The Old Pro wears black
Always has and always will
His boots look older than him
He’s a leader, with heart instilled

The Maestro wears white
All talent and class
He lets others do the work
Then converts that killer pass

The Hot Potato wears red
He drives his manager up the wall
Impetuous, rash, he just dives in
Taking the man, the boos, then the ball

The Veteran decks his feet in blue
To indicate an aura of total calm
He’s the tortoise, not the hare
A thinker, with ‘Captain’ on his arm

Green boots adorn the Enigma
Inconsistency his middle name
Sometimes he plays like Pele
Sometimes like Doris Day

The Entertainer plays in yellow boots
To bring energy to the team
His hair is bleached the same colour
He needs time to pose and preen

Brown boots show that you’re organised
A solid defender on whom to rely
No frills or skills or trickery
He eats Desparate Dan cow pies

The golden boy wears gold boots
He has supreme talent and genius flair
He’ll be deadly from your set pieces
And encourage the media glare

Wearing silver is the sprinter
With ninety minutes of blistering pace
He can’t tackle or pass the ball
But like a gazelle, he oozes grace

Orange marks out the eccentric
Bounce like spacehoppers in jaffa boots
He can peel away from defenders
With the sharpness of citrus fruits
