Number on the shirt

Just a bit of fun, its not a best of Villa thread, but what players would you say are synonymous with a particular number.

My starters would be:

5 - God

10 - Sid

9- Andy gray
11- tony morley

7 - Ian Taylor
1 - Mark Bosnich
3 - Alan Wright
17 - Lee Hendre

petrov of course 19
ian taylor 7
brian little 8
andy gray/peter withe 9

4 -Mellberg

6 ... dennis mortimer

2 - John Gidman/Charlie Aitken (Jeez is my dad doing this)

Staunton #3
Southgate #4
Townsend #6
Angel #8
Merson #10
Agbonlahor #11
Joachim #12

10 - Atkinson
Also should have been Collymore thats why he failed, always played best in number 10
Number 11 was horrible for him, thats the only reason   

1 Spink
2 Barrett
3 Staunton
4 Mellberg
5 McGrath
6 Barry
7 Taylor
8 Platt
9 Saunders
10 Merson
11 Solano
12 Hitzlsperger
13 Bosnich
14 Wright
15 Nelson
16 Ehiogu
17 Hendrie
18 Yorke
20 Benteke
21 Cahill
22 Vassell

Savo number 10.

"But Savo didn't wear number 10, he wore 9" I hear you say!!! Well this is what happened, I went with a couple of mates to Warwickshire v Northamptonshire in the final at Lords, and my one mate, Batman was wearing his new Villa shirt on with 'Milosevic' and '10' on the back, a schoolboy error of monumental proportions If he had a pound for every time someone pointed out his error that day, he could've retired!!! Later on in the day, he would be stood up at the front (pissed) shouting "it's cricket, not football, we're hear for the cricket" at everyone, while wearing a Villa shirt :)

Surely the person who put the number on the shirt should have pointed the mistake out before they prated it?

Isaiah Osbourne really made number 27 his own.

Space banjo has it covered

Knowing Batman he got it done at some backstreet shop

Talking of Savo and Batman, we were both at what I seem to recall was his debut at the Hawthorns in a pre season friendly and during the warm up I turned to him and said "either he is taking the piss or he is really shit" most of his shots were closer to the corner flag than the goal!!!

Mine would be five for obvious reasons!

1=Jimmy Rimmer
2=Kenny Swain
3 Garry Williams/Colin Gibson
4=Allan Evans
5-Ken McNaught
6=Dennis Mortimer
7=Des Bremner
8=Brian Little
9=Peter Withe
10= Gordon Cowans
11=Tony Morley
12=David Geddis/Terry Donovan/Eamon Deacy

Ian Taylor 7
Joan Pablo Angel 8
Stylian Petrov 19
