While they may look like a marauding gang of Ayia Napa club reps, what you’re actually looking at here is employees of Arsenal Football Club modelling their brand new third kit for the 2018/19 season.

Paired with that dreadful pinkish home shirt and a mottled navy away, the corresponding change strip is redolent in ‘toothpaste green’ which Puma reckon is “reminiscent of the Gunners’ 1982/83 ‘Bluebottle’ kit”.

We’re not too sure about that – and why on earth would you want to conjure images of one of the most unpopular Arsenal kits ever anyway?

Regardless, just like the new away kit, the third jersey features a subtle ‘W’ motif woven across the torso which serves a nod to the famous ‘WM’ formation introduced in the 1930s by legendary Arsenal manager Herbert Chapman.

The ‘M’ is included on the away shirt.

Gives it a minty fresh ‘Wonder Woman’ look, does it not?
