Calcutta posted this in the Transfer thread, but ESPN reports that the Silvestre signing is official. Can't wait to read the Arseblog tomorrow...

I think Arsenal's away kits this year are awful! The white kits fro last year, I thought, were class. Plus, why do they want to use any sort of yellow? I associate that with Spurs, it'd be like Tottenham unveiling a red kit. yuck.

The Gunners have used yellow for years, though I admit I loved the white jersey last year (I bought one myself) and am sad to see it go.

I know, but so has Tottenham. It seems like years that Spurs doesn't have a yellow kit (like this year), Arsenal has one and vice versa. It's just weird because I associate yellow more often with Spurs.

I'm pretty sure it's the third kit this season, so you'll see it every once in awhile.

The way I see it, Arsenal started using yellow before Tottenham.

Yellow is associated with Leeds though, for sure.

I'm sure taht we can all agree that Leeds sux though!!

And that 91-93 yellow kit! What was Nike thinking back then???!!

Arsenal has forever had great kit's...

I find the new one's atrocious though...

I don't know why teams keep changing...I hate the new Chelsea one too. I bought a JT jersey over a year ago and already feel the need to get an updated one again.

EDIT: Not to hijack the thread, but Chelsea has new yellow kits this year, since we're on the subject of yellow...

take a look.
