    Nope McDonald should be number 7, its always been given to strikers in recent years, especially when it was Larsson's and hes our greatest striker ever.

    The wee man has been terrific however I don’t think anyone currently deserves the no7 shirt.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><o:p></o:p>
    <o:p></o:p>
    I would like to have seen us sign a player truly worthy of it.<o:p></o:p>

    I'd rather it came from within our squad than a new signing personally.

    I'm happy enough, there's room for improvement but he's here for the long haul and his goal tally has been impressive up til this point.

    Thats a bit harsh he scored a power of goals for us last season, I think he does deserve to wear the no7 shirt.

    lets get realistic here

    mcdonald cost 650,000, larsson cost nearly exact same to the pound

    mcdonald scored over 30 goals in his debut season, larsson scored 16

    hes no proved himself in the long run yet but going on first season alone i think hes more than justified being handed the no. 7

    I agree it would be best to give it to someone within our squad. Just not sure we have the type of player currently deserving of it.

    No question Skippy has been a success and I am glad he signed his new contract.

    However for me the no 7 shirt is sacred and only truly top class players deserve to wear it. IMO we are short of true top class players Naka & McGeady are close but not quite there perhaps McGeady in a couple of seasons would be a better shout.

    Surely you jest! I have it on good information that the large majority here think Naka doesn't do anything all game and is worthless! :fear::86:


    On McDonald, he's a 9 for me. Not quite a 10... which would be a 7 for him. I'd give it 1 year for the consistency, but I think he's got it in him. :50:

    Mcgeady prefer's number 10 shirt, hence why he is 46 as btoh number add up to equal ten, Skippy deserves it, scored in alot of goals this season and he is celtic through and through, lets hope he lives up to it unlike Juninho and Zurawski :97:
