Barry Ferguson's Hat Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Missing penalties is very common abroad. Teams would far rather score through more honourable means than just toeing a ball into the onion-bag from 10.973 meters. If anything it shows the character of the lad. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sorry, but 6, 8 and 10 is canon. PS: 5 is a left back and 3 is a centre back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G51 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 5 is a left back for the Dutch though, and I’m a bit exotic like that. Way off topic now, but I had never heard about the numbering arrangement we had for Euro 92. The beginning of Scottish footballs decline, no doubt. https://www.squadnumbers.com/2018/06/14/scotland-cap-it-all-off/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Kebab Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Nah mate, 3 has always been LB since the dawn of time. 2 is RB.^^^very much thisIt comes from the 235 formations from back in the day!!! 1. Goalkeeper 2. Right Back, 3. Left Back 4. Right Half, 5. Centre Half, 6. Left Half7. Right Wing, 8. Inside Right 9. Centre Forward, 10. Inside Left, 11. Left Wing1, 2, 3, 5 and 9 are the universally agreed numbers for the position that still go by the same name, arguably 7 and 11 still get used for wingers, the rest are just for hipsters!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
