Vadim, there was no number allocation in 1993/94. Untill 1995 (or beggining of 94/94 season, I'm not sure now) no player was assigned a certain number therefore no player names were written on the jerseys. The starting 11 players wore numbers 1-11 according to position. Therefore, whoever played as a center-forward wore the #9. So if MVB played he wore the number 9 and if he was on the bench and another player played as a center-forward then that person wore #9. So #9 was nobody's jersey as many players wore it throughout the season.
I think England was the first league to adopt the number+name allocation on a jersey in 1993(not sure on that one).
