Liverpool fans probably thought they would never see the day but after the Merseyside club unveiled a new third kit, they will see their team play in the blue of local rivals?Everton next season.
The strip for the 2011/12 campaign is mainly white but shows enough blue trim to probably cause enough Reds followers to face an identity crisis on away days from Anfield next term.
Are you sure about this? Steven Gerrard poses in Liverpool's third shirt for the 2011/12 season
Fear not though Liverpool fans as the 'cyan' colour choice from Adidas is in fact a nod towards the club's first home kit from almost 120 years ago which incorporated white and blue halves. It wasn't until Bill Shankly became manager that the home kit became completely red, in 1964.
The new design takes its inspiration from the classic tracksuit tops of the 1980s, incorporating the diagonal stripe across the front of the shirt.
It's Liverpool's second new strip revealed this summer after releasing a black away kit last month, but it will still cost fans a wallet-hitting ?50 for an adult replica which can be pre-ordered before it goes on sale on July 14.
Either way it's the closest you will get to seeing any blue in the Kop end next season.
