I don't see Deuce changing from 8, but maybe he does. My vote is for Bradley.

To rub salt in the wound, Green.

The US team is unique in that the 9 and 10 numbers aren't always that meaningful. Jozy always wears 17, Dempsey prefers 2 or 8. We've seen plenty of fringe guys wearing 9 in the past, although I think Bacon gets 9 this time around.

I'd guess Mix or Green gets 10.

Somebody who isn't as worthy.

Just a guess

Bradley-4
Dempsey-8
Jones-13
Jozy-17

I'd say those are locks

Guesses

Brad Davis-14? One of the random numbers no one wants.
Beckerman-5
Bedoya-11
Wondo-19
Bacon-9

So that is 9 guys with 11 midfield and attacking options. Leaving Mix and Green for 7 and 10.

I've always wondered why Dempsey switched for 2 to 8 right before the 06 WC

I do. We don't really have a traditional #10. Landon wasn't a #10, but he was the best player on the field. The closest thing to a ten on this team would be Dempsey, but I don't see him taking that number.

Same. Do we have to pick #s 1-23? or can we skip ten?

I think Klinsmann knows he done messed up enough already, I can't possibly see him advising Green to wear 10. I'm going with Mix, or maybee someone like Zusi really wants it.

Just noticed I left off Zusi.

So it would be Zusi, Mix, and Green for 7, 10, and one of the random numbers no one wants.

I'm 100% opposed to Green getting it. It sends the wrong message. Give it to Mix, I guess.

Maybe it's the Bama fan in me, but yeah, I don't like retiring numbers. No one person is bigger than the team.

My day 1 rage would kick in agian if Green gets the 10 shirt. The only reason he would get it is too push him as the new LD. But, when he fails to make any meanigful play in Brazil its only going to remind me that Donovan was cut from the squad so this guy could be flaunted as the new face, but couldn't produce anything to what Landy could have.

sorry if not comprehensible im still ranting.

WGAF? We´ve never had a 10, so it´s not really important (as in the NT´s case, it designates no one nor signifies anything).

Who´s wearing brown shoes, who´s wearing black shoes? Kind of the same importance.

No idea why people have so much invested in a damn number. Who gets #10 is meaningless.
