The only patterns we have ever noticed on soccer jersies are stripes. They are not nearly as common as solid color jersies. This is probably be because the field referees wear black and white stripped jersies. This is a convention followed by soccer associations around the world. Thus team jersies that were striped might look too much like the referees. I'm not sure if there are any regulations on this among soccer associations. Goalies sometimes also choose stripes as they wear uniforms to diferentiate themselves from the rest of the team..
