Agreed. Numbers are largely irrelevant these days. 4 of our star midfielders at 16, 17, 20 and 47. The keeper at 31, one of the CBs at 14. The days of 1-11 (what us FOCs grew up with) are long since gone. It seems that some players request a number for personal reasons. Didn't Phil pick 47 for family reasons. And I'm guessing that Eddy might be in a similar position. And I suppose marketing might play a part. The Nordic Manshield was always going to get the 9 shirt, once Gabby's move to Arsenal was confirmed.Does it honestly matter?
No he just wanted the number and it was free.Interesting cancello been given number 7 normally a wingers number .cud we see him used left side of mid in some games?
Not for long…I can’t believe we have full backs wearing 7 & 11
Could be another option for right wing maybe. He certainly wouldn’t be out of place.I can’t believe we have full backs wearing 7 & 11
