Shaffers 1 Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Hi everyone, This is my first post so here it goes. This is not a transfer rumor but more of a personal opinion that we should try and sign Adam Johnson. My reasoning behind this is that we need a reliable right winger who can get you goals as well and Johnson would fit into that category. I also think that the player would be interested in coming because unlike at City, Chelsea would guarantee him a first team place because at City he has the competition from Milner and Wright-Phillips where as at Chelsea we only have Nicko on the right who is not a natural winger. Johnson would also allow us to play the 4-3-3 again which is our best formation with probably Torres up top, which is his best position also. The only sticking point would be the transfer fee for me but after spending 50 mil on Torres who knows? Love to here what you guys think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Abramovich 175 Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 I don't think he's good enough, as soon as City can they'll replace him with a player that can help them challenge for the title, not top 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmax 9,219 Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 He's a very good player, much better than any of our 'wingers'. I'd have him in a heartbeat, though I doubt City would want to sell him to an English rival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DYC. 7,542 Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Fantastic player and he would be a great buy but getting him is sadly pretty much impossible.I remember us always being heavily linked with him when he was at Middlesbrough.. missed opportunity I guess.

eldo 868 Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 He's better than Milner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrismada9 1,948 Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Adam Johnson is a great midfield player! Very quick down the wing! I think he'll stay at Man City though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Marc Albrighton would be cheaper & could be our own Adam Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kojo 4,676 Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Not a bad idea, he had incredible talent at Middlesbrough, always knew he would get somwhere, he's also got some shot on him from an angle to. I don't see how this would be a bad choice, but i wouldn't say he was first choice if we wanted a winger, then again he can play both wings.

Guest Homer2Chelsea Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Can't see them selling their best winger to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaffers 1 Posted April 9, 2011 Author Share Posted April 9, 2011 If we could not get Johnson then I agree Albrighton would be a great signing and I could see him coming as well considering all that is going on at Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 4,400 Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 The type of player we need. Young, skillful, direct, scores goals, attacks, English... What more can i say. He'd be a fantastic signing because he is a cracking player. And yes.... he is Chelsea and premiership class imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave30 728 Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 i would honestly prefer him to neymar , Lukaku or Sneijder . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheva. 5,373 Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Mancini almost never uses him anyway, a cheeky bid would be welcome i would honestly prefer him to neymar , Lukaku or Sneijder .Maybe Lukaku yeah, not sure i would take him over Neymar or Sneijder tbh.

He also seems to be a nice guy and a player who is truly interested in playing the game simply because of his love for football . If the media is to be believed then Neymar has a big ego and sneijder is greedy . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
