    I actually think pink suits this team perfectly...

    Yay, sexism.

    I wouldn't be surprised if this is actually why this kit has come about. Much like the furore when Utd released a women's version of the home top, more 'shapely' with a lower cut, part of the Sepp Blatter range. Real dumb shit.

    i don't see what the big deal is. if the pink shirt is real then whatever. not like pink shirts are that uncommon.

    Real Madrid, Juventus, Arsenal, Barça immediately come to mind as having a pink shirt even if only a pre match top or goalie kit.

    all of the kits shown are uninspiring but i've seen much worse. thus far only the blue one would even be considered for purchase

    The pink kit works, but the home kit is a desecration. We expect a tweak to the red, white and black every season but what's been presented goes well beyond pushing the envelope.

    They put the old team crest of that time to make the jersey more authentic.

    adidas.com has it last i check... pricey but looks better than any kit offering and come think of it, the price is not much different from a kit with printing.

    Oh deary me. Have you never watch a video of the 1968 final?

    It is the Manchester coat of arms. They used to wear it back in the day.

    Having bought Di Maria and Mikhi shirts and having been about to buy a Pogs short before the fallout, in all honesty, of our headline players whose shirt is safe and who will be most likely to perform to a level that means you would want to wear their shirt?

    :)

    In the past have usually had a choice between a number of quality 'marquee' players, is not an exciting / stable squad at the mo.

    Assuming new signings excluded, Lukaku is probably best bet at the moment being highest on the safe/quality graph, but I don't buy odd number shirts (apart from 7) because I am a number weirdo.

    Sanchez also, but hasn't really performed for us so far and Jose use of him @ LWF and the troubles that caused make this unappealing shirt buy for me.

    Our other main players all have issues from a shirt purchasing perspective;

    Pogba/Martial (Jose issues/gametime/may go)
    Rashford/Lingard/McT (gametime/quality but safe)
    Mata/Herrera (gametime/end-of-contracts)
    Matic/Valencia/Young (too workmanlike to wear their shirts)
    CBs (inconsistent/gametime/wouldnt buy a defender shirt unless they were boss)
    DDG (keeper - so diff shirt / RM interest)
    Darmian/Shaw/Blind (quality/may go)

    Stupid campaign.

    They want to honor the railway men of NH, but are afraid to go green and gold?


    The kit is not good looking. Its not wretched, but I cant find a less attractive home kit. I usually love when they do black shorts on the home kit, but this is not a good look imo. So in the games where we have to wear white shorts because of a clash, we will look even dumber.

    Can we go back to Nike please?

    The whole fade to black at the bottom makes it look like the shirt is cutoff like mid stomach. It looks like they're wearing children's jerseys.

    How does Man Utd get these lame designs, is this club not big enough to demand quality work? Or is it just this is the least of their worries
    ?

    lol look at the cup fonts we have had over the years. whoever has final say clearly doesn't give a toss.

    and on the rare occasions we get a nice kit like the white away with the onyx hexagons we dump it after one season
