Adam Johnson

If he goes which looks very likely I for one wish him well.
He will look back on his time with city with an FA Cup and Premier league winners medal.
Not bad for the alleged pisshead and he will no doubt be a guaranteed starter for England from now on.

a "guaranteed starter for England" may well be not good enough for be a city's starter

Never said he was good enough to start for city week in and week out.
As a player he frustrates the living daylights out of me as he has an enormous amount of ability. As mentioned before I'm underwhelmed with Sinclair in and AJ out as I would be with Rodwell in/NDJ out.

However if it's what Bobby wants then its good enough with me.

I doubt if its exactly what Bobby wants. For example, he wanted DDR but got Rodwell. I have feeling that we are settling for 2nd or 3rd choices.

I predict that in a few years we'll be happy with the fee we get for Johnson. For me he is the winger version of Stephen Ireland, plenty of talent and little application, will never get close to his potential. Remember, Ireland was going to be liberated when he left City and we got the raw end of the Milner deal... according to the bitter rags and all.

Johnson is technically alot better than Sinclair, but Sinclair certainly impacts the game more.

 

[Rammy Blue]

Be glad to see the back of AJ, liked him when we signed him but he just hasn't progressed.

Can't be a decent impact player when you've got no pace, can't be a starter when you don't put a shift in.

Decent left peg and dangerous when one-on-one on the edge of the box but other than that provides us with fuck all.

 

[Aphex]

Well it looks like he will be going

I'd love to see him start week in week out and get his form, but that isn't going to happen at ours. Like I said earlier in the thread, I wish him the absolute best and I hope he does it for Sunderland

Apart from a last minute'r against us of course. Again.

Brilliant post, although that last bit could apply to a lot of people on here, jesus wept the uproar was cringeworthy when that deal went through.

He wanted DDR and got Rodwell ? You really believe that ? Personally I think he wanted Rodwell, and got Rodwell, I'm judging it on the fact that after less than a week at the club he was selected ahead of other players who might have expected to play, one of whom played very well the previous week.

AJ is likely to go because he has consistently not shown enough application to play at the level City play at. When he starts he's usually anonymous, when he's brought on, he usually has a run and a shot right away, and then fades into the background, and he almost always puts the fullback behind him under pressure, unfortunately not the one he should be attacking.
