even though 'the number' doesnt make the player in the world of football, and the number doesnt really mean anything....the fact the so many greats, infact legends from around the world have worn the number 10 jersey it should be respected by giving it to a player who's worthy of it, or not given at all....one that possesses a fair bit of talent, skill and flair.
eg: in france, the number 10 was worn by one of the greatest players the world has seen "zizou". the french national team have since retired the number 10 jersey so no one else will be able to wear it.
I watched voronin play in the world cup last year, and he, by all means is not a stand out player....he looks more the type (in our team) to come on from the bench in the 75th or 80th minute if we're struggling to score, as he might be able to score an assy goal.
does that deserve the number 10?? i wouldve expected him to get a jersey in the 20's !!!!!
