I'd just like to point out thatdespite often being wrong, I bigged up going for Johnson at £3m, and many on this site thought he was either too slow, or shite.

I thank you 😉

[/quote]You musta caught him on a black and white telly ay?
 
I wanted him when he was in his last year at Boro, but we went for Riera I think.

He hasn't exactly set the world alight at City, but he's definitely got the makings of a top four player.
 
surprise surprise. still somehow disappointed though.

@rorysmith_tel: My phone's being irritating, so you've all missed two of my pearls of wisdom. Here's a recap: u21 tournament pointless; no #LFC bid for AJ.

Liverpool Consider Adam Johnson Bid

Liverpool are said to be considering a move for Manchester City’s Adam Johnson. It is believed that Kenny Dalglish will attempt to bring the winger to Anfield, should he fail in his efforts of talking Aston Villa down from their £20m valuation of Stewart Downing.

Negotiations between Liverpool and Aston Villa are currently hanging by a thread, with their American owners trying to price Liverpool out of a move for their prized asset. But sources suggest that Adam Johnson could be on Dalglish’s radar should the deal for Downing collapse completely.

Adam Johnson remains a bit-part player at Eastlands, and the imminent influx of summer additions is likely to push him further down the pecking order. It is believed that the 23-year-old has asked the club to listen to offers for him as he hopes to achieve first team football elsewhere.

And Liverpool, with the lure of a long-term rebuilding project focused around young British talent, could prove to be the perfect destination for Johnson; although City are unlikely to let the winger leave for less than £16m – especially not to a rival club.

Kopsource rating: 73% – (Kopsource ratings explained)

Player rating: 72% Player potential: 80% Value for money: 80% Likelihood: 50%

It has been given on good authority that Adam Johnson is looking for a way out of his Eastlands nightmare, although reports surrounding a potential bid for the player seem to be somewhat unfounded, unfortunately. However, even though this story doesn’t necessarily indicate an imminent move for the player, it does highlight the 23-year-old as a very realistic option.

Young, British and full of potential, Johnson fits in perfectly with Dalglish and FSG’s vision for the club, which has seen them invest as they aim to rebuild for the future.

The only stumbling block would come in form of City’s valuation of the player. Mind, anything below £17m would be a very good deal; although that will undoubtedly be strongly debated.

Adam Johnson as DOWNING'S FALL BACK OPTION? FUCK ME SIDEWAYS FUCKING HELL!
 
Could play as a winger or as one of a front three. Could be invaluable given how our formations change.

[/quote]Na Slug, No way would Ryan give such high percentages.
 
No idea if this is legit or anything, but I'd love it if we signed Johnson, love it!

Class, bags of tricks, can play either right or left. £17m is a decent price too really considering we spunked close to 20 on Henderson.
 
Don't rate Johnson either. Sure he's pacy and tricky but I think we should be concentrating on efforts on getting players like Mata who can apply brains to those attributes as well.
 
Re: Re: Adam Johnson

Played for england?

Did he gave a go while at boro ?
 
An excellent point. Unfortunately supply and demand coupled with the fact that they don't have to sell (especially to a CL rival) will result in someone paying over the odds.

They paid 7m for him.

What has he done since he moved to increase his value by 10m?
[/quote]

They paid 7M for him in a january window when the other clubs were waiting for summer to get him on a free....

If you pay near on 20M for Henderson Johnson is definitely worth a big fee, IMO the best English winger in the league by a mile and unlike Downing actually worth forking out for.

To be fair, does that mean anything? I mean how do English wingers match up against the best in the world?
How does Johnson match up against someone like Arjen Robben?
IMO Gerrard still is the best English winger. Despite the fact that he isn't really a winger.
Don't think any of the English wingers in the premiership have contributed nearly enough as Gerrard did when he was played on the right by Benitez. What was it 18 goals?
 
[quote author=dmishra link=topic=45739.msg1351461#msg1351461 date=1308410637]
I think Johnson has the potential to be somewhere as good as Robben.
[/quote]

Not sure he can ever be that good ..... but I'd like us to take the gamble.

I think we need to move away from the idea that if we spent shitloads on unproven talent then we need to spend even more on other players, otherwise we'll need a new sugar daddy.

Signed a contract.

His one at Boro had to next to finished.

He acts like a smug cunt all right, but he's a better player than Bale IMO.

That's complete bullshit mate.

Bale, whilst slightly overrated in my view, is much the better player.

Johnson's done next to nothing in the game. Bale has.

Maybe I missed it, but what exactly has Bale achieved in the game?

Give us the scoop Gary!

Did i say achieved?
