FC Barcelona 2007-2008 Home Short Sleeve Football Shirt [As worn by Eto’o, Henry & Ronaldinho]

Description

This is the fully-customizable short-sleeve home kit for Barcelona’s 2007-2008 season.

This kit is a special one, not because of the results, but because it marked the transition between Rijkaard’s Ronaldinho-led Barcelona, to Guardiola’s Messi-led Barca. The team was loaded with big names, as just some of the players to wear this shirt were Thierry Henry, Ronaldinho, Lionel Messi (who wore No. 19 at the time), Samuel Eto’o, Deco, Xavi, Iniesta, and so on.

The team’s manager was Frank Rijkaard, who failed to win anything with Barcelona falling to Manchester United in the semi-final of the European Cup, as Real Madrid won the domestic league with Barcelona being 8 points behind them. The worst of all, Blaugrana suffered two El Clasico losses that season, with the second one especially painful as Barcelona, lost 4-1 at the Bernabeu. All of this prompted a change in the form of Pep Guardiola’s arrival, and the rest is, as they say, history. We also have the Barcelona 2007-2008 Long-Sleeve Jersey in our store.

Notable Players: Ronaldinho, Samuel Eto’o, Thierry Henry, Deco, Carles Puyol, Lionel Messi, Gianluca Zambrotta, Ludovic Giuly, Xavi Hernandez, Andrés Iniesta, Yaya Touré

Main Points

• The jersey is 100% polyester. It’s breathable, and made for a life on the move.
• Fully customizable with the name and number of your favourite player or even yours! Just choose the Custom Jersey Option and then message us your desired name and number or write them in the order’s notes at checkout.
• Replica (Fan) Version. In football jerseys, there are two types of jerseys, and two kinds of qualities. There is the Replica Version, also called Fan or Stadium version, as well as the Player (or Match) Issue version – which is what players actually wear. The Replica is meant for fans and is the entry-level option – but is still very high quality, while the Authentic version is made for players and features different, higher quality materials.
• Tighter fit: make sure you choose the right sizing. We recommend buying one size bigger than you usually wear. This will ensure the jersey will fit.

Sizing Guidelines

Adult Sizing

This jersey comes in five adult sizes, which have a tiny difference: they’re a smaller fit. Our suggestion is to pick your size 1 size bigger than you usually would. If you usually wear an M, pick an L. If you usually wear an S, pick an M.

Kid’s Sizing

We also have kid’s sizing, which includes the jersey along with the shorts. Kid’s kits come from size 16 to 28, and can fit kids ranging from 95cm (for size 16) up to 160cm (for size 28).
