[Jimmy]

These are the official numbers for Inter's squad:

 1 TOLDO Francesco 
 2 CORDOBA Ivan Ramiro 
 3 BURDISSO Nicolas 
 4 ZANETTI Javier 
 5 STANKOVIC Dejan 
 6 MAXWELL 
 7 FIGO Luis 
 8 IBRAHIMOVIC Zlatan 
 9 CRUZ Julio Ricardo 
10 ADRIANO 
11 GROSSO Fabio 
12 JULIO CESAR 
13 MAICON Douglas 
14 VIEIRA Patrick 
15 DACOURT Olivier 
18 CRESPO Hernan 
19 CAMBIASSO Esteban 
20 RECOBA Alvaro 
21 SOLARI Santiago 
22 ORLANDONI Paolo 
23 MATERAZZI Marco
25 SAMUEL Walter 
31 CESAR 
77 ANDREOLLI Marco
79 CARINI Fabian
99 CHOUTOS Lampros

I like to do this every year, since I have a fetisch for player numbers. We have already been given some indications this pre-season on what numbers players will wear. This is my predicted list:

1. Francesco Toldo
2. Ivan Cordoba
3. Nicolas Burdisso
4. Javier Zanetti
5. Dejan Stankovic
6. Walter Samuel
7. Luis Figo
8. David Pizarro
9. Julio Cruz
10. Adriano
11. Cesar
12. Julio Cesar
13. Maicon
14. Patrick Vieira
15. Olivier Dacourt
16. Maxwell
17. Fabio Grosso
18. Marco Andreolli
19. Esteban Cambiasso
20. Alvaro Recoba
21. Santiago Solari
22. Paolo Orlandoni
23. Marco Materazzi
24.
25.
26.
27.
28.
29.
30. Obafemi Martins

Grosso's number is real perplexing. I would have liked him to have 11 as in Palermo, but Mancini has handed that to Cesar ( ). Then we have number three- his Italian number. He may receive that number, I guess since Burdisso isn't that high in the hierarchy.
Vieira's number will also be interesting. We know for sure that Dacourt has 15, Maicon 13 and Samuel 6 at least.

[Forza ragazzi]

I always hand Grosso the no 27 jersey when having him in my team at Football Manager

I'm sure I can agree with you. Anyhow, I wonder what number will be given to the striker that's coming. Should I dare to guess, I think 25 will be hot.

[darsez]

Good. I have a number-fetish too

I think Fautario is wearing no. 25 in the Porto match, but I'm sure it will be given to a more important player if needed.

If we are getting a new striker, how about giving him no. 32

[Wallace]

Toni suits 32, don't you think?

If I was Mancini, I would give 11 back to Stankovic (his first year in inter), 5 to Samuel, and 6 to Grosso.

Cesar can have .

[micah ken]

no.3 should be Grosso... or 13 to Grosso... easily exchange w/ burdisso
18 not to Andreolli but suite 4 Maxwell. maybe Andreolli better use number 25/16.. but in pre-season 14 to Choutos.. 18 to Andreolli.. 6 to Samuel.. i'm not sure about that number to be official... and i'll give 17 to Maicon... dunno yet but that's my opinion so confuse bcoz Inter hv a big2 squad this year LoL ^^ but actually number 11 is suitable 4 Solari!!! because he says to Moratti he didn't wanted number 21 for him.. Cesar??? pls sell him. no.32 for Martins.

[1919]

thank god cesar does nt have 31 any more.

[Forza ragazzi]

no.3 should be Grosso... or 13 to Grosso... easily exchange w/ burdisso
18 not to Andreolli but suite 4 Maxwell. maybe Andreolli better use number 25/16.. but in pre-season 14 to Choutos.. 18 to Andreolli.. 6 to Samuel.. i'm not sure about that number to be official... and i'll give 17 to Maicon... dunno yet but that's my opinion so confuse bcoz Inter hv a big2 squad this year LoL ^^ but actually number 11 is suitable 4 Solari!!! because he says to Moratti he didn't wanted number 21 for him.. Cesar??? pls sell him. no.32 for Martins.

Has Solari officially requested a new number? He's always had 21, as long as I can remember.

[Mustafa]

I think they will keep No.11 for future striker. Caesar will not have this number

I think Samuel will take his No.6. Vieira 14, or maybe if we sell Pizzaro then No.8

Grosso mostly will take No.3, its his lucky one. Then Burdisso will take something, really I don't care about his number

Maxwell No.13, Dacourt No.15, Maicon No.18.

I think final list will be submitted after few weeks. by the way it will first appera in Italian Inter.it version, as it was before

[BFC82]

Just letting ya know that Durai copied and pasted Jimmy's prediction on XT and gave no credit to him. Ban the mutha!!

[Hasan]

10 to Stankovic, Adriano no=9.

[Mustafa]

10 to Stankovic, Adriano no=9.

Adriano look good with 10, Stankovic No. 11 or 18

[Pajo]

Adri have always been 10, leave it that way. As for Deki, number 8 will be great. And the 5 goes to Samuel, 6 to Grosso. 18 to David Pizarro if we don't sell him. Andreolli could be given 25 or something. Maxwell should be given 24. The others are OK.

[NimAraya]

For God sake, just sell that fuucking Cesarstein!!!!! He makes me fuucking sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man, this squad is great. Just clean up these worms from the team!

[Mustafa]

Yes we need to sell both Cesars

[Gaetan]

We've done a decent job adressing the dead weight already on the squad. Mancio has gotten rid of a few of his ex-boyfriends. I can't complain too much.

Oh, and 14 and Vieira do not go too well IMO.

[Mustafa]

Oh, and 14 and Vieira do not go too well IMO.

But he cannot take No.4, can he? I think he can take 8 if not 14

[Opeum]

actually, i prefer if adriano get the no.9......10 brings too much responsibilities.. better 9, just go for goal.

[Frisko]

I bet Crespo will get 18, I don't see what other number he could go with. Andreolli shouldn't mind

[K.I.]

I would like to see crespo get 9,but i think taking it from cruz wouldnt be fair and i also like cruz so i would like to see him take 11 or 9 if cruz wont mine and cruz can take 11,cesar can take his 31 again or a 33 would be good.

[Mustafa]

Crespo will probably take No.11. Cruz Can take No. 20, Recoba will be transferred, then Crespo No.9 and Stsankovic No.11.

Also possible that Combiasso will take No.5. So, Argentine players will have same numbers as they had at the World Cup
