Glen Johnson

I really like him great footballer, But what about zab?

Zab (as ridiculous as it is) has been playing second fiddle to a poor Micah, and should've been playing at right back instead.

Now either way... Johnson is significantly better than both, and Hughes should certainly consider making a swoop for him.

Unless he wants to oversee Richards passing backwards while plodding along hopelessly all next season aswell.

When he was Micahs age, Johnson was getting much the same criticisms.

We shouldn't write off our own so quick.

Johnson is looking to be developing into a very good right back though.

I agree, however the comparisons with Richards end at the criticisms they received at a similar age.

They are two completely different players, Richards has never had Johnson's touch or crossing ability, he's more of a cumbersome centre half who relies on his pace and strength.

Johnson would do a great job at right back for us.

Johnson isn't that brilliant at defending though!

Johnson is so right footed it is untrue that's how got caught in possesion on Saturday, he is not that good a defender anyway

What a player, England's best in this first half by far.

He's bagged 2 assists and been involved in all 3 goals, a quality young player who can deliver a peach of a cross and is fantastic at overlapping.

He's exactly what we need in a 4-3-3 - an attacking full-back who supplies the team's width. This lad has a very promising future.

Unfortunately for Richards... he has absolutely no chance of playing at right back for England while Johnson still has two working legs.

Get the man signed!

been banging his drum all along, would love him at city, clichy on the other side and we'd be buzzin.

Just got his third assist.

There was a point when he was at Chelsea where he was putting in the worst performances i've ever seen in a player. He's done really well to get his career back on track.

Johnson is very, very overrated imo

agreed; lets give Micah time to develop. This time last year everyone was singing his praises and now some people can't wait to get rid of him! Lets hope he takes up Martial Arts with Superman over the summer.

Been absolutely dire again, if he was playing in a blue shirt he'd be getting ripped apart on this forum right now.
