United provisional squad numbers announced

Why doesn’t anyone wear the no#13..
I would’ve worn 13..

Aren't we supposed to be making a decision about Greenwood before the first game? Considering we are only few days away from that, surely if he was going to be in the squad then we'd have given him a number now?

No different to the fact Hjolund doesn't yet have a squad no, and 4 or 5 players we expect to leave have been given one.

No reason to give him a number now as these numbers are provisional and subject to change. I don't think his name/number being excluded tells us anything either way.

Perhaps not. But you'd have thought we'd have made the decision before announcing the numbers. It's getting a bit embarrassing now

Embarrassing how?

I understand not giving Hojlund a number because he's new but not including Greenwood is more telling I think when he already has a first team squad number.

Yep. Doesn't look good for him, but we shall see

Phil Jones's number has been retired

Why? Was his injury status legendary?
