Brennan Johnson

[AjaxAndy]

He'd actually be perfect for playing against Newcastle. They are WIDE open on the break due to Jaissle playing 3-1-6 when in possession.

It's a huge problem though when you have a player whose entire effectiveness requires someone who can thread balls between the lines, and the only player we have who can do that, sits on his arse for 90 minutes most games.

If he starts against Newcastle then Hackney must start too, or there's absolutely zero point having him in the team.

Was hoping we might see some early indications of his Forest days. Far from it.

Him and Noogard and major downgrades on Ndiaye and Gana.

[Shogun]

He's crap though isn't he? Like it's all well and good saying he's this type of player and he'd well suited against X, Y, Z but he's been rubbish. He won't be good against anyone because he is crap.

When you look at how Spurs played when Johnson was on fire it's clear why he's been shit at Palace and now us.

Pass, pass, pass, move the opposition around, quick interplay, open up the gap, slip Johnson in.

That's why he was good. He wasn't being asked to Ndaiye it from the edge of his box up field using tricky dribbling, and he wasn't expected to chase flick ons from a striker who doesn't flick it on.

Palace played fast direct transitions and he wasn't effective, and we play hoof ball where he doesn't touch it.

We won't see the Spurs version unless we play to his strengths, and under Moyes that's pretty much guaranteed to not happen.

Decent at running fast against tired defenders. Last 15 mins of games.

Not starting every fucking match.

Honestly you crack me up man

[Bumble]

I shudder to think what he must be on a week.

For the next 4.5 yrs.

[Cozzie]

Fucking Norgaard and this twirp.

Why do we always do this man.

Honestly you crack me up man

Have you watched Newcastle this season?

If you exploit the space in behind you win, it's about as simple to play against as you can get at this level.

He’s finished.

Even if we play to his strengths he’s not going to start bagging them in.

Rather have him for McNeil but there’s a reason why palace thought those players were on the same level.

He might, he's a good finisher who has good movement. The fact is though we haven't, and never will play the way we'd need to find out one way or another.

Haven't seen any evidence of him having good movement or being a good finisher

[Silas]

Quick and a bit shit compared to slow and a bit shit. He's an upgrade if Moyes wasn't starting him every bastard game

[brap2]

£100k a week for 4 years on a new, shit player is not a better deal than losing a shit player on a free is my opinion
