In hindsight would he have even stepped up for us this year without Cesc? He doesn't have the character, in a team full of stars he's been shown up.

He was rubbish in midfield.
He can be devastating on the wings if he wants to be. But his application and work-rate is exposed when compared to top players and even average ones like Milner.
He's an ugly lesbian cunt face too, don't forget.
He needs to be played in the middle like he was when he was excellent for us and he'll come good.
That link BOBN posted pretty much has everyone saying that and more posters are having a go at Johnson
Of course his application may have dropped; he's got himself the pay rise he was after. Now he doesn't really need to apply himself, he still gets paid after all.
Nah, he was generally average in the middle. He played to a high level when on the right wing for three months, until Cesc returned, which somehow led to Nasri's fall in form. He's too much of a coward to dominate a game. And he takes too long to make passes from a central position. Silva is miles better obviously in this and every other regard. Doesn't matter for Citeh fans though, they'll just go out and sign another playmaker who can perform when needed. And it'll be down to another £300m sponsorship deal from some Abu Dhabi Corporation offshoot.
its was a crazy idea. no character, no balls and no real vision or passing ability. even the french NT has started to get that (been playing others in his 'favoured' position, dropping him etc)Quote:

Yeah, Marvin Martin has taken his place in the French NT (in the central role), no? Heard we were in for him in the summer, but to no avail.
people said that re henry (vs anelka) in the first 6 months as well.Quote:

if it was all about technique we would have won 5 of the last 7 championships
he has and I heard we were after him too but not sure what came of that.Quote:
