Good reasonably priced football?

Does anyone rate the cheaper Nike Mercurial one?

my total 90 yellow is a very good ball, has lasted a good while, and the colouring hasnt runa jot. usually it runs farily quickyl after the punishment we give em, but its still going strong.

I think I'm going to get a Nike Tiempo.

It looks like it's actually bonito, not bonita. I was thinking in feminin and not masculin.

I thought they used the aerow in the premiership?
Im pretty sure its the same ball - its not the 'normal' Total 90 ball
Nike outlet mall near where I live reduced from £60 hence why so cheap.

you mean freeport as in the little outlet village not far from blackpool, do they still have that little go cart track, lol

I'm guessing braintree freeport.

It's a factory outlet/lakeside type jobby.

It is the same ball in design, just not quality. You would need to play with them both to tell the difference tho. I played with one of the old mitre premier league balls once, the proper version, best ball i've ever used by a mile.

I'm sure you'll find the 'cheap' version more than adequate. Personally i'd never spend 60 notes on a footie and if i did i'd only use it on grass

EDIT

The aerow 90 is the official prem league ball, in which case 17 quid is a steal, you should have got a couple never mind just one!!
