It ‘sounds’ like they have a good understanding of what we will accept and/or hate. So it will be a challenge for the designers to achieve the objective without making it too far removed for people to like.

Well you’ve answered your own question there. Of course you can literally render any image digitally, the question is does it look good and work well.

Not sure if anyone’s mentioned that they’ve already said minimal changes is the preferred direction. So I’d expect simplification of some of the details, redraw things more clearly, make it it usable in different scenarios etc. Scary but also a potentially exciting refresh if they can pull it off.

Fernandez making runs into the box from deep seems to have been Chelsea's secret weapon lately. That could work well against us unless we're really switched on to it.

Yeah, no point in an injection unless he's planning to play soon.

If Joelinton plays we make CL no bother. Always thought it was weird that he went back to Brazil, maybe it was just to rest.

Downie is insufferable but that looks good.

Villa PSR situation is an opportunity for us to sell Barnes to them?

A weirdo at least.

Not useless at all

Here we go

With the daylight rule, could you just extend your arm backwards to ensure there’s no gap, while staying goal side of the defender? Big advantage for lanky bastards like myself. Could get a couple of feet ahead.

I would also like that but it wouldn’t stop the media linking Isak away.

Will? Maybe Can? Obviously

If we had a black back I reckon we would all just say the shirt looks too black and not black and white enough. I also prefer it though.

Not sure Arsenal are really capable of being desperate for anything. Hopefully they'll be on the beach.

Not sure about a defeat but a draw here, draw Arsenal and beat Everton could be enough. Of course we don’t want to have to endure that.

So would adidas I imagine.

The jagged edge stripes look very weird at first viewing, apart from that it’s fairly normal. Quite like an element of blue. Of course I don’t want stick on badge etc but it seems that’s what fans get. Won’t buy it but hopefully it looks OK on the players.

Oh em gee.

They'd be knocking around the relegation battle without him. Maybe.

I wouldn't have GK that high up, although it's possible the Trafford deal is basically done. It would be great but I would keep Pope another year if it meant we could get those other targets done.

It obviously isn't

I don't want to go through this route, but draw Chelsea, draw Arsenal and beat Everton is probably OK.

I don't think the club will really be thinking about solving depth by constantly moving people around into different positions. Of course an option if we have to. I think the same applies if we sign Mbuemo. He can cover at striker but I can't see it being a major part of our plan.
