That's ****. What's with the weird grey bits? Totally unnecessary and that's not even mentioning the blue up the top. Awful.
This is the issue with modern kit designs, as they fall into two categories
1. The Template, where dozens of teams around the world have palette-swapped kits of one another to the point teams may as well be named Sub-Zero, Scorpion, Reptile, Ermac, Smoke and Rain, with Nike being particularly guilty of this (especially when we have things such as our third kit from a couple of seasons ago being the same as Barca's training kit) although Adidas are just as guilty as a cursory glance at this season's MLS's kits reveals
