There are a few rules when it comes to football squad numbers.
Goalkeepers wear 1, only strikers should wear 9, and you're a dick if you go for a three-digit number (looking at you, Adolfo Bautista).

Everton have confirmed their second big-money signing of the January transfer window, signing Morgan Schneiderlin from Manchester United for an initial fee of £20m.
The Frenchman wore the number 28 at Old Trafford, a number currently occupied by Toffees youngster Kieran Dowell, so he'd need to go down a different route.
Among the vacant numbers at Goodison Park are 13, 24 and 31, so he has gone for...two.
Yes, two.

He might not be the first player to don the number two shirt despite not being a defender - indeed current Everton forward Arouna Kone wore the number during his time with Wigan Athletic - but there's something not right about a midfield player taking that number.
Even worse, Everton's number two shirt will forever be associated with club legend Tony Hibbert.
It's a little presumptuous of some £20m chancer to waltz in and think he can make it his own.
