Good player and I'm excited he's here.

I'll judge this transfer when I find out how much cash is left over for other targets.

Yep.. what he said.

If Rafa brings in a Robben/Silva and/or Tevez type players as well as Johnson, we'll be laughing. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

If you sign Johnson for £17 million and Tevez for something similar i can assure you that you wont be the only one laughing! £17 million is a ridiculous fee for Johnson but he is a good playe and should so well for yous.
[/quote]

If he helps us win the title, we will be. If he's off in 6 months (ala Keane) then the joke will be on us.

Whenever you spend big, you have to look at the wider picture. He's young, he's england's no.1 (for now) and if he makes the RB position his own for Liverpool and gives us 5-10years of good service, then it'll be money well spent.

I'd sooner spend 17m on Johnson (for 5 -10years of good service) than buy 2 Dossena, both of who cost 7-8 odd million and who'd be shipped on within a year for half the price. Now, THAT is a waste of money. If Rafa had pushed the boat out in the past with our spending (or been allowed to whatever side you're on) we probably wouldn't have need to buy Johnson in the first place, as we'd have Alves rampaging the right. Instead, at the time, we got Pennant. Go figure.

transfer scene quiet on the arsenal forums?
[/quote]

Dunno, i haven't been on in a while. Id much rather be on here talking to sensitive little soldiers like yourself
[/quote]

you're welcome anytime 🙂
 
we were short 4 points if we'd bought someone that secured that extra four points (winning us the league) that signing would have been worth it even if it were over 20 million pounds.

Everyone keeps saying we need to sign more attackers attackers attackers.

Werent we the top scorers in the league last season?

What we need is other options, to break down the shite at home. Johnson will give us another option. He gets past the right winger and to the byline, and im sure he will create many chances for the forward lads to get on the end of.

Im fucking made up with this. Its what we needed, its the going rate, and we are finally competing in the transfer market.

One more quality attack minded player (winger/striker) and its been a good transfer window.

Stop your moaning (mors).
[/quote]

Yes we were Piedro. But we were quite dependent on Gerrard and Torres for the goals.
Kuyt and Benni contributed more during the 2nd half of the season and it would help to have another attack-minded player besides K & B to help lessen the burden on SG and Torres.
[/quote]

Are (Were) Manchester United dependent on Ronaldo for goals?

Are Chelsea dependent on Anelka & Lampard for goals?

Every big club is dependent on certain players for goals. Its why you have those players. Thats what they are there for. To score goals.

Im not saying I dont want us to sign another attacking goalscorer, I do. But im very happy with this signing, as it gives us a much better chance of breaking teams down at home.
[/quote]

Yep we always look at the goal scorers to perform and like you, i would also like another winger and ideally a back up striker.

Our reliance on gerrard and torres is greater man utd's reliance on ronaldo but we are definitely ahead of chelsea.

I like the Johnson signing too as Arbs was always a solid performer but he is our weak link in our defense when teams target his aerial liabilities. Can anyone still remember when we were 2-1 up against the arsenal when arbs made the mistake?
 
Glen, the two of us need look no more.
Liverpool's the club you're signing for.
First, sort out your crappy hair,
Your theft of toilet-ware,
Then, and only really then,
We'll love a player like Glen.

Like we all laughed at United when they spent £18m on Carrick? Yeah, I really wish we were buying a Belgian CB that no one's ever heard of instead. A snip at £10m...

It must be a nice relief for you to come on here and discuss exciting transfer news....rather than sticking to the Arsenal sites and having to discuss your captain (and best player) shamelessly pimping himself to Barce....As you were.

Bad name, bad hair, steals toilet seats from B&Q in Dartford. Cool he is not.

However, lets not depress ourselves. He is a decent player, that's all that matters.

Not sure it would make it much better if he was to be honest!

I think he took a more expensive toilet seat and put it in the box of a cheaper one, or something like that

He did it for Prince Charles.
 
According to WIki he claimed he was undercharged for the toilet seat and the security staff saw this as theft

He paid the £80 fine because it was 'easier' than going to court

A good player he may be, but he's a fucking rubbish bullshitter

Indeed, that's just poor isn't it? I assume he must've done it for a laugh but how could he possibly have got away with it? Even then he was reasonably famous, especially in Dartford where he is from and is hardly celeb central. He's gonna get noticed. Especially as he was with another footballer at the time (some knobhead who played for Millwall).

I've actually bought a toilet seat from the same store. I paid full price for mine though. Although I was undercharged for a kitchen worktop there so maybe we shouldn't dismiss Johnson's side of the story too quickly.....
