Chelsea have officially announced their new third kit

While a retro look is always welcome, the fact that it looks less like a Chelsea shirt remains a confusing aspect.

The colour Red and Chelsea get along as well as the Champions League and Manchester City. Although the one used in the design is more of a pinkish hue rather than the crimson a number of our rivals have in use.

The design looks to be inspired from Chelsea’s famours Umbro away kit from the 1997-98 season. While the design in itself isn’t bad, the choice of the colours in it has divided opinion among fans.
