Our five winning adizero Twitter Challenge questions for Jermain Defoe have been selected - we'll be in touch about your prizes! Join us Monday on the SoccerBible's Twitter page for the live Speed Challenge with Jermain!

Also, a big congratulations to the lucky first 10 fans at the adidas store today! The 10 fans quoted the password ‘All Light All Fast’ to win a pair of signed adizero boots and will get to meet Jermain in person on Monday!

*UPDATE 08/01/11*

Put Jermain Defoe to the speed test - submit your questions and win the latest adizero boots! Jermain Defoe has consistently impressed with his sharp shooting and impressive change of pace. We are giving you the opportunity to put him to the test with the Speed Week Twitter Challenge from adidas. All you have to do is submit your questions relating to his football career. The only stipulation is that they need to have a true or false answer.

Defoe will answer five questions from SoccerBible readers in London on Monday and if your question is selected for this fastest finger first challenge against some of the world’s fastest athletes including Lionel Messi, you will win a pair of the latest adizero boots! Leave your questions as a comment or email them to our u2us@soccerbible.com inbox for a chance to win and we’ll select the five best!

*UPDATE 07/01/11*

Just had a call from the adizero thief about Jermain Defoe’s boots and they’re right under our nose! Check out the map below to see where they are. She said that the first 10 people there from 12pm on Sunday will win a signed pair of adiZeros and get to meet Jermain and Jess. One last thing, there is password that you need to say to get the boots - “All Light All Fast”. Good Luck!



*UPDATE 07/01/11*

Do you want to find Jermain Defoe’s boots and win a signed pair? His missing adizeros are somewhere in the WC2 postcode along with Jessica Ennis’s running shoes. Stay tuned to the SoccerBible for more information for the chance to hand them back in person.

*UPDATE 06/01/11*

We've been sent an image of what Defoe's stolen adizero boots look like. We'll have some more information to come on where the boots are and how you can win the opportunity to hand them back to him in person. What we can reveal is that the boots will be in London this weekend and the first couple of people to find them will get to meet Defoe. Stay tuned to the SoccerBible for further clues to where they will be. There will also be more info on both www.facebook.com/soccerbible and www.facebook.com/adidasfootball.



Seven athletes, including Jermain Defoe, have had their boots and shoes stolen from adidas HQ! The thief has posted a video as a challenge to adidas and the public to find the boots. Check out the video and stay tuned to the SoccerBible for more updates on how you can find the boots and win the chance to hand them back in person!

very stupid vid.. but... wtf with Nani boots???

January 5, 2011 7:18 PM
 

Dessept said:

Okay? So what's the point of this video? Are we supposed to be looking for the boots and when we find them, we return them to the owner? Why can't Adidas search for them theirselves? It's not our fault that their security is bad.

Why so serious?

January 5, 2011 7:27 PM
 

Aldiin said:

HAHAHAH, if i would find them I would take them for me not give them back :S ?

January 5, 2011 9:41 PM
 

Dessept said:

@ D keeper, I don't think it's real at all and I also think it's a very weird promotion. And my first comment wasn't as serious as you may think ;)

philarthur said:

So much potential for an awesome video, but none of it has been exploited. Videos like this remind me that adidas often make better boots than Nike, but have no idea how to market them.

bradford said:

jermain defoe is just a small paul ince. if i find his boots i won't know whether to choose between keeping his boots or giving them back in person and popping him in the face.

January 6, 2011 1:27 AM
 

bradford said:

btw his boots are probably on the feet of some teenage t.w.a.t with too much gel in his hair.

hmm too bad messi isnt going to wear the orange primes...

January 6, 2011 2:25 AM

Hmmm if pros get their boots stolen, like messi, you'd think they could get another pair....

channo said:

those are ADS you retards -___-;

of course pros could get another boot if theirs got stolen, but then again: THIS ARE ADS.

why do we have to look for stolen boots?? why does the goddamn thief run so slow?? why does the security sucks??

are you the same people that asked "why ronaldinho change into beckham, is he a form-changing mutant??" in pepsi ads, and "how come nobody stop the brazilians from playing football at a goddamn airport??" in nike ads??

it's ADS for God's sake. it doesn't have to be drop dead realistic -and yeah, sometimes it kinda suck like this one.

pretty dumb. leave it to Adidas to come up with a lame video like that.

Hahaha , that's actually really funny video in my opinion. :)

Starklint said:

Why can't adidas make the adizero boot-design like the red ones.. Reminds me of the old Puma v.1 06 in red colorway! IMO the adizero 1 boot is much appealing than the new one! A cleaner design! For me its not all about futuristic og complex design, but the exact opposite.

Bluebeam said:

And I thought "Write the Future" was the most laughable ad after the Finals...

bradford said:

maybe ask him - true or false? tottenham teammate aaron lennons racing stripes make him go faster???

January 9, 2011 1:10 PM
 

bradford said:

i've got a harder one ( i think i sent this in an email without my address -  oops!)

true or false?  your cousin anthony edgar scored the winner in a 2-1 win at peterborough against jermain's former team west ham in front of famous boxer mike tyson.

it's false by the way - he scored for west ham!

i wonder how well he knows his family

January 9, 2011 1:22 PM
 

millwall f.c said:

True or false, for the west ham under 19 team that won the premier academy league title in the 1999-2000 season, in the play-off final against arsenal you did not score?

January 9, 2011 2:28 PM
 

millwall f.c said:

answer is false he scored twice

True or false, you still feel nervous or anxious before a match starts?

ps, no offence intended, just constructive for the rest of us ;)

Harlandos said:

Hey guys, i was lucky enough to be within the 10 in the London comp! Great stuff - one pair of adizero primes on the way and a training session with Defoe and Jess Ennis...Worth the major wait this morning but cannot wait to try out these boots!

January 9, 2011 7:03 PM
 

kkiks said:

Mr Defoe , You have played in two clubs now with Peter Crouch . Tell me , if playing with him is better , than playing with anybody else in your career?

January 9, 2011 9:00 PM

January 9, 2011 9:57 PM
 

bradford said:

thanks harlandos, for telling us how you won when we didn't.

it makes not winning that much better.

January 10, 2011 2:33 AM
 

bradford said:

still though, congratulations. i'm just jealous. what was your question?

January 10, 2011 6:45 AM
 

Dessept said:

@bradford I think Harlandos was one of the first 10 to "find" the boot in London. Congratz to him :)

January 10, 2011 12:03 PM
 

bradford said:

you are correct.

i wish i lived in the uk

KosherSepp said:

1. Isnt in the Adi-HQ! Because the Adidas HQ is a Ex-Army Barrack.

2. Adidas is the most important supporter of corruption and structures of cheating in Football - FIFA and Blatter!

January 10, 2011 11:12 PM
 

bradford said:

one of the questions was 'do you feel faster in the adizero'!

that bs like he's gonna say no. kissing adidas' ***.

wish i'd thought of it :)
