There's murmurings on Twitter that Johnson could be off to Spain.

We really don't need that right now, if there's any truth in it.

depends how much for i guess.

if we can reinvest it and have someone who can head the ball when it gets crossed into the back post we'll be ok
 
He's been linked to Spain ever since he started studying Spanish.
We need rid of Downing and other fringe players before we completely destroy the back four.
 
Not seen any mention of a club but would have thought Real or maybe Atletico.

I don't see him as indispensable but we don't need to be losing first team players now.

We do, if they're not good enough.

These "first team players" were the ones that finished 7th last season.
 
Not too fussed if he leaves. I used to be a big fan, and always thought his defensive lapses were exaggerated on here and elsewhere. Now I get the sense that his best football is behind him.
 
He's always wanted to play in Spain apparantly.
For the right fee I'd let him go. High wages and not good good enough performances on a regular level.
Is at fault for a lot of goals with his comalike defending.
 
Well go and buy someone then. Duh!


It's not that simple.

We haven't been linked with any right fullbacks, hence why I don't believe it.
Also,

“We are building under Brendan,” he said.
“With the owners that we have got now, you can see the foundations are there and everything is going the right way.
“If we can keep the players that we have got here then everything looks promising. The members of staff, the players – we are all the same. We want to keep Luis here.”

- Glen Johnson, two days ago (from the Echo).
 
I have no idea if if these rumors are true or not, just saying that I think we can/should do better.

Liverpool FC right-back Glen Johnson targeted

    We were made aware of a certain rumour last night regarding Liverpool defender Glen Johnson. We’ve made further enquiries today and according to our sources, two Spanish sides have made early enquiries for his services. We haven’t gathered the full details regarding this story at the moment and will update in due course.
 
Thats not the source mate. Tony Evans mentioned this a couple of months ago.
A few others have said it aswell. Its all dependent on the right offer, which most likely wont come imho.
 
If we get an offer of 10-20 million, I think we should seriously consider it if we have a replacement in mind. He's not going to get any better, and he's not the greatest defender. A great attacking player on his day, but we need a solid back four and he struggles to be an active part of that for large chunks of the season. If we don't have a replacement lined up however, I wouldn't sell. We cannot start the season with Wisdom, Flanagan and Kelly as our RBs.

So, the reason this thread was started was due to something Tony Bullshit Evans said a couple of months ago ?

Ok, that makes sense.
 
Tony Evans mentioned it at some TAW thing a while back.
There are maybe 4-5 Liverpool related accounts on Twitter that are worth a follow, the umpeenth others are not to say the least (like that Indy lad).

2 of those have also said this aswell. If the right offer comes he'll leave.
Imho I think it will happen after this season instead as we've changed around a lot in defence already.

If it happens we'll buy a new right back, if he stays then fine. This isnt something we have to fix now.
 
Cant see Johnson going this summer but even if he doesn't, I think Kelly will take his place if he can stay clear of injury. Maybe not at start of the season but soon after.
Get the impression Rodgers is a big fan.

So why wasn't Kelly played today?

I don't know. After a long lay-off last season, Rodgers is probably easing him back in.

As I say, I expect Johnson to be our no1 right back at the start of the season but eventually Kelly will put him out of the team imo.
 
He and Borini have been the standout worst performers across the pre-season games I've seen.

He's been woeful.
