My wife: "You're not getting these new World Cup shirts are you?" Me: "No, there's too many and I want to concentrate on 90s stuff so don't worry" Also me: oops

Lovely little addition to the Japan collection, the underrated 2014/15 home shirt. Huge fan of the sun burst pattern radiating from the crest. The red brush stroke effect across the shoulders is a lovely touch, but prone to disintegrating, so to find one pretty much intact is a bonus. Who remembers Shinji Kagawa!?

🚨New Delivery🚨 One of World Cup 98's most underrated shirts, this superb Denmark Hummel number has so much going for it. The star of the show being that huge debossed crest slap bang in the middle of the shirt. I am also a huge fan of the oversized name set, bet the commentators had no issues reading those names. Denmark of course ran Brazil close in the quarter finals, before succumbing 3-2. Captain Michael Laudrup hung up his boots following the tournament, one of Denmark's greatest players. @memorylanefc providing yet another worldie.

Bring this to every stadium, I beg you.
🇩🇪 🚨 𝗡𝗘𝗪: Borussia Dortmund will REWARD fans who DON’T use their phones during matches! The German club is introducing a new “Fan Mode” in its official app, where supporters earn points for every minute they go without unlocking their phones. Fans who collect the most points can win SIGNED SHIRTS and shopping vouchers. The initiative comes after a study found that 63% of supporters regularly use their phones during matches.

So, my collection has taken a certain turn recently. And with the announcement that Nike are relaunching the iconic Total 90 brand, now is the perfect time for a thread of what I have been putting together.

It's been awhile but a new T90 has finally entered the building. The Ferencvaros 04/06 home, as worn in consecutive UEFA Cup campaigns. Long sleeve just makes it better.

RC Lens 04/05 Third Shirt Absolute belter of a T90, and not one you see very often. A number of different sponsor variations exist, the French league was a minefield for sponsors in the early noughties. Lovely pale blue base and a rich burgundy name panel and trim. Malian midfield enforcer Seydou Keita on the back.

🚨New Delivery🚨 Thanks to @thekitsbaia I now have the player spec version of one of the best modern shirt out there. The stupendous Corinthians 22/23 Special Edition shirt to commemorate the 10th anniversary of their Club World Cup win in 2012 held in Japan. Complete with one of the best namesets out there, check out the details on those numbers. Love how even the names got the Japanese treatment, Roger Guedes by the way.

We have zero control in the middle of the park with Jaissle's tactics. Teams can just play straight through us. How many times did Suzuki just play a pass along the ground into the centre circle? All fine playing with 10, but out of possession that 10 needs to drop to make 3 man midfield. Poor once again. Hall and Miley the only positives.

🚨New Delivery🚨 Second belting delivery in 2 days! This time the gorgeous @PSV Coen Dillen Special Edition. Paying tribute the club's greatest striker, nicknamed Het Kanon (the Canon), he scored 287 goals in 328 league games. He also holds the record for the most goals in a single Eredivise season, 43. A stunning retro throwback from Puma, with the old crest and clean sponsorless stripes. When Puma get it right, they get it spot on. Finished off with a final nod to the big man on the back, along with his favoured number 9. Another for @ChatShirt end of year list?

That, @nufc, was utter, utter garbage. Opportunity to go fourth and really push on. But the all too familiar performance against lower table teams. It's all well and good turning up against the top 5 or 6, but there are more points on offer if we turn up against the other 13 /14 teams!! Sort it out man!!

🚨New Delivery🚨 SV Werder Bremen "100 Years of the Weserstadion" Special Edition. If this isn't in @ChatShirt shirt if the year top 10, we are going to have a falling out. With all the hype around other shirts, somehow this has gone totally under the radar. Once again, though, Hummel and Werder have smashed it out of the park. Beautiful crisp white base, with embossed wavey lines to symbolise the Weser River, on whose banks the club's Stadium has sat for 100 years. 🧵👇🏻

We then have some lovely details commemorating the stadium itself, with a graphic in the collar, sign off on the back of the neck and date tag.

Rounded off by a super nameset font and white out Bundesliga and sleeve sponsor logos. I went for club captain, Austrian Centre Back, Marco Friedl.
