Zlatan Ibrahimovic Wants No. 10 Role When He Returns To United 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri Nov 17, 2017 6:35 pm

Zlatan Ibrahimovic would be happy to assume the No. 10 role when he returns to Manchester United's lineup.

Ibrahimovic suffered a torn ACL last April and Romelu Lukaku has become United's No. 9 this season.

"To me, No. 10 is the star," Ibrahimovic said in a promotional video for Volvo. "The one who makes the difference, gets noticed, wins the matches and is the leader. And I see myself in that position but it is not something that is given to you; it is just something you are. That's just the way it is.

"To be honest, it is like a trigger for me coming back from that injury because I wore the No. 10 in the Swedish national team and PSG. I would have worn it at Inter, but I soon moved to Barcelona. I wanted it in Milan but took another number out of respect. In Ajax I didn't have it.

"I feel like a 10 and I stand for No. 10. It will go down in history that I always had No. 10."

yeah he ain't getting it, forget it, in actual fact, we should be going for a #10 in the transfer window (whether that is Dybala or Griezmann, yeah, we need that kind of quality to compete).
