Squad numbers revealed..Thread JULY 2010

[Morris]

Hull: Myhill, Ricketts, Brown, Turner, Dawson, Garcia, Ashbee, Hughes, Barmby, Campbell, Windass. Subs: Duke, Doyle, Folan,
Marney, Fagan.

Would all be good additions. Certainly better additions to those we have currently made.

giving our 'worth a gamble' striker leon clarke number 8 also tells me he is seen as a front runner for our strikeforce.. i at best expected him to be backup to helguson/agyemang.

This is the Hull team that went up.

Hull: Myhill, Ricketts, Brown, Turner, Dawson, Garcia, Ashbee, Hughes, Barmby, Campbell, Windass. Subs: Duke, Doyle, Folan,
Marney, Fagan.

I would take 5-6 from that lot.

Which players and who are they better than in our squad?

[Morris]

So its a good squad capable of achieving our aim of promotion then?

Dazzer your still online mate do you want to answer my question?

I just said who on my last post, page 2.

Numbers mean nothing. As I've already said in this thread Gallas wore 10 for Arsenal but it didn't mean he was going to play up front. Bendtner wears 52 but he'll probably play more than Nasri or Rosicky who wear 7 and 8.

To be fair, the squad at the moment doesn't look great, but if we can add Orr, McAnuff and a striker or two it'll look a great deal better. At the end of the day footy's played on grass not paper

Im glad you bolded the word IF, saved me doing it.

Orr looks certain to be fair but a few signings would make a big difference to the mood and vibe on here imo.

Here you go SirPie.

Keep using very rare situations as your spin mate, but your fooling no-one.

Spin? Who am I spinning for. I don't work for the club.

So because Anelka wears 39 we should expect to see him play for Chelsea this season? Or the fact that Cavalieri has been given the number 1 shirt should we expect to see Reina on the bench?

[Morris]

Difference is mate Henry was given 14 when he was a young player and kept it on for sentimental reasons. Anelka got 39 as 7,8,9,10 were taken. We had 7 and 8 available and chose to give Clarke 8 when he could have had 20something and the number 8 saved for a good player.

Here you go SirPie.

So you think Myhill is better than Kenny? Fagan is better than who? 11 goals in 93 Championship matches is worse than nearly all of our strikers. Garcia? Better than who? Yes he is better than some of our subs but he's no better than Buzsaky or Mackie who'll actually start for us.

Yes I think Myhill is a very good keeper. Better than Cerny and Kenny. He proved that last season in the Prem with some outstanding performances. Fagan would be a good signing to play wide right, he isn't a striker. I can't tell you who he is better than because we currently have no right winger. Same as Garcia who is a very good creative midfielder, better than Hogan that's for sure.
