The club launched their 2016/17 strip tonight amid much fanfare in the city, with three first team players selected for the, ahem, honour. https://twitter.com/NBFootball/status/729735885189722113 Jon Flanagan, Simon Mignolet, and Philippe Coutinho all got the chance to model the new kit for the first time this evening, and it's a lovely effort. It's red, well done, New Balance. lkm They have gone for a yellow lettering rather than the current white option on this year's kit, and the goalkeeper is a toxic green colour. There is also some nice yellow details to the kit,  and we really like the collar. https://twitter.com/LFC/status/729735836426702850 The lads looked only delighted in their kit this evening. 1 2 And not trusting footballers to stand on a stage in a line, there was even a helpful markings on the ground for them. Bless. 3 The kit also features a special tribute to Anfield, with the message "There's no noise like the Anfield noise."
