Quite a few up for grabs.

1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 11 and of course the prized nos. 73 and 98 shirts.

Actually, thinking about it, someone ought to be given the 89 shirt.
 



I'm a bit OCD when it comes to squad numbers. It upset me when Brayford was given the no.5 shirt and then pleased when Wilder reverted him to the No.2 shirt. I did however wonder about McNulty being given 7 and Scougs 8 though (It pained me when Beattie was assigned No.6!).

It would seem that CW is of a similar mentality, however I wonder whether the manager chooses or do the players get a say in which number they are assigned. I presume some players will request a certain number and in other cases, they couldn't care less and are assigned one by the manager.

I can't see any of the current squad changing their squad number, apart from Carruthers and possibly Moore, so I think Coutts will retain the No.15 shirt. I think Carruthers would get 7 or 8.
 
I'm sure someone on here will have a full list of all the season by season Blades squad lists since they became assigned squad numbers.
When was that by the way?
I was thinking it was either 98/99 or 99/00.

I'm a bit OCD when it comes to squad numbers

Me too. For me the only permissible variations is that 4 can be the holding midfielder and 6 the centre-back, or vice versa. At a pinch, 8 can be the second striker and 10 a midfielder, provided the owner of that shirt is a god-like presence a la TC. 11 should always play down the left, 7 down the right. No 5 should be the biggest and ugliest player on the pitch.

3-5-2, 4-2-3-1 or any of this other modern football fancy-dan nonsense totally fucks this up, of course.

Why not just pick 4 then?
