I like the deep blood red, it reminded me of that snippet in Ian St Johns autobiography.

He [Shankly] thought the colour scheme would carry psychological impact—red for danger, red for power. He came into the dressing room one day and threw a pair of red shorts to Ronnie Yeats. "Get into those shorts and let’s see how you look", he said. "Christ, Ronnie, you look awesome, terrifying. You look 7ft tall." "Why not go the whole hog, boss?" I suggested. "Why not wear red socks? Let’s go out all in red." Shankly approved and an iconic kit was born.

If the design on the collar and under the arms is anything to go by, that purple third kit is real

Would anyone want Rafa to return with anything but a very large spending budget? Unless FSG are willing to invest heavily on a regular basis, I can't see Rafa being successful.

why is there a theory that Rafa needs a kings ransom to be successful?

he bought Reina, Agger, Skrtel, Arbeloa, Alonso and Lucas for a relative pittance. Although not as important Luis Garcia, Benayoun, Kuyt and Sissoko were cheap aswell considering what they produced on the pitch. Other players like Bellamy, Crouch, Carson, San Jose, Leto were all sold for good profits to enable other signings plus Mascherano and Torres although dear also netted the club big big money.

We always challenged in Europe and every club hated playing us, out of six seasons we had two excellent league campaigns. If anything it was the constant unrest at boardroom level that caused the club to buckle at a time when we had some excellent players but no money available to get some squad depth.

So question should be not if Rafa would want to return with anything but a hefty budget but more like would Rafa like to return under a healthy ownership who actually know something about sport.
