These are just off wiki, I think we maybe need to buy a team before they're finalised... 1 GK Allan McGregor 2 DF Moses Odubajo 4 DF Alex Bruce 6 DF Curtis Davies 7 MF David Meyler (vice-captain) 8 MF Tom Huddlestone 9 FW Abel Hernández 10 MF Robert Snodgrass 11 MF Sam Clucas 12 DF Harry Maguire 14 MF Jake Livermore 15 MF Shaun Maloney 16 GK Eldin Jakupović 21 DF Michael Dawson (captain) 25 FW Adama Diomandé 26 DF Andrew Robertson 27 MF Ahmed Elmohamady 30 GK Dušan Kuciak 31 DF Brian Lenihan 32 FW Greg Luer 33 DF Josh Tymon
It could be interesting if someone goes to the new owners and suggest we fancy buying numbers 3, 5, 13, 17, 18, 19, 20, 23... For a manager, we could end up getting the Special Szechuan.
Robertson has already confirmed he'll be wearing number 3 this season. I wouldn't go by Wikipedia, it still lists Jahraldo-Martin as our player.
Cheers OLM. I had seen these but was sure that Andy Robertson said he'd be wearing 3 this season and so thought they might be wrong or just a guess!
Diomande has worn #20 all pre-season so I imagine he'll have that as his new squad number, much like Robertson has changed to #3. Dawson probably would have switched to #5 at some point before he got injured but I reckon that will go to any new centre-back we sign. #17, #18 and #19 will be reserved for new signings, if we make any.

I don't think squad numbers have as much importance nowadays. If Dawson wanted it, Harry would have had a different number.
No doubt, but I do think it does show that the club has a decent opinion of him. It's not like Luer has been given the number 9, or mannion number 1. I wonder if we'll go 3 at the back when Dawson is back or push Maguire to the bench.
