Seattle Sounders Third 2013


 
Djimi Traore in action

As you can probably guess from the amount of Liverpool shirts I have, I am in fact a Liverpool fan. Djimi Traore was the left back for Liverpool when Liverpool beat AC Milan on penalties in that famous comeback from 3-0 down. If it wasn't for Traore clearing one off the line then Liverpool may not have won that night. Djimi Traore has become a sort of cult hero for Liverpool fans, well for me he has. He was quite good off the ball at tackling but then his clumsiness on the ball did let him down quite a lot. One of his famous clumsy moments is his own goal against Burnley which knocked Liverpool out of the FA Cup 3rd round. On the other hand Djimi Traore at the start of his Seattle Sounders career scored one of the best volleys you'll see from a left back. When you realise it was Djimi Traore that scored the goal you just have to look in amazement at it.

Toulouse Home 2012




Corinthians Home 2012

 

 

 

 


This shirt was worn by Corinthians in the 2012 Club World Championship final when Corinthians defeated Chelsea. Paulinho has now transferred to Tottenham since winning the CWC with Corinthians and has made an impressive start so far.

Barcelona Away 2013


 


This is the first season Barcelona have ever worn the colour of the Catalonia flag on one of their kits which is the region Barcelona is based in. I personally think it is a nice kit and it has the name of Andres Iniesta on the back who in fact is my favourite Barcelona player. I'm not one to follow the trend and jump on the Messi bandwagon although he also is very good.

Barcelona Home 2005


Ivory Coast Home 2006

 



As you can probably see from my blog posts you can tell that I am indeed a Liverpool fan. Also if you follow football you will also notice that Liverpool got Kolo Toure on a free transfer this season. Kolo Toure has instantly became a fans favourite at the club with a string of impressive performances and just generally being a legend and all that. This then made me go out and buy an Ivory Coast shirt with Kolo Toure on the back. It just had to be done. 

 

and here's a picture of Kolo Toure to cheer you up if you ever feel down.
