most of the young lads that play for the team I manage describe positions heavily influenced by FIFA. For example, one of the lads asked me who was playing 'cdm' and I had no idea what he was talking about
those two are quite interchangeable I'll give you that- but I do think squad numbers generally do still follow a format (1-11 anyway), and so they should
but surely the 'second striker' role is traditionally known as the 'number 10' role? I admit there can be variations in it- mostly from personal preference of players. However, being number 2 as anything other than a right back is a DISGRACE
I have a real obsession with players having the "correct" squad number for their position if they have a number between 1-11
1: Goalkeeper
2. Right Back
3. Left Back
4. Defensively minded central midfielder or perhaps a centre back
5. Centre Back
6. Centre Back- perhaps a defensive midfielder...
