New Liverpool kit revealed - reds turn blue

Liverpool have ditched their famous red in favour of 'cyan blue'.

While it is not quite as unnerving as Everton's pink kit, the news will still come as a blow as 'The mighty reds' are now 'The mighty blues'.

The official website sells it as a 'nostalgic nod' to 'Liverpool's first ever home kit back in 1892'.

But I believe it is a final blow by Adidas after the club are to ditch them next year in favour of Boston-based Warrior Sports.

It is a shame how some of the club and the brand's top minds can come up with such a design that will no doubt have a serious impact on kit sales.

Liverpool are RED and Everton are BLUE.

As Tony Barrett tweeted this morning: “Most vivid demonstration of a club's identity is the team's colours. Of course it matters.”
