Reaching the peak of soccer fandom is still a way to come for the Dubs popular society. While the recent successes of our very own boys and girls squads have been prominent over the years, the global fame that has been bestowed upon soccer hasn’t quite diffused to our local communities. However, if there was anyone to help enlighten the school on the amazement that the worldwide game has to offer, look no further than us two guys.
However, instead of looking at boring old game analysis and boring everyone to sleep, we are taking a different approach to the fun of the beautiful game. And what can get more beautiful than the extravagant uniforms or “kits” of the most prestigious league in the world: the Premier League. Not just any kits, but the craziest of kits imaginable in this year’s edition of special third option kits. Now without further ado, let’s get to rating and ranking.
Arsenal 8.5/10 – The bold color scheme and unique patterns seamlessly blend modern flare with a dash of tradition. The blend of purple and turquoise may not represent the color of the Gunners, but it showcases the vibes of North London.
Bournemouth: 6/10 – The aqua blue and oceanic graphics of the kit represent the geographical location of the town. Even though the jersey makes a bold statement, its execution makes a mediocre statement, similar to the club.
Chelsea: 8/10 – Class! Unlike the team’s performance in the past few seasons, this kit is what a real Londoner would call quality. Other than the vertical Nike logo, the blending of pink, with contrasting black and gray combine to make a kit in which Chelsea fans hope bring the team glory.
Crystal Palace: 10/10 – Oh my days! What John Underwood thinks looks like a Pepsi can is an absolute beauty. The blending of the red and blue in the middle of the shirt is a combination of fire and ice. We wouldn’t be surprised if someone wore this to graduation. Chefs kiss!
Liverpool: 5.5/10 – Same old same old for Liverpool with this rather average white and red third kit. Similar to those of the past, the only true difference in this kit is the vertical Nike logo in the top right, which doesn’t enhance anything whatsoever.
Manchester City: 8/10 – The opposite of many of the aforementioned jerseys, this kit goes for a pretty typical idea but with excellent performance. The contrasting maroon shading alongside the semi-gold logos makes for a true standout kit.
Manchester United: 8.5/10 – United further proves the prowess of the Adidas set in the 2024-25 campaign. With the fierce two red and black respective stripes on the top going over the appealing cream shading of the jersey, this kit overall makes for one of the best kits we see this year in the league.
Newcastle: 7/10 – What seems like a Saudi Arabian-based kit (which it quite frankly is) at first glance gets even more pleasing to the eye with a further glance. While the badge makes the kit a tad bit underwhelming, the mint green, black, and white splashes make up for it.
Southampton: 2/10 – This kit is nothing less than an absolute horror show. The incredibly bright pink represents nothing of Southampton and, even worse, is done with atrocious execution. Appoint us as kit managers at this point
Spurs: 5/10 – Tottenham’s 2024-25 jersey is a portrayal of their lack of success against their North London rivals. Compared to Arsenal’s brilliant kits, Tottenham’s kits are rather par for the course, with the green shirt being an utter snooze fest.
