So what if that lot from across town have
pretty much won the Premier League title
already, Monday still turned out to be an
historic day for Manchester United.
Why? Well, because for the first time in their
long and proud history, the Old Trafford club
have just launched a brand new digital fourth
kit. Yeah, you can keep your 11-point lead and
beautiful, free-flowing football, thank you very
much.
To be clear, the new design, which can be seen
in the video below, is exclusive to Fifa 18's
Ultimate Team - meaning real life United players
won't be turning out in it any time soon, and
real life United fans won't be rushing to the
Megastore to get their hands on one in time for
Christmas. How very modern.
Only in #FIFA18 Ultimate Team. Our first
ever digital fourth kit. https://

United aren't the only team to launch their own
digital fourth kit. Fellow European giants Real
Madrid, Juventus and Bayern Munich - all of
which also play in adidas kits - have also got in
on the action, with all of their designs available
to have a look at here.
United kept up the pressure on Manchester
City won away at West Brom on Sunday,
restoring the three point gap between
themselves and Chelsea.
