Arsenal fans will hope that these new Nike Hyper Venom boots inspire their star midfielder to help the Gunners earn three points at White Hart Lane on Sunday.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has emerged as a crucial player in Arsenal’s second half of the season, overcoming his own cruciate knee ligament blow to help out with an injury crisis at Emirates Stadium.
It has required him to be utilised in a number of roles.
When Theo Walcott was ruled out for the rest of the season and World Cup this summer with a similar knee complaint, it was thought that Oxlade-Chamberlain would largely be deployed on the right wing for the remainder of the season, but additional spells on the sidelines for Jack Wilshere, Aaron Ramsey and Mesut Ozil have resulted in the 20 year-old mostly playing central midfield.
Like Jack Wilshere, Oxlade-Chamberlain’s strength lies in bursting past players with pace and balance and playing in team-mates in advanced positions, and his dynamism will be vital in this Sunday’s north London derby against Tottenham Hotspur.
The former Southampton star plans to debut new Nike Hyper Venom boots for the occasion, which can be seen below.
