95% of the numbers there are the same as last season, so no real surprises. The 9 was Cisse's. But its a good sign that it is free, although I doubt for Hooper - as he seems to like 88 going by his celtic number! I expect a few to go out of that list though.
I dont think English numbers go over 49 hence why Hooper is going for 9. I think he only took 88 because 9 was taken at celtic.
Ive been saying that for years, Rhodes too. We need a big man because thats how Harry plays in a 442 but Zamora is the ultimate donkey.
True a big guy would be ideal alongside Hooper/Remy. But I guess that would mean we wouldnt get Austin. Would like to sign him! How about a 4-3-3! Hooper, Austin, Remy as the front three.
We're getting Austin Powers? We're saving 666 for Diouf. "Good sort, leader on the pitch, proven at this level"
Harold wouldn't know what 4-3-3 was if it jumped up and head butted him!!!!!!! Looks like we are stuck with the out dated, out moded, pre-historic 4-4-2.....Oh for a young, far sighted, talented manager......
I don't care what shirt number he wears as long as he is wearing OUR shirt. The shirt number is irrelevant.
So thats why hes about as immobile as a wardrobe. I think theres obvious exceptions if all the numbers are already taken, maybe that was the case. Does anyone routinely wear a number over 50?
I think you have to give one in order to be able to play them, so we couldnt play him in an emergency if we didnt give him a number.
But we have sold him...he has gone two days ago...signed a contract in Turkey, He ain't ours...emergency or not , we cannot play him ...Don't tell me on top of everything else that is going T@@@ up too
Does anyone know if Remy has actually kicked a ball in pre-season or are we going to be playing "rush" striker against Wednesday in a 4-6-0 formation?
Nope, Remy hasnt played a single minute yet. The club said he was going to Austria (he was there) to play, but didnt.
