  • I invest far more time than I should in sorting out my squad numbers in FM

    Don't play the game anymore but remember when squad numbers were first introduced during my school days. Was so excited just to allocate a few numbers!
  • Last year it was like the night before the first game. And Hanlan didn't get one and then was on the bench. Apparently another "protest" statement by Slade. Don't miss him.

    Reckon Kashi will be No.2... Crofts wont be No.8 which'll be left open for when Reeves signs in 2022
  • Watt has used #32 on twitter so I'm guessing he will be 32

    Watt has used #32 on twitter so I'm guessing he will be 32

    His username has 7 in it but you're right, he did hashtag 32 this afternoon so maybe he's getting the number back. ;-)

    edited (Watt 7 to 32, Marshall 17 to 7):

    I do the same in FIFA

    Surely Pearce will get 6 ahead of Nobby

    Aueely Pearce will get 6 ahead of Nobby

    I believe that Pearce likes the number 16 and has worn it at most clubs he has been at. (Maybe not, I checked and see he has normally been 5 but also 6. So maybe that'll be number 6)

    Can see one of Kashi or Forster-Caskey being number 8, although Kashi will probably be 25. Watt will almost certainly go back to his 32. Marshall definitely number 7 with Holmes 11. If Page is still number 2, I'll have a mini freak out because I'm funny like that, a left back just can't be number 2 in my eyes, doesn't sit right with me.

    See, if I was manager bullshit like Page being number 2 just wouldn't fly. I'm having none of that. If 3's taken he can have 16, 21, 33 or he can do one.
    Nothing better to do at 3pm on a Saturday
    My guess:
    1 Amos
    2 Page
    3 DaSilva
    4 JJ
    5 Bauer
    6 Pearce
    7 Fosu
    8 Crofts
    9 Magennis
    10 Reeves/left open
    11 Holmes
    12 Clarke
    13 Phillips
    14 Forster-Caskey
    15 Konsa
    16 Sarr
    17 Marshall
    18 KAG
    19 Aribo
    20 Solly
    21 Dijksteel
    22 Barnes
    23 Hacket-Fairchild
    24 Charles-Cook
    25 Kashi
    26 Lennon
    27 Lapslie
    28 Hanlan
    29 Umerah
    30 Novak
    31 Maynard-Brewer
    32 Watt

    Pretty good guess @SDAddick although it'll be fantastic if we did have two Kashi's, we really would dominate midfield without trouble... :wink:

    Also believe that number 10 will be Clarke. There will also be more left open for new players, ones like Hackett-Fairchild will be in the 30's I would imagine.
    Just love him so much I had to include him twice

    Lewis Page's morale just went from "good" to "very poor".
    It'll be 'abysmal' by the time I've left him out of the Champions League squad and tried to force him to sack his agent

  • Might follow the Karl Robinson number system that we've used in every friendly.

    1 Amos
    2 Solly 4 Konsa/Bauer 5 Pearce 3 Dasilva
    6 Kashi 8 JFC
    7 Marshall/Fosu 10 Clarke (Reeves?) 11 Holmes
    9 Magennis

    Not sure who 2 will be as I'm sure Solly will keep 20.
  • I invest far more time than I should in sorting out my squad numbers in FM

    It really annoys me when 1st year youth players want numbers 1-11 as there preference.
    Who do they think they are? What happened to earning your number?
    Youngsters these days have too much too young.
    I agree completely. If they're a decent youngster I'll give them a higher equivalent of their number but if they're some space-filling no-mark they can have 52 and like it.

    One of my pet peeves in FM is when you've built a legacy at a club, decide to move on to spice things up, come up against your old team again and find that the new manager has given the star striker number 6, the reserve keeper is now 1 because it's his favourite, the left back is 8 and the right winger is 13. Breaks my heart

    I just want to say I hadn't seen these tweets when I put Watt as 32.

    Also, think he's a top guy if he gets that fan a new shirt.
    I haven't bought a new shirt but I'm going to text watt the same thing to see if I get one for free

    What is the highest squad number we've ever had? Pretty sure we've had a 40 something before

    Tex 50 last season?

  • AK-47

    Behind the times. AK-74.
  • Am sure 50 (Tex) is the highest.
