To be fair, it looks pretty cool. I work in the design world, and Im really glad that football as an industry has integrated design into the game. It makes it more visually appealing which is no bad thing.

I love the Champions League design with the stars making the ball shape, so this is my favourite.

Fuck that ball is incredibly ugly. It looks like a webpage from 2000 or something.

Undoubtably the best I've played with, look superb when you curl them.

Make up your minds!

It was mainly criticised for being too light, but for me it was perfect.

It definitely wasn't too light, I remember hurting my foot on a few occasions! Though I was 12 at the time.

I want to play with one now! Still love the current one, but I'm intrigued by the new one.

Balls are blamed for too much as someone said, but play with 5 different balls and the contrast can be massive in the way they play.

Had to play with these at my Primary school because one of the teachers got knocked out by a normal one Was so easy because you could just squash it under your foot and no one had a chance of getting it out. And when it rained, soak it in a puddle then belt it at someone's face.

One of the most cringeworthy things I've ever read on these forums.

I'm a stickler for the standard of keeping as well, but the erratic trajectories of today's balls means that long-range shooting is a changed game. The newer balls are more responsive which is an advantage, but I prefer the Mitre Multiplex / Ultimax from the 1990s which always had a very true flight.
