Personally I've lost all hope with Johnson but let's hope he gets himself straight and playing again.


No mate, don't lose all hope...

I've a feeling he'll be back soon and raring to go.

I can feel it in my waters..

Wait wait wait, I am willing to concede he was not the worst player on the park on Sunday, but to go from awful performance to decent performance to (reported) MotM against Fulham second string does not in any way, shape or form make him a well rounded midfielder.

I didn't see the Fulham game, but assuming he hasn't broken a long standing tradition, he hasn't got a shot on target EVER in a City shirt, can't pass the ball forwards and if he does get caught in possession which happens despite the glow from his halo blinding some of our posters, he inevitably loses the ball.

Barry, Ireland, Johnson...all yes, De Jong and Kompany are most definitely NOT well rounded midfielders.

Yes. I often say things I don't mean, it makes me completely unaccountable for everything I may or may not believe in, do or say.

Never criticise a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes.
That way when you do criticise him you'll be a mile away.
And you'll have his shoes.

Why? He is Dutch, he is from Holland. What's the problem?

What about if I named the village he's from? Or the street? Or am i then villagist or streetist respectively?
