1 - Guzan

2 - Richards

3 - Richardson

4 - Westwood

5 - Okore

6 - Clark

7 - Bacuna

8 - Delph

9 - Benteke

10 - Grealish 

11 - Agbonlahor

 

Then base the rest on the last number/position e.g.

 

13 Given

12 Hutton 15 Senderos 16 Baker 23 Cissokho

17 N'Zogbia 18 Gardner 14 Sanchez 21 Sinclair

20 Gil

19 Kozak

So many players don't usually change number after having the same for so many years and if Richardson is our first choice LB I will cry.

I don't think there will be a dramatic change in squad numbers. Everyone to keep their squad numbers I would say, then Richards given 4, Gueye hopefully given 8, I'd like Grealish to get 10 but just as happy for him to just get a lower number and someone like Praet who already wears the number being given to him here. If he were ever to sign for us.

Sinclair #9 doesn't sit right with me, nor Baker #2

 

Rather Richards swaps with Baker, I realise these numbers aren't official yet and just last seasons, but its not likely to change

I'd be surprised if Grealish kept the number 40. I expect him to move up, though I'm not sure if I'd like him to have the number 10 just yet. He still has a lot to prove.

 

Gueye could be interesting. I think he was number 5 for Lille and has played in the no. 17 shirt for Senegal. I assume Okore will keep no. 5 but I think Herd was our last no. 17, has he been moved on? There's always no. 8 available I suppose.

When do we submit the numbers? Gueye will certainly get 8 and should we sign them I think Amavi will get 3 and Praet 10.

In many European countries I think the numbers 2 and 3 are given to CBs but yeah it is a bit weird here.

I don't think he'll change any of the numbers when players are still here so my guess is the new players will all take departed players numbers. At a guess I think Gueye will get 8, Richards 4, Bunn 31 & if Amavi signs he'll have 19 as its his current squad number.

I think out of current players only Grealish will get a new number as I think Tim will give him the 10 shirt now it's free.

I agree with what others have said though, Sinclair having 9 and Baker having 2 doesn't sit right with me and I hope the numbers get shifted around, but I don't think they will

When are the squad numbers announced? Noticed Amavi has been wearing number 3 and Bennett is 27 on his instagram, which would take Kozak's number. Big reshuffle about to happen?

Less than a week until season starts, is this the latest we've ever left squad numbers?

 

Seems odd as surely they want to cash in on people wanting their favourite players names and numbers to go on the back of the new shirts theyve just bought..

Must be more incoming that are capable of taking the higher squad numbers. 10 seems to be still up for grabs, 8 will probably be taken by Gueye, with Amavi taking 3 from Bennett. Baker, Bacuna and Gabby should relinquish their high squad numbers :P Don't really agree with Richards having the no. 4 either, he should move to RB and take the no. 2.
