If there is one good thing Liverpool have done...

..it is cleaning up their badge. Arsenal's logo/badge/crest isn't awful by any means, but with such a strong symbol like the cannon synonymous with the club, why not simplify the badge to just that?

Look how beautiful and simple it looks on the shirt http://www.toffs.com/content/images/thumbs/0010094_arsenal-1970s-short-sleeve-retro-football-shirt.jpeg

I know you all agree right? :)

Yes, every person on the planet agrees, except for the people in Arsenal's army of solicitors and PR people. I never liked the new logo, it's too time-specific (early 00s), and the font is cringe in more ways than one. Near comic sans feel to it.

The logo should be just the cannon, on its own. Everywhere. It's classier, more striking, more impactful, cleaner, timeless and better in every sense. But it's never going to happen.

I like the way NY Yankees have done it with having a more elaborate "offical" logo, and a simpler one on the gear. So in our example I would like to go back to something like we had before the present logo as the offical one and use a cannon on our kits and stuff.

Happens a lot in American sports. Wish we'd do the same.

What if we engineered you into the head branding position??
