New kit

A few months ago I made an article regarding the following leak from Nike HQ

http://www.metro.co.uk/sport/oddballs/890535-arsenal-and-manchester-united-new-kit-picture-leak-causes-twitter-stir

While they clearly need to swap the United and Arsenal socks.

Today Arsenal released their new kit which matches exactly the leaked photo. Which means our tartan kit must be legit.

I don't like our current kit, it's not red enough. Looks almost orange at times.

The potential new kit doesn't look great, but I don't mind it. Don't think the socks should be red though.

Looking at all three kits in the first link, the socks are all completely wrong!

Just seen this on facebook.

'Man City bought the title? Cost of United team yesterday: 169 million. Cost of City team yesterday: 161 million'

_____________________________________

I was bored so I had a look into it. Transfer fees are mostly from Wiki, BBC and Skysports. Just goes to show how accurate information on Facebook usually is.

De Gea - 16.5m
Jones - 16m
Vidic - 7m
Ferdinand - 30m
Evra - 5.5m
Nani - 20m
Park - 4m
Giggs - N/A
Scholes - N/A
Carrick - 18m
Rooney - 25m

Total : 142m

Hart - 1.5m
Zabaleta - 6.5m
Kompany - 6m
Lescott - 22m
Clichy - 7m
Barry - 12m
Toure - 24m
Silva - 24m
Nasri - 25m
Tevez - 25m according to Sky but rumoured to be much greater
Aguero - 38m

Total : 191m

P.S. Sorry for going off topic!

The United kit is pretty awful though.

Vidic? Um, he didn't play??

Nani - 20m

He cost 14mill

Like I said, I went on the figures quoted on Wikipedia and most of them are based on speculations. I find the 20m transfer fee quoted for Nani a bit exaggerated too.

It was easier to get the transfer fees for City though as they were mostly up on BBC.

It was £20m for Anderson and £14m for Nani.
