And Still More New Unis

Newcastle United: this third jersey, seen here on the left in their Intertoto Cup match, is the early front-runner for best jersey of the season; the sky blue & black combo works for Argentina & now the Geordies have brought it to club football. In fact, I've got to go order those shorts right now. 
Juventus: similar to last year's, except with a new collar. Pretty nice - they'll easily be the best dressed team in Serie B. 
Liverpool: now sponsored by adidas, the home strip is still classic, the away yellow is hard to miss (although the green sponsor is no good), and the new white third jersey is a throw-back to old Liverpool unis. Well done all around.
Olympique Lyon: few changes from last year's Umbro kit, aside from a new sponsor and the fact that the away red strip looks more like a billboard - seriously, like you'd buy that jersey?

Is it necessary to have 3 kits
P.S. That Newcastle kit is almost as bad as their back 4

If it's necessary to make as much money as possible, then yes. At one point I think some teams even had four: home, away, third, & a fourth for European competition.
If there's one thing that the Newcastle back four is good for, it's humor. Seriously, was there a more shocking development this summer than Jean-Alain Boumsong making it to a World Cup final? Helen Keller could bag a hat-trick on that bum. Watching him & Titus Bramble (one of the best names in the EPL) play defense is like watching a live bloopers video. And yet, all they do this summer is sign midfielders! Maybe they're planning on playing a 2-7-1 formation or something, who knows. Memo to Freddy Shepherd: you already have Parker, Emre, Butt, Faye, Dyer, Solano, N'Zogbia, Duff, and Luque - maybe a centerback or a striker would be a good idea. Just a thought.
