Away = Nice. Home = Horseshit.

We're going to look ridiculous wearing the homes in Champions League.

Yank, I know you're a bit of a......negative nelly but come on dude, you've not even seen the shorts for the home kit yet so how can you possibly say we'll look ridiculous until then.

I feel pretty confident that the design team at Nike will be well aware of the potential pitfalls of the fade from the bottom of the shirt and how that could look if we have solid Navy shorts.

I reckon there's a good chance that the fade is replicated from the bottom of the shorts which would negate the whole Simon Cowell waist because there would be white in between, if that makes sense.

A replicated fade on the shorts would look even worse than in my scariest nightmares.

Yeah it could be bad but I was just trying to think of something that would negate the "high waist" look that we might get from solid navy shorts.

I'm not overly worried about it myself. I think the fact that the navy fades gradually will mean that it doesn't look like a high waist either way and people that are worried about it will be pleasantly surprised come official release.

Can't believe how much I love the fact we inverted the blues on the socks.

In my head, predominantly navy with aqua as a secondary colour would've been playing it safe, but this was the bold choice and I reckon it looks great.

Also makes me think the home kit has navy socks.

Gotty to say those are looking mightily like embroidered/sewn on badges and not printed.

Was hoping the socks had the same design as the shorts, so it was on the outside all the way down.

Everyone pre kit release: This is the worst thing I've laid my eyes upon

Everyone during season: Best. Kit. Ever

How we view the kit as the season progresses usually directly links to successes on the pitch. My favourite kits are all 94/95! Not sure if their the best kits but love the memories.

Probably 95% of shirt sales that season, white, blue, yellow, would have had that on the back.

I don't remember a team having a shirt with a gradient design like ours before but it's strange that Man United have a similar design this season.

I honestly think if the design of the home kit was identical to the away, it could have perfectly toed the line of being modern/different whilst remaining relatively basic/clean. Think it's a missed opportunity, personally, but don't want to add to the negativity, especially as the entire kit's not yet been revealed to the public.

Even more so when theirs is Addidas and ours is Nike.

Unbelievable missed opportunity.
First season in our new stadium and they release this utter vomit design?
They could have done so much but they'd done so little.
The co-ordinates in the collar are pointless, won't be seen and are, IMO, a last minute addition to try to say it's unique.

It should have had something stadium related in the design. Perhaps the soon to be iconic cladding as a feint pattern in the background.
Instead it's not only generic, it's hideous and being released by ameteurs it seems.

In terms of the home kit surely we have to wear navy shorts in Europe? Can't imagine us wearing white shorts with the blue fade on the shirt, would be horrific.

Trouble is we do traditionally wear all white in Europe. This tends to be with the home shirt. See your avatar....
