Yes, pretty much. The blue is very slightly different, but close.

At the end of the day, Gordon and Barnes are going to get plenty of game time next year, whether we're in Champions League or Europa. There's no need at all to sell either.

Closest leak/mockup of the 3rd kit I've seen so far is this. Not bang on, but close. We also get a long sleeve version of that one this year, which looks cool.

I'm sure this is a whoosh, but just in case it isn't, this kit is absolutely 100% the kit (or a really really close fake). I have photos of the official authentic kit on my phone (not the standard one, granted), but all the features align correctly. The trefoil is a feature of the 3rd kit this year.

I've been told, categorically, that Barnes is NOT FOR SALE and DOESN'T want to leave. They're trying to build a squad here. Obviously that could change, so don't shoot the messenger, but that's how it stands today.

May have already been mentioned but the home kit is launching 29th or 30th May.

no. 3 more points does it (getting us to 69 points), because only Chelsea and Villa can reach 69, and Villas goal difference is woeful.

I don’t have too much of an issue with a slight change. I’d prefer not too, but if it’s just a slight freshen up, then I don’t really care too much.

Not close at all.

This is pretty close but from memory there are more stripes.

Like a McDonalds uniform

I don’t know, sorry.

Yes the stripes ignore the collar. And the badge looks clean to mean. Not sure what you mean on that one.

I know my opinion means largely nothing to anyone, but I’m looking at a picture right now of the authentic one and I think it looks mint 🤷‍♂️

Well I did say it’d be controversial 😁

I haven’t seen the standard version (only seen the authentic), but yeah, I reckon that’s legit. For what it’s worth, the authentic version is a chunk nicer to my eyes. The collar is different… the black ring at the bottom isn’t there… and the bubble texture gives it a more premium look. And it looks mint (to me) on the players.

Aye, you’re pretty much there 👍🏻

It’s incredibly subtle, and really lovely in person.

Close. The black stripe on the shoulder should extend down the arm. And the side panels have a mixture of black and white stripes on them that follow the body contour. And make the bubbles less obvious. They’re extremely subtle. Then it’s pretty much there.

Yep, that’s the bubble pattern I’m referring to. That’s on our home shirt (at least definitely on the authentic version). I guess there’s a small chance there’s a different pattern on the standard shirt.

I have photos, aye, but I can’t post them for obvious reasons.

Yeah, I’ve already commented on that one a few pages back. It’s closer, but that pattern on the stripes isn’t right, and the collar / shoulders are different (see post above).

There should be 3 black stripes on the front (the centre one is black), and 4 white stripes (basically invert them, and make them slightly wider). The circular pattern style thing is kinda along the right lines, but much more subtle in person. Collar and shoulders completely wrong…. - collar should be black with blue trim inside it. - the Adidas stripes on the shoulders are white on a black thicker stripe, with the rest of the shoulder area white.

There’s no tartan on our home shirt. There is, however, a subtle circular pattern in the stripes that starts quite tight at the bottom of the shirt and gets wider further up. Almost like subtle bubbles.

The way they’re going on, it would be absolutely class if Spurs somehow snook a 1-0.
