Ok, so some people think they're a waste of time, others think they make them hit the ball 50 yards!!! Lets be REALISTIC, a bit of a difference, but not much, and you can't really comment till you've tried them can you?
I've had a pair of the 3rd generation 'accelerator' addidas boots now for, 2years and i have to say they are THE MOST comfortable boots i have had. Now admittedly i don't play for Liverpool / England, but i like to have a pair of comfy boots!
Admittedly they don't make me kick the ball 50yards, but there is a feeling of you're feet being 'tuned in' as the boot fits so well (with the new lacing system) it is almost moulded around your foot. As for curl and swerve, have you noticed how since the first generation of predator boots came out there has been less and less quantity and prominance of the 'fins?' The first pair of boots were so heavy and ugly, you might have got more swerve and power, but where was the comfort?
Addidas have now gone the right way, toning down the effectiveness and prominance of the fins (although they would never say this) for a more balanced, lightweight boot.
I am not saying this is THE best boot you can buy, but for sheer comfort they are one of the best
If you've got the money spare get them, if not get a pair of £9.99 Gola (cos they won't make you good if you're crap!)

Advantages: Improves first touch, accuracy of passing, and ability to curl ball. Disadvantages: the durability is poor under regular use, and will not last a full season
