What do u think of the new England shirts?

Dawn

New England shirts are decent. I won't be getting it though, will be getting Spain one with Torres 9 on back :D

I'm happy that no Liverpool players have been injured yet.....

I really don't like the collar on the new England shirt. It makes them look like they're taking part in a PE lesson at school. I haven't bought an England shirt since Euro 2004 and definitely won't be buying the new one.

It's great though, up here in Scotland they sell all the England official shirts for about £13 (probably because not many people up here buy em!) so if I did want to get one at a later date, it's cheap as chips! :D

Last England shirt I got was before the World Cup I think. Can't remember. I plan on buying the Spain kits now.

I wasnt keen on the collar either, very English school boy look, but I think that was what they are aiming for... clean up the bad boy lager lout rep..... I dont think the players like it as most of them had turned the collar up...

Think their names on the back were a bit thin in colour and would look better bold..

Yeah, that's the impression I got too. It's probably an attempt to make it look less like a replica football shirt so it can be seen as a more casual tee-shirt for everyday wear - more of a smarter polo shirt style.

The lettering could have been a bit better too as you said. Maybe use navy blue instead of red and it would have been bolder and retained the "white and blue" that are the usual staple colours of the England home strip. I think the shirt would look much better if it was paired with traditional navy shorts - the white ones just don't work as well IMO.

Very true, I thought tonight they looked like they were school boys in all white kit.

At least they got the job done this evening... could have played better though.
