alternating between heat press and embroidery seems a bit "redundant". further, i have came across PI jerseys on the same season with different method of affixing the club crest on the jerseys.
just for the Arsenal 2012/2014 home jersey, i've seen 2 different PI version, one with total heat press and one with embroidery, like the replica version.
It's not a matter of redundant or what...
From what I heard.. United decided that the club crest this time will be embroidered for their PI shirts because the PU printed club crest can be imitated easily. For the fake ones, the embroidered club crest is very hard to imitate.. you can almost get an identical design but it's almost not identical.. If it was PU material.. you can just simply scan it and print it easily with sharp and precise detail.
Nike like adidas and puma, have outsourced their production to many countries with 'cheaper' labour cost. The cost of globalization.. no longer you would see nike or adidas kits that are Made in UK or England nowadays.. There are kits that are Made in Bangladesh... Nike training kits and player shorts (PI or replica) are always Made in Thailand. So one of the keys to know if a jersey is authentic or not is to know in which the country made the replica/PI kits.. There are many tricks and skills but I don't want to discuss this openly in the public because of many people that might misuse it.

oh! a HK seller. im abit skeptical for this shirt. last season i almost bought ManUtd 12/13 PI with HK ebayer claims he got it from kitmen in OT. but after did some checking it turned out fake & selling at ridiculous price (RM2K++) when i could get a fake PI for just RM60. Im not saying this is the same seller but just careful whean dealing with these kind seller... selling fake stuff at super high price.
ok some sharing... u judge urself... JERSEYMAN... ive referred this issue to u, remember?
just observe the background ok... same seller or what?
