Blatter Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Can’t say I’m surprised if his attitude is somewhat lacking at times. He started the season un registered and frozen out. Then brought back in but refused a move elswhere and to top it all he’s always played as a winger/wing back but yesterday played as a full back in a back four. There’s little wonder his defending and his commitment are lacking really. Anyway I wouldn’t single him out, the whole team were poor yesterday, right from keeper to strikers .

Arootatat Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 He has been very good since coming back but I think his last 3 or 4 games he hasn't played well at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were all poor, every single one of them. This A bad day at the office for all, including Danny. Against a team in second place that can score plenty when they’re “on it”. So, yeah, let’s get a posse together and run someone out of town. This weeks candidate is Johnson FFS. Imagine if Johnson had looked happy all game and was all smiles- then what? He’d be accused of not taking it seriously and have no commitment etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanharper Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Looking for the threads slating Johnson (or any player) after the Plymouth game when we'd won 4 in a row. Can't find any. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
island owl Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Johnson has not been at his best for the last four or five games, lets his man go, turns his back on crosses and doesn't get back if beaten. Like others say it is a team game but everyone needs to play well to gain a victory. Hope he comes good , we haven't a lot of options 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just the way I see things I'm sure I will get a barrage of MJ lovers......

Barnsleyowl1996 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Not sure what people expect , think he’s quite a laidback character that’s all. he’s been great this season and if We stop him he’s a massive reason . He’s not an outstanding player but a real solid performer with good energy and a very decent left foot . Always fit too . Shame he’s 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sefton owl Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Maybe just had a poor one off day like the rest of the team,all players have them. Generally speaking since Christmas we have done quite well, bar this and the Huddersfield result. Had our 2 toughest games of the season in the last week or so, if you would have told me back in October that we would be 1 result away from getting out the bottom 3 I would have snatched your hand off 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debram Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Better off and much more effective as a wingback, probably frustrated in the left back role with gassam or musaba prancing in front of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerson Thome Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Never met him, but always appears to me like a chilled, level-headed guy who responds to life's great triumphs and disappointments with a shrug of the shoulders and rueful smile. His body language looked no different than the other 100 games he's played - where he has, by and large, been excellent. Clearly one of our best players over the past 3 years. So, if the OP is asking about his attitude on the pitch - for three years his attitude has to be one of our fittest, players, best performers, top goal creators and part of a record-breaking number of clean sheets.

1952Owl Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Ipswich would be saying "thank the lord" we didn't sign him! I was Marv biggest critic earlier in the season. Then Danny got Marv really ticking until the last 2 games against top sides. In fact he looked poor. And yet, I half thought Marv woukd go to Ipswich, play a blinder, score a blinder.... and Ipswich weap at missing out on him in January. Most of us still wonder why Reece James has not been picked as a much better defensive left back? What about...... Iorfa - Ihiekwe - Bernard - JAMES Palmer Vaulks Poveda Bannan Marv Ugbo Gassama (or Windass) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Crawshaw Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 I don't think he enjoys defending at all. He said as much when DM played him at left back, that it's not his game. It's obvious that he's better in the attacking half of the pitch. That's were he does all his best work for us and that's were he should be playing. It's a waste having him at left back.
