. I can run or play football in a t-shirt but when it is raining/flipping cold my hands go numb due to my long, skinny arms and legs.

Well I always move my fingers a lot for some reason :rolleyes:

Ahhh I can't make an argument against that, fair play.

To be fair, they did get on a plane at 27 degrees, and then five hours later get off the plane at -3.

They're not so much scarves as neckies, woolly tube things - I got one for snow boarding. You lose loads of heat through your neck cos there's always shit loads of blood pumping through it, so if you keep your neck warm the rest of you stays warm.

That said if you need one playing football you're not working hard enough.

Not sure where I stand on the whole, gloves etc thing. I think if your playing at the sort of level I play at on a Saturday if you wear gloves you are immediatly branded as a puff, as it just sends out the wrong message, it would be basically suicide if I wore them. But I see no harm in someone such as Robbie wearing them, the english conditions are absolultely nothing like what he is used to back home, so it makes sense for him to keep as warm as possible. To some this all up

Meh
