Got to hold their moobs up whilst they work off their podge. 

 

Nipple chaffing is no laughing matter. 

 

Wouldn't they need a bigger cup size?

Depends how many larger shandies they've had I suppose.

Conte better be careful, Costa has a bib

RLC, Oscar, Matic, Costa, Willian and Azpi feature in the photos. Probably all staying....

.

Well that doesn't mean much anymore. I remember some players modeling kit in the summer and then some of them were sold shortly after that.

Could the third kit be any more boring?

The away kit is almost identical to the kits Wales wore at Euro 2016. I thought they were among the better Euro kits (there were some truly horrible ones!)

 

Third kit officially announced. 

 

Boring. 

 

Also, United revealed their third kit today too... Look familiar? 

 

 

Change black to blue and remove the shoulder detailing and it's exactly the same as our one. 

Also. 

 

Why do Adidas insist on making our player strike the most ridiculous poses for these shirt reveal photos. 

 

They look like a bunch of twats every single time, I have no idea why the persist with making them look so awkward.

I liked that campaign of a few years ago when the players were covered in blue paint. The "tough guy" look for this year's away kit however is ridiculous.

Yeah the "It's blue, what else matters" thing was good. 

 

Although I don't really understand why there needs to be so much fan fair about a kit reveal. 

 

I remember before on the last day of the season they'd just put a picture in the programme of a player wearing the new kit, hands behind their back. 

 

And that was it.

Ahhh the good old days.... Something has changed, it may be about money spinning now, but I'm just guessing here :-)

Not too mention those odd little black bras some are wearing are really silly:

I think those are high tech recording devices that continously measure heart rate, breathing rate, etc. The training pictures from all the clubs seem to have them.

If they're measuring heart rate, shouldn't the bras be on the skin instead of over a shirt?

A stethoscope lets you listen to heartbeats over clothing, so I assume a device like this would too.

Here is an article on them that specifically mentions Chelsea. Apparently they have a GPS to map and measure players' movements, can calculate things like acceleration, and measure heart rate, among other features.

I assume they wear them over the shirt because it would irritate the skin, though the rugby player pictured in the article is wearing it on bare skin. Maybe the fact that you can see it on some players and not on others means that some players are wearing them underneath?

Odd that in the picture with the article that man is wearing a "bro" :-) as well as the sort of heart monitor I wear when working out. I would expect a bro to measure heart rate, so making a seperate monitor unnecessary.

Still, it's probably the answer to our questions. And it still looks silly, if I may say so.
