Makes sense. Wouldn't cost an arm and a leg extra.

yes it could- given that every time the player changes shape or the weather changes they need a new jumper

oh those skin folds now...

they just don't have enough to spend all their money on.. .. have run out of coaching positions ..

Very smart move, really. Put mids and defenders in tight jumpers that are hard to get a hold of and put forwards in looser, more elastic jumpers that make it obvious if a defender is holding it. Won't turn a bad team into a good one but it could be worth a goal a game.

Exactly. It's all about getting a slight edge.

So if you're an insider at the jumper making plant, can you put some cash on first goal if you get a strange request for a forwards jumper???

Apparently four other clubs are in discussions with the same company to make their jumpers.

This will be standard practice in a couple of years and all clubs will be doing it.

+1
Agree that it's bound to catch on, so we might as well get on board early.
At the very least wear the same tight and loose combinations verses the filthies.
