Breaking SSN Adam Johnson bid...& Moses news

[Hinch's 5 Fingered Salute]

Think Benjani could still do it for one of the lower prem league teams such as Hull, Burnley and Bolton. Would be a step down at his age.

[Leedsblue]

Quite like Johnson and think it would be a good signing.

Makes you wonder who is making the signings though. I doubt very much Mancini knows to much about him.

Very good point. Brian Kidd's input maybe

The clubs policy after the accelerated summer transfer spurge on experienced players was to invest in top young talent, Brian Kidd had a big input in this process pre his promotion to assistant, so i'd imagine as you say he's pulling the strings on this one, not that mancini doesn't know of johnsons talents, when we played boro i'd imagine he was impressed by him, just as i was.

[Fidel Castro]

So what is the Moses news??? Johnson looks a very good player but I'd be more excited if we signed VicMos tbh

[kinkylola]

both of these signing would be great ... great for the future and great to have young english talent in the team.

[Slim]

Victor Moses is a brilliant player, very happy if we got him. Adam Johnson has been in good form this season and even think he was a handful for us until he got injured.

Good signings, picking up the crop from the championship is a smart move.

[ant london]

Johnson is a crackin player. Definitely worth signing.

Great player. Would slot right in here.

If he is so fucking good why aint no1 else after him and why is he in division 1 like this other guy who i have never heard of from the main post?

You clearly know fuck all about football and young talent in this country. That or your on a wind up. Can't make out wether your a rag, a blue bin dipper or a gooner.

Ha ha, hardly covering himself in glory with his posts tonight is he. Not heard of Victor Moses ffs? What planet you been livin on the last few weeks?

Planet of the retarded spastics where he and the other forum bottomfeeders live. Thought that was obvious

It is a matter of public record that we buy players by committee, so the likes of Marwood, Kidd and Mancini will have all been involved and we'll have lots of scout reports and no doubt video's of him playing.

Having said all that, I think maybe Mancini might have noticed the lad playing against us earlier in the year!!!!

[Mark (Blue Army)]

I would definitely take Johnson he's a top young player, haven't seen much of Moses though but if were after him im sure the club know what there doing.

[john@staustell]

Johnson is top drawer, much better than that Downing bloke Villa signed. Scores goals too, has an end product. And doesn't run into people and give the ball away too much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Moses is excellent too, scores goals and goals and goals. Thought it was a done deal with him weeks ago but now there's a game of cat and mouse. The administrators have declared they need to sell in the next 2 days. Knowing that, clubs dont want to pay too much BUT, lots of clubs are interested. Interesting.

For those that haven't heard of them (?!) both ran rings around us in cup ties this season as well. In fact I was mighty relieved when Johnson went off injured.

[Niall Quinns Discopants]

i havent read the thread, i literally can't be arsed cos i hate football at the moment, but johnson is a cracker of a player and better than downing. if anyones mentioned that, i agree.

Spot on mate.

Can't get myself worked up either way today. Or tomorrow either probably. I'm really not arsed right now.

But yeah, Johnson is very very promising talent with great eye for goal. Moses is one for the future. And both are available on relative cheap. So at worst they'd represent good piece of business as we could sell them on for profit. So go get them. Or don't. I don't care.

[Crossie]

I felt like that last night, but now, I've woken up feeling renewed, I want us to punish the little minows we play in our next run of games, I want to banish this ghost with a Adebayor hatrick, 1 for Tevez and Ireland, Portsmouth are going to get punished. Bolton will get rolled over.

I'm with you Crossie. Let's move on and get the steamroller started!

My feelings too - after yet another kick in the bollocks from City, and then having to explain it all to a heartbroken 8 year old son when I got back means my enthusiasm for transfers etc isn't top of the pops at the moment.

A media black-out has been enforced, no Sky sports, no newspapers or football on TV until saturday night and this will be the only footy site I visit for any City updates.

I'm doing the exact same thing - can't face any of it just yet. I just can't wait till Sunday to get this out of my system although it may take a little longer this time.

[Beefymcfc]

Just heard on SSN that Strachan has refused all bids for Johnson and that he is staying at Boro!

[avoidconfusion]

Yea. Holding out for more money?

[Mike J]

well he is a thick cunt then, he will just leave for nothing at the end of the season.... and boro certainly aint gonna go up. they need all the money the can get. if we bid enough this will go through.

[Bianchi on Ice]

Johnsons contract is up in the summer I think. Youve got 3 days to see sense strachan you munchkin after that he walks.

In this case fook all is up to Strachan, the chairman and the board have two choices flog him now and make 5-10 million or wait til the summer and he goes for nothing.

Boro can't afford for him to walk away for free so i fully expect him to leave them before the end of the window.
