I am considering buying Nike Total 90 shin pads as they seem to have a pretty good ankle support system...(it sits really tightly around your ankle)...they look cool too lol.
Also, Henry and a few other EPL players wear them so they must be alright lol. One thing I noticed is that they don't have a strap to wrap around your leg. I think they left it out because they found is pointless if you're wearing long enough socks lol. But I think it may slip around slightly during play. also the ankle support is detachable -> Velcro backing.

Any of the total 90 guards that i've been looking at have the wrap around front fastener (velcro) on the top, I am looking for ones without, as I hate the strap.

there is no strap because its a slip in guard- you need ankle tape, like c. ronaldo wears.
