Sky Sports’ new lineup graphics have made a very big impression as the new Premier League season begins

Premier League football has returned. Rejoice.

The first game of the 2017/18 campaign saw Arsenal welcome Leicester City to the Emirates Stadium in a game shown exclusively on Sky Sports 1 (or whatever it's known as these days). With seconds remaining before the big kick off, Martin Tyler ran through the team line-ups. Instantly, viewers noticed a change to Sky's line-up graphic, which now appeared to show each and every player taking part in the game posing as if featured in Smash Hits magazine. https://twitter.com/SmnLlyd5/status/896080965692305408 Inevitably, the new look graphics provoked quite a reaction. As the selection of tweets below highlights, the reaction was quite a mixed one. Some described them as 'fantastic'; others as 'creepy as fuck'. https://twitter.com/77fitzy/status/896080642869403649 https://twitter.com/ShaneStewart7/status/896080283652431872 https://twitter.com/AdamJohnston10/status/896079963886989316 https://twitter.com/jaketurbett/status/896079902411063296 https://twitter.com/ShaneSaunders88/status/896079846815563776 https://twitter.com/flicksandtricks/status/896080133160747012 https://twitter.com/MattGraham90/status/896079821557477377
