5. Manchester United

Manchester United come into 2018-19 with an interesting primary look. Their home kit features a gradient pattern that blends into the shorts, from red to black. However, unlike Tottenham’s kit, this one actually looks good. The kit also comes with a bit of history, as it is meant to be a tribute to the club’s founders, the railway men of Newton Heath.

Adidas’ familiar three stripes adorn the shoulders and the large logo of Chevrolet is once again in the middle. United have consistently been close to the top of the pack in terms of their kits, and this year is no exception.

The real star for United is their third kit. A navy blue and gold option, it is the first United kit to actually take the Chevy logo off your mind, if only briefly. If you can’t get around your sponsor, you should learn to work with them, and that’s exactly what United have done this season.

Kohler is on the sleeves this time around, and as far as sleeve sponsors go, it’s not bad. Look at it this way, United fans: You could have  had”Angry Birds” on your sleeve all season.

Manager Jose Mourinho has often been criticized for the way his teams play, with detractors saying that their brand of soccer isn’t as exciting as it should be for a team with as many stars as United have. No matter how United play on the pitch, they certainly won’t look like a boring team as far as their kits are concerned.
