Updated Squad Numbers

According to the official Arsenal website our new signings will wear the following shirt numbers this season:

9: Julio Baptista
10: William Gallas
15: Denilson

I wonder why Gallas is wearing the number 10 shirt vacated by Bergkamp and now the number 3 shirt as worn by Cole? 10 seems like a strange number for a defender. Also the selection of the 15 shirt for Denilson highlights that he's been bought in to be a member of the first team not a reserve or youth player. Wenger obviously has high hopes for him. Finally Julio Baptista as our new number 9, that's really exciting. He's got all the tools to be a power forward.
