And Bassong is 30
Interesting - the numbers must have some reflection in status but not always - Redmond for instance is 22, Beckham was always 23 so there's no inference to leaving there, similarly with the Bennetts at 17 for Elliott and 24 for Ryan.
One interesting one is Josh Murphy at 21 and Loza at 16. LOza over Josh?.
So the preferred run on team at this moment, in no particular order of field placings but based on the shirt numbers, would looks like
Ruddy, Whittaker, New centre back, Johnson, Martin, Turner, Grabban, Howson, Lafferty, Fer and Hooper
Subs Pilks, Bunn, Hools, Loza, Bennett, Garrido, Becchio
Wont happen - there's Redmond and Olsson for starters, then Josh, and possibly Bass and Tettey to fit in.
Wondering if the lower numbers, save the young uns, are likeley exports or poaching transfers expected or club want outs.
Conspiracy theories abound :grin:
