If we don't sign anyone else I would like the numbers to be as follows -

1 Gomes
2 Hutton
3 Bale
4 Huddlestone
5 Woodgate
6 King
7 Lennon
8 Modric
9 Berbatov
10 Keane
11 Giovani

Zokora and Gilberto will keep their numbers as they are part of Ramos' plans.
Modric wants 14, and Ledley King havent shown any interest in changing shirt number before.

I was a bit confused by Gilberto being given the no 7. I like the classic construction.

1 = GK
2 = RB
3 = LB
4 = CM
5 = CB
6 = CB
7 = RW
8 = CM
9 = ST
10 = ST
11 = LW

I know that 11 can also be given to a striker and there are all sorts of combinations, but that's the numbering I like. When I play FM, I give those numbers to my first choice team.

To be even more specific...

1 = GK
2 = RB
3 = LB
4 = DCM
5 = RCB
6 = LCB
7 = RW
8 = ACM
9 = ST (Goal scorer)
10 = ST (Creative)
11 = LW

I don't really associate the number 7 with a winger though. For some reason I see 7 as a wide midfielder like Beckham and 11 as a winger.

when I glanced at the title of this thread I could have sworn it said:

Dos Santos Gives a Shit!

:grin:
The real headline was slightly less compelling...

Modric will definately have number 14 (same as his idol Cruyff) and his number for Croatia. Im sure i read that in one of the BBC articles after we signed him??
