One thing though - with the golden puma logo and the year at the back, does it mean this year's letters / numbers are gold too?

Puma kits are just awful. Bring back Adidas or just switch over to Nike please.

The Fifa images look way better while the GK kit is just based on Spurs template.

Guess it's time for a thread title change then.

Aye. If you include the whole season, it has to be the one who left. Issues aside, no one can predict such a phenomenal improvement in just a summer. Current players-wise it's probably Simpson although he still has much to improve. We already know Barton could do so it is more of him fulfilling his past talent more than anything.

The Champs League final is at Wembley.

Their current kit looks great too. Damn, I miss adidas.

Last heard they are going to have the superman logo right across the chest.

I guess the lighting in Ethi's link doesn't do it justice. The shade of red is off and should be darker.

Big pics so just going to give the direct link. http://www.footballshirtculture.com/11/12-kits/ac-milan-2011-12-adidas-home-kit.html Looks really nice. Like it.

15 at one stage.

Beardsley > Cole

Ben Arfa Does he take a mean free kick or corner though? I have only seen him in the limited appearances for us and didn't follow him playing in France. Fair play if he does.

Another dead ball specialist please. Barton on his off day is a pain to watch, and no other regular first teamer can take the set pieces.

Worrying that Barton's delivery has dipped alarmingly for some time and that no one else in the team can take those set pieces. Hopefully we'll get another set piece specialist to increase our options. Don't even bring Ryan Taylor into the picture please.

You just wonder if Carroll is going to celebrate when he inevitably scores against us.

Get the mods to change it for you then. How does Owenisac*** sound?

Mowen * M.Owen * Michael Owen?

Cos Man City will never sell to their rivals?

Any idea how much is our Puma deal by comparison?

Had a couple of personal experience that. Felt like an absolute criminal in one case. Some helpful chaps made up for it though. Having said that, racial discrimination of some kind exists everywhere, even living in a so-called peaceful multiracial country.

10m after 30 league appearances. We'll stop playing him after 29 games.

Now that Man U has Hernandez doing well in a similar role to Owen, and a number of young strikers coming up, I can't see his contract being renewed. Interesting to see if he gets a chance with another club in the summer. More brochure printing coming up? Quick, someone tweet him 'U staying at Man U next season?'.
