A Nutz with A Johnson on the back? sounds intriguing.

cheers

The Kenyian Lad was a Mancini (nearly) signing but I'm 99% sure that Johnson is a Marwood signing with Mancini approval.

And there was me thinking he was on his bicycle.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Very handy player, good signing and pretty certain we'd have missed out in the summer as everyone would be in for him.

Moses is rough around the edges, but can make the odd appearance and come off the bench and has a great energy to him, very hard to mark and will be a star guaranteed.

Great news that we have had an offer accepted, getting nervous though as its not yet confirmed as done and the clock is ticking!

Love his boro nickname though,

Jinky!

I wonder if Jinky will be our new Kinky... time will tell, very good deal this though if it goes through, the lad will be a top prem player no doubt.

Not sure whether the Moses story still had legs, but he has signed for Wigan for £2.5M, a snip on his future value I think.

Out of interest, hand on heart, if someone offered you either moses at 2.5 million or johnson at 6 million rising to 10, who would you guys want?

I'd take johnson everytime.

Right now, Johnson but to be fair Moses has potential to be better in long run imo. Unfortunately I don't think we could offer him regular football he'd need to develope into top player.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

I find moses a fascinating player, sometimes he dazzles and others he does nothing. Your right if he could be a real star, time will tell.

Johnson however, every time i have seen him play i've been impressed. Whether playing for Boro or England U21's he always puts a shift in and gives it everything, which most of the time is alot. Downing was always touted as the great boro' talent and frankly i never rated him, johnson however outshines him in every way. at 6 million i think it will prove to be an absolute bargain! fingers crossed this goes through!
