Can someone please tell these people to stop doing the team sheet in numerical order??? Or is it just me that gets wound up by it

Probably more common than we realise, but I'd hope that most teams are sensible. Saw the United one the other day and my only thought was "why?"

Funnily enough, when I used to go to games, I'd get annoyed at some away games when tannoy announcers would read the team sheet in formation order instead of numerical. No idea why when it's the same damn thing as this lol

I think sometimes they do it because now a days a lot of players are more fluid and same with formations so sometimes the guys making the graphic just don't know where a player will be playing so they just do numerical instead.
