Any Player, Any Shirt, Any Era

[David Guiza]

I was listening to another Socially Distanced Sports Bar pod on the way to work and they got on to the topic of discussing which player's shirt from which era they would take if it were possible. I think it escalated from talking about a Charlie Nicholas' Celtic shirt that was stolen from the National Football Museum. 

 

I'm a lover of 90s football, so I think I'd go for the following:-

 

Leicester City - Muzzy Izzet - 1996 

 

Non-Leicester City - AS Roma - 1992 - Totti

 

Honourable mentions:-

 

 

 

[Guest Electric Yetis]

[Finnegan]

 

He'd just scored the winner vs Germany 

 

 

He'd just scored the winner vs Italy

 

 

I mean I can think of cooler options, a Nakata Parma one, a David Silva Valencia one, etc. But those two would have the most sentimental value.

Any of the 90s Fiorentina shirts really, but Batistuta and this one stick out in my memory

Yes, love that one. 

 

Always reminds me of his goal v United in 2000 -

Always loved the Parma one. Something about the bright yellow and early Saturday mornings made it stick in my mind. Such a shame when it all blew up, but happy to see them back in the top flight (for the time being).

Man that Parma one is lovely. Takes me right back. Do Champion make kits any more cos if they don't then they should! 

[AKCJ]

I've always loved these kits

The greatest football shirt of all time imo. Can’t find any pictures of it being worn though

Nice topic, three easy choices for me for two reasons.

 

1) It’s Holland

2) The history of them

 

Van Basten Euro 1988 final

 

Bergkamp World Cup 1998 Quarter Final vs Argentina

 

Van Persie 2014 World Cup vs Spain

I've never been a huge Nike fan as they just don't seem to age as well as Adidas/other brands, but that '98 Dutch kit was fantastic and will always remind of the goal in that picture.

I remember buying this top for a tenner off my mate and my dad made me give it back 😂 I was about 10 years old at the time.

Unfortunately that 'keepers kit is not a jersey unique to us!

Which other clubs had it?

When Scotland qualified for the Euros I had a look at their France 98 squad and ended up in a little rabbit hole. Stumbled across this photo of Jim Leighton, I don't recognise the crest but Wikipedia would suggest he'd have been at either Hibernian or Aberdeen?
