Another Premier League season is on the horizon and that means we at 90min towers have a new set of kits to critique.

As my good friend Homer Simpson once said, it's not just easy to criticise - it's fun, too.

Who's drowning in sauce and who's drowning their sorrows? Who's heading to the club shop and who's heading to the club? Which kits are dripping and which are we dropping?

Ok, I'm out of puns. Let's get into it.

20.

Why have you done this? / Charlie Crowhurst/GettyImages

Positives: It's an official piece of Brighton & Hove Albion merchandiseNegatives: It probably shouldn't beIt was all going so well, Brighton. And then the yellow was added.

19. Southampton

Like Ajax, but worse / Robin Jones/GettyImages

Positives: Hummel are thinking outside the boxNegatives: They should no longer think outside the boxSouthampton have had some daring throwback designs in recent years. This is not their best work.

18. Wolverhampton Wanderers

The red on the sponsor doesn't really help / Quality Sport Images/GettyImages

Positives: The brighter the amber the betterNegatives: It looks like it's going to rip at any momentThe design on Wolves' home kit is fairly safe and that's fine. The amount of sweat seeping through and flimsy material it looks to be made of? Big no-no.

17. Manchester United

Trying too hard to be retro / Matthew Ashton - AMA/GettyImages

Positives: Eric Cantona-inspired collarNegatives: Man Utd will do anything to relive the glory days, huh?This is Manchester United Football Club (and their home kit) we are talking about here. And it stinks. The patterns on the shirt and collar are hideous.

16. Aston Villa

How very 2009 / Matthew Ashton - AMA/GettyImages

Positives: Hard to get Villa's claret and blue scheme wrongNegatives: Doesn't seem like that was for the want of tryingAnother kit treading the fine line between simple and boring. I'm leaning slightly towards the latter.

15. Leeds United

White hot / Ashley Allen/GettyImages

Positives: Could be a classicNegatives: Could be the same Leeds kit as every other for the last 30 yearsThe white looks crisp, the blend of blue and yellow works well. So...why does it only add to my belief that Leeds are going to have a terrible season?

14. Fulham

Any chance of bringing Pizza Hut back? / Paul Harding/GettyImages

Positives: Unique collar patternNegatives: A quick Google search will probably reveal it's not uniqueLike with Leeds, adidas always give Fulham some trendy designs. But until they can prove that they're not Norwich City playing in white, that means very little, I'm afraid.

13. Liverpool

Yes, it's a Liverpool kit / Visionhaus/GettyImages

Positives: Gorgeous shade of redNegatives: It is literally only that red for 99% of the kitFeeling daring, were we, Nike?

12. Bournemouth

Milan eat your hearts out / Christopher Lee/GettyImages

Positives: Imaginative use of stripe patternNegatives: Almost definitely being known as the kit Bournemouth finished 20th inAfter at first being repulsed by Bournemouth's black and red stripes, it's hard to actually be too offended by Umbro's design.

11.

Looking good, Madders / Alex Morton/GettyImages

Positives: Big Harry Hill collarNegatives: If anything it's not big enoughListen, Leicester, if you're going to try and go retro, at least go all in. Why isn't that collar down to the chest?

10. Brentford

Same again for the Bees / Sebastian Frej/MB Media/GettyImages

Positives: Helping fans save moneyNegatives: Just a bit dull, initBrentford made a pledge towards the end of 2021 that they would carry their home kit into the next season. A fine commitment but one that isn't creative, so they get the midtable spot.

9.

A fine effort / Chris Brunskill/Fantasista/GettyImages

Positives: Neat little details based on Prince Rupert's TowerNegatives: Why am I supposed to care about that?Finally, an Everton kit without a hideously ugly shade of yellow to ruin it.

8.

Oh yes / Stu Forster/GettyImages

Positives: That's how you keep a striped-design cleanNegatives: Castore taxNot a huge fan of sky blue becoming a regular thing on Newcastle home kits, but this is as good as it's going to look with it and it's still superb.

7. Chelsea

Suits you, Raheem / Trevor Ruszkowski/ISI Photos/GettyImages

Positives: Timelessly simple yet effectiveNegatives: This writer's prejudicesA lot of people have been blown away by Chelsea's home kit for the new season. Personally not as fussed, but hey, it's still pretty good. A nice lil Europa Conference League place for you, Nike.

6. Tottenham Hotspur

White shorts in Europe will complete the look / Visionhaus/GettyImages

Positives: A cracking modern take on a classicNegatives: This writer's biasesWhen Spurs' new home kit was leaked earlier this year, I considered sitting outside Hotspur Way with a sign which read 'NO TO NEON YELLOW'. But the design has since grown on me, which is good because Hotspur Way is miles out from civilisation.

5. Manchester City

A throwback effort / Visionhaus/GettyImages

Positives: Puma finally made a great kitNegatives: There has to be a catchBringing back the burgundy trim and going for a central logo? May as well sign the Gallagher brothers up for the new season if you're feeling this 1990s, Man City.

4. Nottingham Forest

Lovely / Chris Brunskill/GettyImages

Positives: No sponsor is a big winNegatives: It might be one of Forest's only wins this season, eh!!!!Heads up Forest, adding an ugly shirt sponsor will see you moved down about 11 places.

3. Arsenal

Positives: adidas and Arsenal are undefeated in this businessNegatives: It's a shame that on-field performances haven't matched in recent yearsThis might be the most Arsenal kit that Arsenal have ever had. They're not pedalling Man Utd's collar-up rubbish, either.

2. West Ham United

A great mix of old simplicity and new features / Ian MacNicol/GettyImages

Positives: Best claret and blue kit of all timeNegatives: It's still claret and blueHello, West Ham's club shop? 90min's Toby Cudworth would like to place a bulk order for these beauties.

1. Crystal Palace

Positives: If I were a Palace fan I would buy eight of theseNegatives: You're not getting my money, Steve ParishIf we were ranking all kits in general this season, then Palace's three for the upcoming campaign would rank first, second and third. Macron have come up with some legendary designs for the Eagles befitting of a proper 'streets won't forget' team.
