Would be a good signing if Cammy moves on
I think he can play all over the midfield. Describes himself as a Box to Box midfielder anyway.Thought Bakinson a CDM, not a number 8.?
I'm always intrigued by these numbers. Generally, when 4-2-4 came in the back 4 was 2,5,6,3, the midfield was 4 and 10 and the front was 7,8,9,11. (8 and 10 may have been swapped by some managers) Then when Ramsey introduced 442, the back 4 was the same, 7 and 11 joined 4 and 10 (or 8) in midfield. Prior to this, we had 2-3-5 which had the numbers 2-11 in a rigid right to legt, row by row. I hear Klopp talk about 6s and 8s but don't understand what it refers to.Thought Bakinson a CDM, not a number 8.?

Thank you for responding, but I'm still interested where the numbering come from? Is from a coaching manual perhaps. With the squad numbering here days it's difficult to tell.6 is a holding midfielder. 8 is an attacking midfielder
