It's the same every season, I've never understood why clubs release their new shirts and don't release squad numbers at the same time. Surely they would make more money if the fans knew who was going to wear what squad number?

I'll give them until Monday, but I've never understood why clubs release new shirts and not squad numbers at the same time. The clubs would surely make more money that way?

To me the question is: which is worse, Cancelo 7 or Alexander-Arnold 66? Tbh I'd rather see TAA take 7 than stay 66...

Option number four; numbers 62, 78 and 84 being regular first team members. Throw 66 in the mix as well.

James Wilson has worn 19 and 29 for Man United and 9 for Aberdeen, and a bunch of other numbers (12, 14, 21, 28, 47, 49 and 50)

My local side in Norway, Moss FK. Sadly Dagfinn Enerly broke his neck a few years later during a match for Fredrikstad, and is now sitting in a wheel chair.

Quite common in the early days of squad numbering. Always liked the way numbers 1-11 at the start of the season (usually) reflected those closest to the starting 11.

Morecambe have changed squad numbers for 15 of their players, with Cole Stockton the only one keeping the same as last season. Surely some sort of record!

Which number, 1-11, are You (closest) to accepting in EVERY outfield position? For me it's number 5. I believe it works all over except for a RM for some reason.

Patrick Roberts given squad number 77 for Sunderland. I'm positive that the EFL won't allow that. At least I hope so!

Yes, it was. Seems rules aren't so strict if You're called Messi, Fabregas or Donnarumma. If Your name is Balotelli though...

Got a hold of the latest EFL squad lists. It's sent to every club secretary each week. I get a copy from time to time, but not nearly as osten as I'd like!

I like the way the football league bans numbers over 50 if not ALL lower are allocated. The same with National League over 40.

It was actually in a qualification match. The Asian Football Confederation uses squad numbers throughout each qualification. Oar was not the 121st player used by Australia, but opted for 11x11, when he in reality could have worn something like 40...

I know both Norway and France have worn squad numbers during at least one qualification peroid as well, Anelka wore 39 for France at one point, and Vidar Riseth I believe wore 40 something for Norway. Not sure if this was the case with Quaresma though...

Arsenal: Hillier 18-17, Dickov 24-23, Flatts 25-24, Marshall 27-25, Shaw 28-27, Hughes 29-28, Clarke 30-29 for Arsenal before the 95/96 season... Absolutely no reason to do these changes.

I'd like to see him take 33. Perfect for a youngster, and a paying tribute to his father. Agree that 3 should be reserved for a future Maldini, albeit a defender!

In theory, could Arsenal sign someone on 31st of August, have him registered to play in the Europa League but not in the PL seeing as registration deadline for the competitions differ?

So many from the early days of squad numbers, when 1-11 was where You wanted to be. Bould 12-5 with Linighan going the other way. Colgan moving 30-23-30-23-31, being 4th, 3rd, 4th, 3rd and 5th choice GK in the process.

Who will be first to release squad numbers for the coming season? Leyton Orient were first last year, releasing them on June 21.

Tbh I've got less problems with these seeing as it's academy than I do with TAA, Foden, Garcia, etc who are first team but stick to academy numbers.

No idea, although I'm fine with some gaps, ie towards the end of the season I'd rather see 17 year olds with 48 & 50 rather than 3 & 10.

Great read this piece!
Scotland won't be at the World Cup, sadly - here's hoping that when they next appear they will be as imaginative with their numbers as they were in 1990

Yes! Although about 65 years earlier than I would have guessed! Then my follow up question: when, in the squad numbers era, did it happen first? 😉

The other six were Brentford, Bury, Charlton, Lincoln, Luton and Middlesbrough. Brentford and Sunderland also wore squad numbers in 94/95.

I noticed that as well, and the only thing I can come up with is that they had an extra gk shirt with no name and number 16 on, printed his name on it, but then the governing body said he couldn't play with another number than what he was registered with.

He wore number 12 in Europe as squads had to be numbered 1-25 back then. Still wore 27 in the league.

So Saka will wear 7 next season, fair play to him! Guess this means Mkhitaryan will leave. Also Saliba given number 4, not a fan of a CB wearing 4, at Arsenal 4 used to be a CM, with 5 and 6 CB. Elneny moved to 25, not sure we'll see him in an Arsenal shirt again though...

St. Pat's actually got a lower average squad number at 8,73. Shamrock 9,45. Coming as close as possible to 6 should be the goal.

I believe Matt Dickens was initially given number 13, even listed in the matchday programme away at Chelsea. Frank Talia was 13 for the next match, so I'm not sure when the change happened. Dickens would head out on loan to Lincoln City, but not until November.

Can anyone help with full squad numbers lists for Dagenham and Redbridge, Woking, Banbury United, Chippenham Town, Oxford City, Welling United and/or Weymouth, please? Should hopefully be listed on the back of a programme...

Paul Tisdale has kept his favoured number 17 like he did at Exeter. My suspicion confirmed!

Yes it is! Thomas Hill had 99 for Liverpool last season, but didn't make the squad for the PL. Joshua McNamara is currently 98 at Man City, but is yet to feature.

Not sure, I think the shirt number might have decided the handle, not the other way round. He always played with 4 at Brann before joining Southampton.
