The Reds look as if they are turning yellow after Liverpool unveiled their brand new away strip.
Brendan Rodgers' side narrowly missed out on a first title in 24 years, being pipped to the Premier League crown by Manchester City.
But already the focus is on the 2014-15 campaign, and it's one that sees the return of yellow to the Liverpool change strip for the first time since 2007.
Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva showed his delight at the new strip returning to a traditional away colour.
Lucas said: 'I love the look of this kit, for me the stand out Liverpool away kits were always the yellow ones.’
In line with the new home kit, a modern crew neck collar is designed for freedom of movement and comfort.
The two embroidered Eternal Flames alongside a 96 logo are located on the nape of the shirt’s neck to commemorate the tragic events at Hillsborough in 1989.
Liverpool will enter a third season under the £25million partnership with manufactures Warrior, whose previous away designs have been notable for including wacky patterns, with the latest yellow number arguably their most conservative approach to date.
Luis Suarez was one of the Liverpool stars modelling the new kit, with the Merseyside club sending out a message to their rivals that they intend to keep their prized attacking asset ahead of a return to the Champions League next term.
The PFA and FWA Player of the Year has attracted interest from the likes of Real Madrid and Barcelona, but has stated he is happy with his current situation at Anfield.
Suarez said; 'My head now is focused on the World Cup. Everyone knows there will be media speculation this summer as there always is but I have a contract with Liverpool.'
