I thought Whickham would get 9, but getting 10 is, in my eyes, a clear indication he will play.

Would have liked Sess to get 10, i heard Gyan has been wearing 9 pre-season, isn't 3 his lucky number?

Maybe they are keeping the 9 for Campbell, as a show of confidence as he edges his way back?

Wish they'd swap Catts & Turner, i just like a holding mid in 4 and a CB in 6, i know it has no influence whatsoever on performance like.
 
I'm not entirely sure that squad numbers actually mean anything these days, with the rotation policies adopted by one and all.

Gyan is 33 but will play every game he is fit.
 
Thought Gyan would have wanted 3 as it's his lucky number apparently. not sure squad numbers mean much now in the good old days it was 1 to 11 on the pitch much easier for shirt buying purposes as well.
 
Tounkara has a squad number! So will we be seeing playing a part this season? It will be interesting as we'll have three big lads up front albeit three young unproven big lads.

I reckon Tounkara will be used as Nobel was, stick him on in the last 15-20 mins if we're doing well.
