  • You'd think they could him a clean ball for the publicity picture!
  • To be fair, it is not a Thomas Cook logo on the right shoulder, it is a Le Coq Sportif logo. And since that is the only place it appears on the shirt, it makes it seem somewhat understated (since most clubs have the manufacturers logo on the chest). All in all, I think it is an absolutely striking kit.
  • In addition to what William says, Chelsea's European strip - the black one - also has pinstripes, though that's not their EPL strip of course.
  • Liverpool's home kit has subtle pinstripes (that can only be really seen when the kit is inspected up close).
  • I kinda like it. Baby Blue is a difficult color to work with. But, it is relatively simple and a supporter could actually wear it in public without looking like a jackass.
  • Much like the new US kit, it has pinstrips. I like the return to a pure sky blue color rather than the variation on the Reebok kits the past few seasons.
  • So that's why they sacked him.
  • i think it is a good looking kit. as william pointed out, its the LCS logo on the shoulder. There has been a lot of label snobbery towards LCS on other forums, but I dont see what the problem is. At least it is off the front of the shirt. Too often the logo encroaches, like the adidas kits which have the adidas logo in prime position to be seen when the shirts are worn with an opem jacket.


    the Thomas cook logo is not too bad as it cant be too big, as the FA have logo size guidelines.



    pin stripes are good. they make the kit dynamic without adding daft detailing, such as umbros patterned underarms on the new england/everton/everyone else shirts. as anyone who has a good suit knows, pinstripes make you look the man.



    What I want to know is, what colour numbers will they use? black or white?
  • i heard it was going to be made by addidas?
