Adam Johnson

[BlueLion. 21,491]

The going rate for English wingers is ridiculous but Johnson would be a perfect signing. I say we make a starting bid of £25m with the potential to go up to £35m.

We had to pick him at Boro, now he is too expensive for the what he can really bring to the squad... Yes, good impact player with speed and pace but he isn't intelligent, his crossing ability is poor (I don't even know if he targets a precise zone when he crosses) and he does not know when to give the ball, like a 18 year old whereas he is 23...

Either taking Jarvis, Wolves have no financial struggle and if we put 10~15 on the table he is ours. Jarvis is such a fantastic player, I watch some Wolves games only to see him (and Fletcher also, imagine if we replace Kalou by Fletcher, giving the scot the support striker role Kalou did never have...). I'm sure the greatest replacement for Anelka is Steven Fletcher, he has the quality of a #10 and he is able to play on the wings.

I would sign him in a heartbeat given the chance. It would be like having a better Joe Cole!

If Downing goes for £20million.. AJ will cost around £25-30million, at least.

Agree 100% about Matt Jarvis, he is a great player and he is a workhorse. He reminds me of Antonio Valencia in terms of how far he will work for the team. I'd much prefer him to Johnson

I find Johnson even more overrated than Downing to be frank

theres a difference, downing was villas best player and they had already sold young, AJ is not needed at city so he will cost less, still think between £17m-£25m but imo he is worth it

That's not saying much ...

Mata and Johnson on the wings? Come on Roman, this is the right way!

[milllz 43]

What is with the fanatix links lately?

[SeB 1,281]

Fuck the "[...] planning a shock move for [...]" buzzing news... It's really boring...

[Rumour] #Liverpool and #Chelsea to lock horns with each other for the signature of out of favoured Manchester City winger Adam Johnson! Johnson aged 24 is expected to leave in January and is valued at around £15M-£18M. It is believed Johnson is willing to end his City career in search for regular first-team football. Liverpool have been looking for a right-winger and can guarantee Johnson regular first team football unlike at Chelsea who have options down the flanks.

Should we consider him!

Just read this. And got a thought to my self... playing with Sturridge - Mata - Johnson and Torres upfront...EPIC!

[SeB 1,281]

We should leave him to Liverpool, a front 4 featuring Johnson, Downing, Kalou and Carroll would be epic ! And well overpriced !

For me, Johnson is a waste of money, especially for nearly £20m. We should have take him at Boro, it's too late now
