What? You mean we haven't got some magic beans we can shake to keep Doku, Foden, De Bruyne, Kovacic and Haaland quiet? |  |

Maybe shouldn't have started two none defensive quality defenders on that side then. If you're going johnson then you need a defensive minded player with him. Or if it's godfrey a defensive minded player like burns to assist. But of course. Genius KM Never gets things wrong. |  |

It's only been a couple weeks since leicester kept them down to 2 at home. Never expected us to get a point today. But it's been embarrassing. |  |

Someone who thinks Burns is "a defensive minded player" probably shouldn't be calling out the most highly rated young manager in the UK for his tactical prowess. |  | |  |

Agreed, the analysis on the TV is poor viewing for Johnson. |  |

Nobody has questioned KM all season. FrimleyBlue 19/01/25 But obviously when it’s in the heat of the moment it doesn’t count. [Post edited 19 Jan 20:12]

Interesting tbh. People have raved about his defensive attributes whilst playing his role. Which I've applauded recently. Plus wes himself has come out and confirmed he's played a more defensive role in some fixtures. So yes. Wes is imo a better defensive minded player in that role than Johnson. For me johnson doesn't seem to know how to do the full requirement of that role which was dangerous to put out against doku. We may have got away with that if oshea or axel were playing that rcb slot over godfrey who again is more about getting forward when he's able over defensive solidarity. ( as said by Everton and nodge fans) |  |

Doku has started all 4 goals on 09:17 - Jan 20 with 922 views | grow_our_own | I think I've seen enough of Johnson. He's just too slow to play wing-back. You can get away with no pace in the centre of the pitch, but not defensively out-wide. Left wingers target him as they know they can breeze past. Or Johnson will stand miles off them to compensate, giving them the freedom to pass or shoot, as Doku did yesterday. Johnson has qualities. He's comfortable on the ball and keeps possession well. But his attacking chops doesn't compensate for his defensive frailties. One assist (at City) is outweighed by goals conceded through him. Eg West Ham, Bournemouth's first, etc. He's seeing more minutes than McK would like but for Ogbene's injury, but we need someone else if Burns cannot play two games in three days. West Ham didn't renew Johnson's contract for a reason. I don't think he's Prem quality. When fit, Burns must start. |  | |  |
