Ok, i figured it..

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[FN_DayNumeric_DateTime] 
(@DT DateTime)
RETURNS INT WITH SCHEMABINDING
AS 
BEGIN
DECLARE @Result int 
DECLARE  @FIRST_DATE        DATETIME
SELECT @FIRST_DATE = convert(DATETIME,-53690+((7+5)%7),112)
SET  @Result = datediff(dd,dateadd(dd,(datediff(dd,@FIRST_DATE,@DT)/7)*7,@FIRST_DATE), @DT)
RETURN (@Result)
END
GO
