I may need some pointers on how to deal with this. I can't handle them wearing white at home, as they never did this in the NASL or MLS (other than the occasional match, but it definitely wasn't the norm). https://www.twincities.com/2019/04/28/minnesota-united-drops-captain-francisco-calvo-from-sundays-lineup/ "Minnesota wore its newer “secondary” white kits on Sunday, a look they have had in all three home games this year. After wearing gray shirts during their two years at TCF Bank Stadium, white will continue to be their primary look at home in 2019." I like the white jerseys a lot more than most people here (why? I just think it “works”, however subjective that may be), but it should not be the primaries. Grey is a unique look in MLS, and they’re throwing that all away for... all white. Now watch as the brand new away for next year is all black. Minnesota will have gone from grey and light blue to white and black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They grey stripes look so generic, MNUFC and Adidas need to work out an agreement on a return of the wing. If my son's cheap Target jersey and my Allianz Field jacket can have a wing then the grey kit should be able to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would actually match the "Minnesota Black & Blue" chant we do, and a lot of the fans we've gained since moving to MLS are asking for that. I have a feeling though that each year, whatever new kit Minnesota gets will be the primary home kit that year. Somebody on the Minnesota United reddit page was saying that he was told that by somebody within the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upperV03 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Yesterday's matchups: Few notes: - NYRB/LAG was a nice looking red vs. blue matchup, although I wish the Red Bulls had worn white shorts. Also, for the second game in a row Zlatan had a customized, heat transferred captain’s armband: - The Texas Derby was an interesting looking matchup with the Dynamo in all-orange and the visiting FCD electing to wear the navy alternate shorts from their new secondaries with their primary kits. The red/navy/navy combo actually isn’t too bad. - As mentioned above, the Loons finally wore their gray primary kits at home rather than their white secondaries.

Digby Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Could do without the silly glitch pattern, but I really like the two-tone navy stripes as a LAG away look. Fan Style ShirtsShowcasing fan-made sports apparel by artists and designers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sky1324 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 It may just be the selection seen here, but I've decided I don't like all-white soccer kits. Not sure why, since I like them elsewhere (particularly in football), but the four here just seem uninspired and quite boring to look at. the user formerly known as cdclt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said at the beginning of the broadcast that KC likes to wear black when they are playing in primetime. I think it's stupid that they did, as their primaries would've made a much more visually appealing game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
