To my eyes, Johnson has always essentialy been a winger that does a bit of defending.Should he be selected ahead of Johnson for England?Obviously not, but there is great potential there

Houllier signed him and it is now against the law to say anything that might reflect positively on him.Although if he had a shocker today, I'm betting there would have been plenty of "told you so" quotes on here today.

With respect, no-one's proclaiming that.Better than Luke Young by a mile on today's showing though.
I just hope there is a facility to sign him on a long term deal, as I fear SPurs will be waching and thinking he is better than what they have there by the look of him. Should have just bloomin bought him when he was at Sheffield.
He seems a good player, but what does upset me is that he is on loan from Tottenham, that means that Spurs don't consider us as competitors for them but as a small team. . .
