He said: "I think I was around 14 or 15 and we were supported by Macron at Aston Villa and the socks used to shrivel in the washing machine.
"In preparing I was unable to get them over my calves in light of the fact that the socks were so little.
"So I began wearing them below my calves in preparing - and that season I wound up playing all around well.
"So then I began wearing my socks below my calves in games. It was simply something that stuck on the grounds that I'd had such a decent season."
