I like my man Mangala wearing #5 - nothing wrong with that, for a central midfielder.

A right back with number 7😷 Don’t like that.
Should of been:
Biancone #5
Williams #2
Mangala #7
 

Otis Redding

Try A Little Tenderness
I like my man Mangala wearing #5 - nothing wrong with that, for a central midfielder.
It still sits a bit out of place with me Chris. Then again - and although I like to think I'm becoming more and more in tune with football's changing times - I'm stll an old codger traditionalist regarding shirt numbers and such like.

Goddammit, I‘m going to have to buy one of those ridiculous bus-seat shirts just to get MANGALA 5 on the back for my holidays, aren’t I?

I hate you sometimes Forest, I really do 😂

What would you give the three starting centre-halves in our formation?

Would have to be 456 if you want the wingbacks as 2 and 3, but then 7 and 11 look a bit funny.

On the basis that Williams wanted 7 and Johnson 11, I’d say 256, with LWB at 3, CM 68 and JLingz 10.

I always get a bit militant with squad numbers on Football Manager……..

It’s the old chestnut, isn’t it?

Do you go 4-5-6, and then 2-3 for the wing-backs? or is it something else?

or Instead, is it whatever the hell the player wants (so maybe that will be 4-19-26, for Forest‘s first choice back-three?)

What a lovely conundrum to have.

Not something, of course, no-marks like Sheff U and Uddersfeeled will need to worry about, this season.
