City squad numbers update

Postby JamieMCFC » Tue Jul 15, 2014 5:33 pm

Manchester City have announced a few changes to their squad numbers for the coming season.

Summer signings Willy Caballero, Fernando, and Bacary Sagna have all been allocated numbers, taking 13, 6, and 3 respectively.

Caballero takes the shirt worn by Aleks Kolarov last season; the Serb has switched to take the No.11 jersey.

And Karim Rekik has been given the 19 shirt, suggesting he will be included in first-team plans this season after a year in the Eredivisie with PSV.

The changes come in time for this Thursday, when the new kit will be on sale for the first time in the CityStore.

Unfortunately, the article on the OS also includes the following line -

Scott Sinclair may snatch up the vacant no.12

Kolarov changing to number 11........change of position, are we going to see him utilised as a winger more often that not then?

"If we think we can fix the problem by buying expensive players - We'll become City"
"If we remember the good times to entertain us during the bad times - We'll become Liverpool"

So, keep calm and do it the United way

"We invest in young players, That is what we are good at — we’re not like other clubs who can spend fortunes on proven goods. We know that Manchester City are going to pay stupid money, pay silly salaries and all that. We can’t do anything about it. We concentrate on what we can do to try to bring players in for the right reasons. We invest in those who will be with the club for a long time, who will create the character of the club, who will create excitement for our fans. We are very proud of that and we are going to continue that way" - Alex Ferguson 14th May 2012

He wears 11 for his country too, might just be a preference. It goes to show he doesnt see himself as a defender anyway!

If Sinclair is getting a number, then we can't judge much from this allocation.
