WhyWilliam Saliba wore Adidas shorts with two stripes against Tottenham

An interesting fact is that William Saliba, the starting central defender for Arsenal, sported a faulty Adidas jersey in today’s North London Derby against Tottenham.It seemed like the Frenchmanwas missing a stripe on the right side of his shorts. The shorts were really just two-stripedinstead of three.

A little-known fact is thatheat press is used to apply the stripes on the official Arsenal 2022-23 home jersey. The Three Stripes havenever fallen off previously, thus it’s more possible that the manufacturing team just forgot to add one stripe, as perFooty Headlines. Meanwhile, the Three Stripes on the jerseywere positioned correctly.

Everything about this brings memories backof Johan Cruyff, the renowned Dutch legend, and his two-striped Adidas jersey from the 1974 World Cup.Of course, William Saliba wasn’t planning on sporting a monochromatic look with just two stripes.

While Cruyff was leading the Dutch national team, Adidas weretheir sponsor. This means that the three iconic stripes were included with the Dutch lion insignia on the original orange jersey. In contrast, the former forwardhimself was backed by Puma.

After much deliberation, Johan had a custom shirt manufactured just for him. While everyone else was wearing the standard Adidas jerseys and shorts, he stepped onto the field wearing something quite different: a jersey with just two stripes.
