Wear gloves with short sleeved shirts.

Totally pointless in my opinion.

I have been wondering why ALB bothers to wear gloves!

because the ball might be cold, picking it up out of the net as often as he does, might give him frost bite

Today's footballers are soft. They even wear shirts under their football shirts. They'll be wearing hairnets next.

To keep their hands warm?

And the rest of you, quit turning every thread into an anti ALB rant or there will be and getting dished out.

I would ban players from wearing gloves full stop the soft overpaid pansies, apart from goalkeepers that is

Isnt it something like if you get chilled hands the rest of your body feels a hell of a lot colder??
in fact i know this because when i had my bike id by fairly toastie until my hands got cold then id just shivver all the way to my destination! brrrr
