    The blue stripe does f it up, but not entirely. It would be better if it were more like the blue on the neck. But even better than that would be no blue whatsoever. The kit makers and their need to change kits every year... Why can't Arsenal stick with their longstanding tradition: the classic, elegant red with white sleeves at home, and some kind of grisly horror show away?

    Man U really must be having financial problems. The only possible explanation for those shirts is that they stole the tablecloths from a cheap Italian restaurant, and then leeched the red into the white by washing them.

    I'm not a big fan of the kit. After so many years, changing it every year, so fans will buy it, is becoming a challenge.

    Is nobody going to make the joke about you being so desperate to keep van Persie that you've put his national team's flag on the arms of your kit?
    No? I won't either, then... <whistle>

    Don't mind it. I personally love that they bring out new shirts every year. It means I pick up the old ones for about £10 at JJB or whatever when the season's up.

    The long sleeve vsn does indeed look better.

    Well I'm not a big fan but it's been worse.

    Think we shoulda kept the oak leaves around the emblem.

    Nice video to promote it. Must be altered though, never seen Theo that accurate.

    As has been said, it's much closer to the dutch flag. Perhaps an attempt to convince RVP to sign a new contract, at least it's not Song...

    I dont see how it's the French flag.

    what we have on the kit is actually this..

    Which is the NETHERLANDS flag.

    Red, White and Blue is also the Colours of the Union Jack, Star spangled banner, Croatian flag, Serbian, Chilli, Latvia, Czech republic...

    So true. I'll never buy this year's shirt. Who could possibly care less whether they're wearing this year's shirt, or last year's minor variation on the theme for 1/8th the price.

    Maybe he should spend more time trying to do that with a football and not on the tennis-table

    Ugly kit but I am more concerned with how well we play next season to be honest.

    I don't think we should have any Blue on our home kit to be honest.
