I'll bite mate. Johnson is helpful. £6 million for a defender who has a year left to run? Before you bring up Ashley Young, far more important and better player. Still, better deal than the £18 million you wasted on Tubby.
Johnson is a good player Mark, he was top for us in the second half of last year, especially on the left.
As I said, £6m is only a decent fee. In reality, we should only have paid about £3m-£4m for him, but inflation takes its toll. Remember, left back is one of those positions where there isn't a wide pool of talented players, but it's not as bad as us over paying for Carroll, etc.
Who's Tubby? You wasted £18m on a tubby - Anderson - the pizza box to pizza box midfielder.
