talk to him alone if he understands then the good thing is for him just prove you deserve the number by performing up to the expectations the fans have for you
I think Zach is realistic and considerate, his arguments for the most part is sound as to the shirt number. He is also being humble, this is a bigger stage for him hence his humility is admirable. A shirt number does for some players have significant meaning, its not just a number, its also its weight and responsibility. Zach, I think understands the weight of a number 10 football shirt, its not just for show.
