ASTON VILLA's new home kit might look slick, but it also looks fairly slippery.

On Thursday, Unai Emery's side were in action against Legia Warsaw in the Europa League.

Newcastle United also have their kits manufactured by the Manchester based company.

While in Scotland, Rangers are also kitted out by Castore.

However, both those kits don't appear to have the same problem as the Villa one.
