Did Arsenal get the logo wrong on the new away kit? The position of the cannon infuriated the Gunners fans

Ten days ago Arsenal launched the new away kit, bringing to light the colors and simplicity that belonged in 1971 to the team that managed to win the first Double in the history of the Gunners. But if on the one hand the shirt - which has already made its debut in the match won against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park - has convinced most of the fans, on the other there is a detail that has not gone unnoticed. The away kit, in addition to the characteristic Pearl Citrine, has focused heavily on the official return of the cannon on an official game shirt. Having attracted much of the attention, it is the cannon that raises some doubts.

The last appearance on a shirt dates back to 1991, while on shorts it will be reviewed until 2002 before officially returning 20 years later. On both occasions, however, the cannon points to the left while that of the 2021-22 season points to the right, in the opposite direction.

While it may actually seem like a mistake, the return of the cannon in a different direction is the result of a legal matter. Many have allowed themselves to be misled by the position of the cannon, neglecting the bureaucratic process and the regulation behind a logo.
