Surely, the shirt would have been used to explain Sancho's struggles...
(he was meant to carry it, if you have forgotten).

Erm.. The Number 7 shirt..

- Start date
Give it Giggseh
My guess is Ole promised it to Sancho. I think it will go to Antony at start of next season.
Antony played as no. 11 at Ajax so he'd probably rather wait for that one. We know Sancho wanted the 7 though, like Fernandes wanted the 8.
Bit weird that we could end up having a number 11 as right wing and 7 on left wing when them numbers are normally associated with the opposite wings.
Yeah but wingers are inverted now though so theres a certain logic to it.
Just bin it.
I had to look that up as I thought he got 9 or 10 goals but you're right. His first season was pretty good.
This shirt is cursed ever since Ronaldo wore it the first time. Now even he can't wear it without it blowing up in his face. Retire this thing and be done with it.
So long as it's not given to Sancho. Give it to Antony or Garnacho or just retire it.
Hang it up in the dressing room and challenge the players to earn it.
Give it to anyone who cares about the shirt
Any player who wants it must earn it by being the best performing player in 3 seasons straight. And that shirt will come with a double in salary, no matter how much you are earning already.
By those criteria, De Gea would be wearing the shirt right now.Any player who wants it must earn it by being the best performing player in 3 seasons straight. And that shirt will come with a double in salary, no matter how much you are earning already.
Don’t rush in just handing it out. It might not even be given to a player we already have. I reckon if Ronaldo goes then we’re going to sign a big name superstar next season.
Very typical of us to swoop in and "rescue" Eden Hazard from Real Madrid.

I’m thinking more of an mbappe type. I can actually see that happening if we was really interested in him and he fancied a move to the prem… could finally settle the debate Mbappe vs Haaland in the best league in the world.Ironically Ronaldo was our player of the season last season before the disaster struck!
Even the suggestion of wearing it now turns the player into a cu^t
Antony could handle it, I think, and RW is traditional for no7.
Antony or Garnacho, but I think it’ll be a couple of years before anyone gets it
No rush. Use it as a tactic to motivate our players instead:

Nah. Give it to Donny. He cant get any worse.
Does ETH give much of a shit about who wears no7? It would be a bit unlike him if he did.
Do players even care that much these days? Some do, I suppose.
It would be great to bring in an amazing striker “worthy” of no7 but at that point I wouldn’t care what number he actually wore.

So, you suggest that Ronaldo made that interview because of his shirt?
Sancho has a lot to do in a United shirt to justify it. Same for Garnacho... he looks the part but needs time.
Garnacho wore the 11 in youth so maybe keep Antony 21, Garnacho 11, Sancho 7?
