i sure am going to miss the O2.

p.s. does anyone else think that van Persie looks like our national animal? shouldn't he be on our nickel?

Ah, the national Canadian animal is a beaver, according to Google.

My first bet after seeing the picture was
a moose.

I too loved the 02. It always made for interesting conversations with Canadians that have no idea about the telecom company (why does your shirt have oxygen on it?). I don't mind the new one, it's better than the redcurrant from last year or the previous year's shirt with the gold outline IMO. It's certainly better than some of Arsenal's past jerseys (such as 91-93 away, 95-97 away, 85 away)

The new Chelsea kit: home, away

Man Utd: home

Liverpool: home & away

Tottenham: home

Oops. Wrong Liverpool image. Liverpool away

The Man Utd one is supposed to be a tribute to the Busby Babes team of the 1950's (the Munich crash of '58) which explains it's retro look. I actually don't mind the white background for the crest, but AIG needs to drop the rectangle from around their name.
