Exclamation Erik's shoes

the only dark cloud on his reign so far. pretty concerning tbh. has he had a fall recently? are they prescription?

look like an arndale's yeezys/skechers/ bastard mashup. Real brundle-fly of a shoe. kind of a three quarter boot/trainer. can't get my head round it.

worse than that, he seems to be trying to style them out without socks... brrrr...

anyone got any pics? only seen vt footage when walking off at half time.

worrying times...

The whole trend for ‘yoof’ to not wear socks disturbs me. Their shoes must reek.

Just bog standard Adidas trainers. The man clearly prioritises comfort and function over fashion when at work, and I for one admire him for it.

All his lapels seem to have some mad red and blue little bits of ‘flair’ on them. I’m against it, whatever it is.

Tbf lots of the continental managers seem to dress like complete paraffins. Erik’s presentable enough.

Definitely a weird taste in shoes, like something you'd get bullied at school for wearing.

Then again he's from the Netherlands, this is a country where they still think clogs are a thing.

No socks. Needs to be put on an official warning...

It's the new club suit. Paul Smith. £#%&! knows why the badge isn't on it but hey ho.

Adidas triple black I think, wears a lot of Paul Smith also...

Effortless cool, just here to do a job...

He's probably wearing ankle socks as well.

Noticed this, however, he just needs to go down a size and all this would go away. Perfection is within his grasp yet he's risking it all with dodgy trainers and baggy shirts.

they look bit mad.

especially with his small head as well and his slightly oversized suit.

needs to go smart casual like lampard or arteta.

I think he's forgot his shoes in that pic and borrowed a pair.

Looks LIVID he does.

He can where whatever Velcro efforts he wants to.*

The thought of having an Arteta mini-Pep metrosexual type at the club gives me the shivers. No thanks.






*Until we stop winning, then he better sort them out - £#%&!ing embarrassment

Could picture him in his suit, barefoot in sandals tbh.

This. Horrific dressers. The Danes however..

Has a bit of a talking heads vibe to his suits which is actually a bit cool. Silv living in 2015 judging by his comments…

No socks is an anathema though and I will not tolerate it. Feel it might deserve an open letter type intervention on behalf of the fans?
