Just to put it in perspective, from left to right:

€12million - €30million - €64.5million - €34.5million - €54.5million - €17million
Chelsea are getting that much for the tires deal? Wow. For only €10m less they don't have to have a big gold cross on their shirt, and they're a smaller club than us anyway so €10m less sounds about right regardless of what the sponsor looks like.

I actually like the Chevy logo on the home shirt but look out of place on that third one.

So are the stripes orange and the crest/Adidas logo/shirt cuff red? Can't really tell. Can anyone confirm/refute this? And is the white shading in the chest area that noticeable? Pretty terrible lighting to see the nuances.
It's black, orange and white. No red anywhere on the kit.

Yeah I was surprised they were getting that much as well!

On the United deal, there are some reports that say it's worth £53million which would actually be €73million. I'm not sure which figures are correct.

That third kit is an abomination indeed.

TBF, I think Chelsea deal covers all their kits. Chevrolet deal doesn't cover training kits, that's given to AON for a load of money.

Chelsea are still too realiant on their owner imo. New kit deal aside if Roman left tomorrow where would that leave them?

Were they asked to do their best Blue Steel impression or something? Those look awful. From the shoulders up, they'd easily pass as mughsots

And that's the conservative estimate. A number of good media sources have it as €73million/yr. See the bottom of this article.

Love that kit, especially the shorts. Third kits are meant to be a bit adventurous.

Look up about 5 or 6 posts!

In the United Direct email, the image appears to show the accents in red (on the players) but then shows immediately below it, the actual kit in all its orange glory.

What could have been!

I don't mind the top, nor the pattern on the shorts. What bugs me most is the different shades of black used for the top and shorts.

I couldn't help but notice that. What is that all about the shorts look Navy? Looks a kit that has been thrown together as none of it seems to match.

According to the Man Utd website this is going to be our European away kit, rather than the white one.

It's a nice kit but not convinced by the shorts at all. Doesn't fit with the top which is excellent plus the fading and designs is a little too complicated for me.

Not a huge fan of the shorts but other than that it looks good. Also I don't think many of the players will have a career doing photo shoots once their footballing days are over :lol:

in your closet, in your head
The 3rd kit might look ok from very far away so you don't see the pattern on the top and if you cropped the shorts and socks out of the picture. The Chevrolet logo doesn't look bad but the badge certainly does.
The shorts are absolutely hideous.

Does anyone know where I can get the third kit with CL font for name/numbers and CL patches? I've checked the UnitedDirect website and they only have PL style kits.

Really like that black t-shirt but those shorts and socks are Liverpool Warrior bad..
