What were they thinking?
It’s nice that New York City FC went to all this trouble of presenting their new away kit to their fans, but after witnessing the absolute state of it, we really wouldn’t have bothered.

The MLS club decided to ‘surprise’ supporters in their promotional video (whisper it but it all looks a little staged to us) but only real shock is quite how rank awful the design is.
Not only does the fluorescent orange detailing jar with the blue of the shirt, but somebody seems to have thrown the NYC badge into a mucky puddle, judging by the weird spiral design.
According to the marketing blurb, the ‘radiating graphic elements’ celebrate the ‘energy of NYC’. We’ve got another description for it – p*ss ripples. Fittingly, Andrea Pirlo is not amused…

Nor are the fans particularly impressed…
