Does any gooners out there realise the shirt number of the current squad and its similarity with the invincibles? I do found there some similarity in term of the number combination with the position of the players that wear it.First of all we look at defender. The similarity is at number 5,6,18,20 and 22. Current user for number 5 & 6 are Vermaelen & Koscielny and from the invicibles are Keown & Adams. Current user for number 18 & 20 are Squillaci & Djourou and from the invicibles are Cygan and Senderos. For 22 is worn by Clichy and he is the only survivor from the invicibles squad. Number 18 for both era are French and number 20 are Swiss. See any similarity here?
At the midfield, the similarity is at number 4, 7 & 8. Number 4 was worn by Vieira and currently worn by Cesc, a young boy from Barcelona who was recruited to be Vieira replacement. Number 7 was worn by Pires and currently worn by Rosicky, who was bought as a replacement for Pires when Pires opted to leave. Number 8 was worn by Ljungberg and now worn by Nasri, both can play at the left and right side of the midfield and also at the middle as an attacking midfielder. See any similarity here?
At attacking department we look at number 10, 11 and 14. Number 10 was worn by the Dutch Master Dennis Bergkamp and now wear by his apprentice, also Dutch, Robin Van Persie. Number 11 was worn by Wiltord and currently wear by Vela. Both not an automatic first 11 but when come as a sub, they are both effective. Number 14 was worn by arsenal leading goal scorer Thierry Henry. Now the guy who wear number 14 is Theo. Both are the fastest man on the team and in the league or even Europe. Correct me if I'm wrong about this fact. See any similarity here?
