Yeh...I was just trying to find it on the twitter feed. I SWEAR I watched one earlier today, probably about midday UK time. I SWEAR he pulled on a number 21 shirt...but now I can't see that tweet? Maybe they took it down. He was up on the roof and it definitely showed him pulling on an "Afobe 21" shirt. Edit: Ok. I think it was a different edit of this one. Maybe I've gone mad or was dreaming but I'd swear to god I saw a version that showed the back of the shirt and it had "Afobe 21". Don't go getting that printed up just yet maybe...I'm not as generous as the club are when it comes to refunds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So either a) they pulled it because they thought to maybe wait before just chucking Pack's still warm shirt onto a brand new loanee's back, b) Afobe decided that actually he would rather have 20, 24, 26, 29, or one of the other numbers available, or c) someone's heading off on loan and their number has been freed up.* *I'm not sure if this is actually how numbers work when people get loaned out.

'Orns Posted August 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 21 is going to look funny on anyone but Packy now This whole thread brings up a good talking point. If you had to pick a squad number what would it be, and why (other than for old skool positional reasons)? I'd go for 39. Mine and my wife's birthdays added together = 39. My 3 daughters birthdays added together = 39. Letters in the 3 girls full names added together (surname not included) = 39. Age when daughter #3 was born, yep, you've guessed it.....39 Then the boy came along and ****** it all up. The kids birthdays now add up to 70, and I hate it And I never played DM, so I wouldn't feel.bad about it either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did wonder whether he might not be for form this weekend and he was waiting for Taylor, Watkins, Adelekan etc to get a L1 loan sorted If it's a season long loan then I don't see a problem with him slipping on #10 if Taylor moves, for example. 6 month loan and MT is back in January, that could be tricky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, in my dreams I'm a devastating box-to-box midfielder who slips balls through defences for fun, slaps in 15 25 yd screamers a season and runs back for at least ten world class sliding tackles a game.
