“That Jersey was the fan favourite and I don’t why this must happen. It’s so heart breaking”-Why Man Utd will stop wearing their green away kit for the rest of the season

Manchester United has taken a decisive step by deciding to shelve their controversial away kit for the remainder of the season, citing a straightforward reason.

After their disappointing 1-1 draw against Brentford over the weekend, marking their 14th occasion dropping points this season, the team sported their green and white striped away kit for what now seems to be its final appearance. The choice of attire sparked mixed reactions among United fans, with some voicing dissatisfaction over its perceived departure from the club’s traditional identity, while others linked the kit to a series of unfortunate results.

Reported by the Daily Mail, United will bid farewell to this kit as their upcoming away fixtures do not require its use. Matches against Chelsea, Brighton, and Coventry City in the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley will see United don their iconic red strip, as no kit clashes are expected. Additionally, for games against Bournemouth and Crystal Palace, United will opt for their white third kit to avoid color clashes with the opposition’s home attire.

While the retirement of the contentious away kit may appease its critics, Manchester United still faces a daunting task in securing a top-four finish and clinching Champions League qualification. With 11 league defeats already recorded this season, the team must proceed with caution to avoid setting an undesirable club record of 13 losses in a single campaign.
