Nicolas Anelka debuted the new PUMA v1.10 football boot in the UK on Saturday although it wasn’t an occasion to remember for the Frenchman as his Chelsea side lost their unbeaten record as they succumbed 3 – 1 defeat at Wigan Athletic.
Anelka, who was the Premier League’s top scorer last season wearing the v1.08, saw his side go behind to a goal from Titus Bramble before his striking partner Didier Drogba grabbed his 100th Chelsea goal to bring the Londoners level.
But any chance of a continued assault on the home team disappeared seven minutes into the second half when goalkeeper Petr Cech was dismissed for a foul on Hugo Rodallega who converted the resultant penalty with Paul Scharner completing the scoring in stoppage-time.
There was better news for another PUMA v1.10 debutant, Blackburn’s El-Hadji Diouf. His team also went down to 10 men but were good enough to see off Aston Villa 2 – 1 with David Dunn scoring the winner a minute from time.
Outside of the EPL, fans hoping to see Samuel Eto’o in the new PUMA boot were disappointed as the Cameroon international stuck with his Team Gold / Black v1.08’s as Inter lost 1 – 0 to Sampdoria in Serie A.
Over in Germany, Mohamed Zidan and Nelson Valdez gave the boot a try out as Dortmund went down to FC Schalke, though by a crumb of comfort, the new v1.10 worked really well with the mainly yellow Dortmund kit.' And in the USA, fans at the New England Revolution v Seattle Sounders game saw the boot for the first time as worn by the Revolution’s Kenny Mansally.
And there was even an international bow for the v1.10 in the Fifa Under 20 World Cup matches played at the weekend with Young Gwon Kim' and Kim Bo Kyung of South Korea using the boot in their game against Cameroon.
they where worn last week in the A-legaue by song of newcastle

I think this piece was more of a focus on the UK debut plus others who wore the boot this weekend after its official reveal.
Guys I know this doesnt have much to do with the puma v10, but I have just come across OFFICIAL pictures of a lot of 2010 boots to be released, including new colorways of the vapors, new predators, nike lazer 3’s, adipure 3’s and lots lots more, post on here if you want the link.
where r adipure 3’s
Vedad Ibisevic of 1899 Hoffenheim wore them too when he scored a hattrick against Hertha BSC Berlin. 😉
Not a great lover of these but I will admit that they did look good with the B. Dortmund kit.
If you are wondering why no-one wore the red / black / white colourway it’s because PUMA hasn’t released it as yet.
i think it’s a bit ironic how these boots are inspired by cameroon star Eto’o but then they’re worn by two south korea players AGAINST cameroon lol or maybe it’s just me 😉
Ok some kid was weearing these aat my game this weekend it was weird as heck I have no clue how he had them
all good things
