Accompany their carriers on their adventures in the field, silent witnesses printed on t-shirts of those chosen to defend the colors of your team. More than just numbers, with the passage of time dorsal acquired its own category to identify with the characteristics and position of the players who took them to the back. Thus, the dorsal identification numbers were no longer in football to a legend created around them. In this post we will analyze, from 1 to 11, the tradition that surrounds each dorsal and the evolution and changes that have lived over the years and changes in board issues.
Note that, except for a few as 1, 2 and 9, the ridges can see changed their traditions and the type of player who leads according to the time and, above all, the gaming system. Secondly, it is noteworthy that in recent decades has largely lost the mystique that surrounds the dorsal amendments to the Regulation and the massive influx of marketing in football. If at first the players are numbered from 1 to 11 according to their position in the field, each player now has the same back all season. Something that seems more logical about the times, but has not ended the tradition of each issue although some do real damage with it.
The numbers were taken for the first time in the history of football a August 25, 1928 in a match that pitted the English Arsenal and Chelsea. The reason was mainly that the arbitrator could recognize the players more easily. The substitutes were counted from 12, and if they were superstitious were not required to take the 13. It was in the 1954 World Cup in Switzerland, where for the first time the players had a fixed number for the entire championship. However, players were allegedly carrying headlines the first eleven numbers. However, there are famous exceptions such as Johan Cruyff, who liked to take the 14 or the Argentina in 1978 and 1982, which divided the dorsal alphabetically including 1. In 1982 there was an exception with Maradona, who was given 10.
Everything changed in 1993 and was again the pioneer FA. It abolished the rule in the primeval numbers 1 to 11 so that each player could carry any number of players to the limit allowed on the roster. They also began to register the names of the players on top of each column. The rest of the league, later or earlier, adopted this system until today, where each player can have any number either from 1 to 99.
Throughout the post you will see three different slates with numerous references to three different formations among the most recognizable. The number one answer to the most classic where he played up to five forwards. On more than one occasion that you will have heard of The Big Five of Zaragoza-Canario, Santos, Marcelino, Villa and Lapetra-, serve as an example of a system formed with two inside, two ends and a center forward. In this system we can see the evolution of the 4-3-3 that currently use several teams, including FC Barcelona, although the ends are no longer as pure and interiors are more midfielders.
The number two is more akin to the Dutch school and attacking 3-4-3, which was later used Cruyff in the Dream Team. Shows the variation-in some occasions that the defense was counted from right to left with the central bore 3. Finally, number three, a diamond shape, which we talked recently , where the numbering is characterized by the classic hitch 10 or 5 from midfield, more common in South American football.
The numbers one by one to 11
1 is the back of goalkeeper and is the most traditional numbers despite some strange exceptions or allocation Argentina alphabetical commented before, in 1978, the goalkeeper had the 5 -. Fillol On the other hand, 13 is usually chosen for the goalkeeper, or 25 if the template has three goalkeepers. Goalkeepers like Yashin, Zoff and Zamora made famous this column.
On 2 pertncce by custom to the right side, although a dorsal currently does not call too much attention from the players and it is not strange to see him without a master on a template or the latest additions. The usual 3 is holding the other side band, left foot, where they have dignified players like Roberto Carlos or Maldini. As we mentioned earlier, 3 it was not uncommon to see in the Dutch school-board two. An example is Danny Blind, the central European champions Ajax in 1995. Other stations that carry the 3 are Piqué and Pepe.
The 4 is generally a central. Koeman wore it on several occasions in Barcelona, and Fernando Hierro, Real Madrid, who left the witness plays Sergio Ramos but more usually lateral. On the board we see the number two 4 belongs to the midfielder who is ahead of the defense. Guardiola took this back most of his career, and it looks Cesc as captain of Arsenal. Curiously, no one carries this season at the Catalan club following the departure of Marquez.
The 5 will usually take the central midfielder and slate three. Cannavaro celebrated as central or Sanchis, or midfielders like Redondo and other Argentine midfielder Mascherano and Gago or so have dress. On the board can also be the two left-back: Frank De Boer took him when he stood to the left of Blind. Destination for a rebound, Zidane took him in Madrid. The 6 is also another number that throughout history have shared central midfielders. Was the number of Beckenbauer and Baresi and Mauro Silva also. On the blackboard two we see is a number, perhaps by elimination, that sometimes had the playmaker. In this system behaved Bakero in Barcelona, and also the number of Xavi.
7 and speak with one of the dorsal par excellence. Belongs par excellence to the far right, as in Brazil Garrincha, Amancio in the Real Madrid Figo at Barcelona. Cristiano Ronaldo and Beckham, who know the band but not as extreme right hand as above, also like a 7, they become at all a publicity gimmick. On the board three we see how the owner can also be the second striker, with Raul who comes immediately to mind. Villa now or Butragueño and Juanito had also previously 7. However, the numbers 7, 8 and 11 of the third board can be changed either.
8 is historically the number inside right, hence the meaning of "lane eight" or "track ten" on the left. Each in his side, acting as midfield that helped both defense and attack, but were considered eminently offensive players. Although not in these guidelines, players who have taken the eight were Michel, Mijatovic or Stoichkov. On 9 needs no introduction. In fact, the center front of a computer is called directly with this issue. Front area, the living and the goal, they celebrated this issue, the enemy par excellence of central and porters. Di Stefano, but not be a classic striker Ronaldo, Van Basten and terrorizing defenses with 9 on his back.
The 10 is the dorsal par excellence. Historically characterized the figure of his team and take lead responsibility for use with dignity, even Lass to strive to the contrary. Pele and Maradona, two of the best ever, elevated him to the altar Balompédica, and players like Roberto Baggio, Ronaldinho or Laudrup overestimated his myth. Today Messi continues adding to his legend. In one two boards would be the number of interior-handed, while the three, the classic South American engagement.
And we finished with 11, which is usually associated with far left, as people at Real Madrid. A more recent example would be to Overmars at Ajax. It could also be the second point, and some celebrated strikers like Romario and Ronaldo, when he arrived at the Bernabeu, so have been.
