Social media was taken by storm yesterday when Chelsea announced their new home kit for the 2019/2020 season. If we were being kind, we’d say it split the crowd. It was based on the four stands at Stamford Bridge and features a print inspired by architectural features at the ground. And, well, it’s a bit of an eye blinder. Neville's United teammate Lee Sharpe was not so sure it was down to the kit, telling the Guardian: "I'm not sure if any of the players mentioned the kit. Personally I felt that we were playing really poorly, and that we couldn't really blame anything or anyone but ourselves."

Middlesbrough enjoyed an impeccable run of lovely home kits in the 1990s, with pretty much every design from 1995-96 through to 1998-99 still fondly remembered by fans. There’s the classic football shirts, we’re talking the original bruised banana kit from Arsenal’s 1991/92 Away offering, the endlessly iconic 1966 England World Cup strip. Football shirts that are delightfully retro, instantly recognisable and can be worn today without so much as a sideways glance in the pub. We think we've worked this out. Someone did a rough design using their new felt -tip pens and it got sent to the factory instead of the proper one where they'd designed it properly. That must be it. It must be.Perhaps with this in mind 43 per cent of football followers own original vintage shirts or reproductions of iconic shirts. A spokesman for FootballJunkie added: " Leicester ’s Admiral pioneered the replica shirt market in the 1970s, and ever since then millions and millions of football tops have been sold across the world. Ever heard the phrase "if you want something done well, you have to do it yourself"? That's what German gambling company Faber Lotto-Service did with local team Bochum in 1997. Not satisfied with Reebok's and Reusch's timid designs, and with zero experience of making kits, Faber posed as a sports manufacturer and created their own colourful shirts for Bochum's first foray into the UEFA Cup. The fans absolutely hated Faber's rainbow logo, and the collective anger when the shirt was unveiled in front of them was audible.

Poor Newcastle United fans. As if being run in a way that could charitably be called 'interesting' and perennially underachieving wasn't enough, they were lumbered with this 2-tone banana yellow jersey for their season in the Championship in 09/10. It's so bad it's actually quite funny. Pity those poor Huddersfield fans. After 1991's monstrosity, less than two years later they were faced with this in the club shop. It looks like a mop shortly after cleaning up an explosion at a paint factory.When the Guggenheim Museum opened in 1997, Bilbao became the home for Spanish arts. Well, 7 years later, Athletico took this a little too far by celebrating their centenary with a kit designed by Basque artist Dario Urzay. Ketchup on a shirt, yes. The 1986 Argentina home shirt made by Le Coq Sportif featured too – it’s memorable not only because it was also worn by Maradona but because his side won the World Cup that year.

Another kit synonymous with a particular player, the mere thought of Tottenham's glorious yellow away kit from the early 1990s immediately conjures images of Jurgen Klinsmann, the flaxen-haired Germany international striker who set hearts aflutter in North London. Rather than evoke the world of avant-garde art, it looks more like a close-up of some coral. The kit was worn during preseason in 2004 but was not seen again as Bilbao reverted to their traditional red-and-white stripes. For a start, orange and grey don't really work together and, secondly, the top half just seems to be a strange assortment of different sized oblongs. Utterly nonsensical.Respected Basque artist Dario Urzay designed this kit to commemorate the club's return to European competition and, according to the Guardian, it was inspired by the art in Bilbao's world-famous Guggenheim Museum.
