THE VITALS:

Team: Manchester United

Brand: Nike

Era: 2006-07 (Used for the 2006-07 Barclays Premiership season, and the 2007 FA Cup Final)

Name/Number: -

CONDITION: GOOD

I would say that this shirt is in decent condition, as the photos show however; there is some cracking and wear to the sponsor as well as slight discolouring to the white trim on the sleeves and collar. In addition, there is some slight bobbling and pulls to the material, they are reasonable however and nothing less than one would really expect from a shirt which is over 10 years old.

DIMENSIONS:

Size: Small

Pit to Pit Measurement: 18.5 inches

Shirt Length: 25.5 inches 

This shirt is made in the Nike Sphere Dry style which Nike used for their jerseys from 2006-2007, so this is a slightly baggier fit compared to the Nike ‘Dri-Fit’ shirts made today.

DESCRIPTION:

In the first Manchester United shirt to sponsored by AIG, the past would be evoked by Nike as the 2006-07 offering paid tribute to the ‘Busby Babes’ and their first European frontier in the 1956-57 season. The change would be a masterstroke as United reclaimed the Premier League after a 3 year separation from the title, and in addition, would reach the UEFA Champions League semi-final for the first time since the 2001-02 season, and also reach that seasons FA Cup final.

The notable players that season were:

Wayne Rooney, Henrik Larsson, Louis Saha, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Cristiano Ronaldo, Michael Carrick, Darren Fletcher, Park Ji-Sung, John O’Shea, Gary Neville, Rio Ferdinand, Nemanja Vidic, Mikael Silvestre, Wes Brown, Patrice Evra, Gabriel Heinze, Edwin van der Sar
