That this kit was inspired by AC Milan, and Kaka has such affection for his former club, makes it seem so right that he should come to City.
I'm sure it will become the highest selling shirt/number combo we have had.newcrossblue said:I won't mind if his first photograph is with him holding the away shirt with his name on it. It will show a seamless transition to being a City player.

Thats not right - you have to wear an away kit 8 times in a season to be allowed to sell it as a replicar shirt!! We will have worn one of our away kits more than 8 times come May.

Your wrong because, think about it, you only play 19 games with 2 away kits(2nd and 3rd)your not telling me, we wear them 16 times leaving only 3 times you wear your home shirt away from home?

Im sure the 3rd kit is branded as a 'UEFA' kit; so its chances to be worn will be split between the league and UEFA?

They wore charcoal at Newcastle... that's it.Cal said:Fair enough that the black and red kit was inspired by AC Milan, but if (when) Kaka signs, he is a City player not a Milan player...so he will have to love wearing blue, and, yeah maybe red and black if they are still the away kit colours.
And regarding the 'wearing it 8 times' rule...I can't be arsed looking to see if that's true, but if the guy that posted it can prove it, then I will believe you, until then, I think it's a load of bollocks. Find 8 games that Hull have clashed with anyone and had to wear their away kit.
i thought we wore that strip before milan, and they copied us!newcrossblue said:I sincerely hope that Kaka insists that whenever possible away from home we wear the black and red stripe away kit, and that we should have this away kit every year.

but we wear our away kit at home too
Wheelsy OSC Sydney said:For legibility, the back must not have stripes where the names and numbers are. So we would have to make the whole back of the shirt black.

I have only ever seen us wear our away kit at home twice in 30 years(oddly both times against Spurs)?

Boro the day Foulup missed the penalty that would have seen us into Europe.
