Picture: Ashley Young to wear no.18 jersey at ManUtd?
June 28, 2011
Squad numbers 1, 2, 4 & 18 are currently unoccupied at ManUtd, it is likely that Phil Jones will get no.2 or no.4, while Ashley Young will wear the no.18 shirt, previously used by club legend Paul Scholes.



Yes am really happy about young putting is leg in our legendary paul scholes,we all no what he is capable of and i believe he will surely makes his make mark in united team
Oh! That is wonderful. For given no 18 to Young, the battle line is now drawn.
i am so superise seen young wearing man utd no 18 that means 17 and 18 we fight for place at man united which is nani and young.
i just like manutd, am real fan of manutd
I’m so excited to sign young because is the best player.
I think, he will assist Manchester united to win many games away compare to last season.
let furgie put more on Sanchez we are missing out.
man utd is missing on Sanchez. style up fagie
Young you are welcome but nani is more ready to fight for man utd but let see youn in action 18 jessy
i love man united it is the best club ever in history of football and my dream is to play for man united.
I actually think Young should have been giving number 17 and then Nani will have to bounce the number 7 jersey from Michael Owen and Owen could wear another free number
The number 6 and 22 are now free.I think Nasri will be given either the number 4 or 6,simply because Young,a forward will look weird i those jerseys.I think it will be number 4 for nasri,because 6 would resemble a certain xavi in midfield(perhaps no?).
So Phil Jones will likely get the no 6.De Gea no 1 xD.
As for the no 7, i think SAF, by giving it to Owen, meant to take off unnecessary comparisons to ronaldo on the newcomers(valencia,nani and now young).
Other possibilities imo include vidic getting no6 as he is the captain now,leaving number 15 free for any of the newcomers.
Now the number 2,,,which of rafael or fabio will get that,hmm.Number 20 or 21 might be free then.
Just my opinion.
Da gea to wear 12 cos d no 1 jearsy is not cheap, vidic to wear 6, and smalling to wear 15 as long time replacement for ferdinard, young to wear 18, and jones to be given no 2
Fucking hell why doesnt fergie just let owens contract expire and give young 7 , anyways owen is an absolute waste and with rooney chicharito and the prem league goalscorer he wont play any matches , sometimes fergie does unexplainable stuff
anyokami , or young n 7 phil jones 6 rafael 2 vidic 15 n de gea n1
[...] numbers for the new season 2011/12. De Gea will wear the no.1 jersey, Phil Jones gets no.4, and as predicted by ManUtd24.com, Ashley Young will wear the no.18 [...]
let wesley be signed before thursday as i cant wait 2 see him play at theatre of dreams thanks fergie my old forgie
i love yeah
everyone who is writin on this page has not got a clue bout football .. half of the ppl moan about a number for god sake numbers dont win matches young isnt gunna be play better with the number 18 or 7 michael owen signed another contract which still makes him number 7 theres no swappin numbers if a player is still at the club look at rooney he had to wait for van nistelrooy to leave to get nyumber so everyne shut the fuck bitchn about a number
I love man utd so i woul’d like to see luca modric to came man utd because we misse great player that we never forget him paulo scholes and i consalt our manager sir alex fargusan to manage the numbers of player de gea n1 ,vidic n6 ,nani n7 ,A.YOUNG N17 so every time we are united and unite never going down bye bye bye
please fergie give no.7 to nani 17 to valentia and 8to cleverly
