MY THOUGHTS

I've been wanting a Shakhtar Donetsk shirt long before I started collecting football shirts. I once even bought what I thought was a football shirt from their official website only to find out I had bought a training top instead. I like orange football shirts so I'm glad I could finally add this shirt to my collection. This shirt is the player issue option which is a nice bonus as I managed to get this shirt at a decent enough price.
