      The Number 7 Shirt
      Jul 11, 2014 04:21:59 pm
      Who would you like to see in it?

      Any of the possible new signings, any of the confirmed signings or a player who was here last season?

      I think giving it to Sterling would be a massive show of confidence for the lad.

      Just hope we don't give it away as willy nilly as we did the Number 9 shirt last season.

      Lambert.

      It was his number for Saints and as a Liverpool fan, it'd mean the world to him. However he won't be here long term and won't be a regular starter in that time, in my opinion, it may go elsewhere.

      If it does then Sterling would be my choice.

      I agree with Sterling, but we may end up giving it to Markovic I think. Would be a huge statement having the likes of Coutinho and Sterling/Markovic in the number 10 and 7 shirts respectively. Faith in the youth.

      Sterling is a great call!  I think he is going to be a huge player for us this season.

      Sterling, someone was wearing his shirt the other day I noticed got mentioned and I wondered then if it could be a sign that he's getting a nice upgrade in number.

      He's earned it.

      Not only that, he'll be here for years to come :D

      Give Sterling the #7!!!

      Let it lay fallow for a year.  Next season give it to the one that earned it.

      Unless we sign a player with the ego of a great player Id be careful here. Its our star number. Handing it to a young one like Sterling/Coutinho/Markovic will come with the pressure of living up to high standards of former number 7's

      Hope it's not handed out as if it has no meaning like the way Aspas was given the number 9 shirt.

      No one deserves it yet
      Have a bang on Modric Brendan
      Looks like Madrid may have some over capacity soon?

      There's some great players out there.
      Quite a few like our own Coutinho who didn't make the World Cup.o

      Stephan Kiessling, Marek Hamsik, Antione Griezman, Arda Turan i'd happily take any of these 4 along with Loic Remy or Wilfred Bony.

      Off topic slightly, but seeing people are calling for Sterling to get 7, wouldn't it make more sense for Sturridge to be given a more prestigious number, e.g 9 or 7.

      From current squad, Sterling is a good call

      Pjanic is from Bosnia and Herzegovina  ;)

      Sturridge should have the 9 IMO

      I don't think it is a shirt number that we should award too easily. I am happy to wait for the right player to come along.

      I agree that Sturridge should get the 9 shirt

      A little bit of context for the debate - I found this that charts the wearers from Keegan.

      www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/picturegalleries/8296804/Liverpools-No-7-shirt-from-Keegan-to-Suarez-in-pictures.html

      Me? I'd let Lambert have it for a year or two till Raheem grows into his destiny, as he surely will.
