had a quick look on the ea access trial of FIFA 20, and that teaser image definitely lines up with the one on the game.

Didn't realise Paladin were a sister company to Nike but apparently so ?

I wish it was black so we don't look all McDonaldsy, but what can you do - just happy to have a sponsor tbh

I think I'm in the minority here, but I still don't like it. My fave kit was the original stripey and I preferred a more golden yellow instead of this hi-vis, glow in the dark yellow we keep getting. Plus I just like traditional style kits, these wannabe futuristic ones generally leave me cold. Especially as a home strip. I'm willing to accept a bit more adventure on the away kit. 

Look at this kit and imagine a gold-yellow instead of blue...

Are we in store for more than two kits? This doesn't look like the home or away

Looks exactly like the leaked away. That was black with yellow trim, like this one.

Whilst I quite like the look of out new kit, I would take something like this in a heartbeat tbh

Yesss, but I mean the whole vibe of it is more or less the same, which is basically a recolour of the home design. Different coloured stripes but same design.

Oh weird.  I don't know where I got the idea that there is usually 3 regular season kits.

Ignore me then :)

There does seem to be a third most years, but I think for the most part it's done for a reason or one-off game and not as a dedicated third kit if that makes sense? 

There was that black and grey hoopy one year which may be the exception. Maybe.

Away kit stripes clearly aren't yellow in the photo - but look very yellow on the footballcentral store front. Maybe just the lighting.
