When Borini was here, Johnson created & scored more despite Borini taking the penalties.Bench. No way he gets into the team infront of Lens, Borini, Defoe IMO.
Defoe dropping to bench, Borini as striker and AJ wide right?
we actually have attacking options? never thought I would see those days again
He's finally got some competition for that title people give him, I did think he was our best player in previous seasons, now I think Lens or M'Vila is potentially better, which means we've done good business. Johnson, while very talented, is inconsistent. Lens actually seems more consistent and dangerous. But Johnson is a lovely player, there's no doubt.When Borini was here, Johnson created & scored more despite Borini taking the penalties.
Johnson is probably still our best player
It will be interesting to see were he starts, he had played centrally a bit during pre season. Maybe;
DefoeFor me he has to start when he is fit, he is probably still our best player.
Borini Johnson Lens
Rodwell M'Vila
I dislike the use of stats to form opinions on players we've never seen anyway but I find the use of stats to say something about a player we've all seen, know all about and know exactly what he brings to the team just weird to be honest.what based on borinis stellar career stats i think he manages a goal about every 8 games and an assist about every 27
What? I've replaced Ola with Johnson in the central attacking role, Rodwell is just there to give us some balance.After seeing how much Toivenan put himself about last week and how inept and anonymous Rodwell was, you would really pick Rodwell in front of him?
Increyable.

Also I try not to read too much into debut performances, both good and bad. I will give Ola a few more games before I judge him.
He's barely played!He has been pretty rubbish since the allegations came out like.

I think the point is Toivonen can't play in the position he's picked Rodwell for. If he'd have put Rodwell as the advancaed midfielder you'd have a point.I keep trying to give rodwell a few more, too and I still keep telling myself he'll come good but, based on Saturdays evidence, I'd still choose Toivenan ahead of him. He just looked like he didn't want to hide. Rodwell performance on Saturday, (or certainly his first half showing), was possibly his most inept for us yet and that's a bold statement, given how bad he's been at times.
I've said on here time and again that he'll come good... but when?
I think he needs to have to fight for his place again.
He was excellent in pre-season, and despite the shambles the back 5 (Catts included, not Pants) made of the first game he provided a good assist for Defoe's goal.He has been pretty rubbish since the allegations came out like.
Toivonen isn't a central midfielder.
Nor is rodwell, based on Saturdays performance. He was wherever the ball wasn't.
I think the point is Toivonen can't play in the position he's picked Rodwell for. If he'd have put Rodwell as the advancaed midfielder you'd have a point.
Banter.
He could. Also, Larrson & Cattermole would rightly be picked there before toivonen.I guess.
He can't be any worse there, though.
It's true though. I'd love to see some stats but I only remember him touching the ball once in the first half on Saturday.
