Symbolic Squad Numbers?

[MikeyM]

Di Stefanos number was 11 and 23 in Real Madrid.

Oh really, thought I'd read it was 5 when Zidane signed. I stand corrected then.

For Argentina it's the most common like this.

1- GK
2- RCB
3- LWB
4- RWB
5- CM
6- LCB
7- RS
8- RM
9- LS
10- CAM
11- LM

------1
---2-----6
-4----------3
------5
---8-----11
------10
----7----9

Some change 7 for 11.

didn't Ardilles use nº1 for the national team? in world cup 82 i think... may be wrong, but i'm pretty certain

I prefer... well... 20!

Of course my team only has shirts numbered 1-16 (we're only allowed to have five players on the bench), but when I get to choose I always go for 20.

 

[Brondbyfan]

4 has always been my lucky number so I wear that despite playing right midfield.

 

[Bobby]

What about Darren Huckerby?

 

[ShearerM4]

4 has always been my lucky number so I wear that despite playing right midfield.

good man

 

[Brondbyfan]

Then sometimes you get weird ones:

By the way, can anyone explain to me why 22 is a popular number for keepers?

Ferenc Puskas had 10, but I don't know who historic player who had 5.
I heard from another forum that he ranked him self as the 5th best player ever.
1. Maradona
2. Pele
3. Di Stefano
4. Cruyff
5. Zidane
But I don't know if thats the reason.

Franz "The Kaiser" Beckenbauer had the 5 playing libero.

zamorano wore 18 because he wanted 9, but it was taken by ronaldo (at inter)

1+8=9
