Will mcgoo go if the twats are relegated.I wouldn't think so because who would want him.They only have him as he is cheap.

Don't you have a motorway to go and play on?

I do not have a problem with palace players being capped for any country if they are good enough.

There are 3 problems with AJ that cast doubt on his suitability.

The penalties Ive seen him win are for diving, 9 goals from open play are not many when you play for a limited team and become the main focus for service from midfield(Remember BZ?).

Less than one season is not long enough.

He does need to play for a bigger club to see what he's made of.

I remember watching Bellamy play for Norwich and he didn't fit in cos he was to quick for the rest of the team, he's now found his level.

I pretty much agree with Looney.

Johnson may be having a good season, but he HAS only scored 9 goals from open play. He may have won most of the penalties that he's scored, but that doesn't necessarily mean he was going to score anyway.

There are loads of players down the years that have had good seasons or proven to be good league players but have never really made it on the international stage. Look at Beattie. Or Phillips, he was banging them in for fun but was never quite good enough internationally.

Having said that, he should at least be given a chance and seeing as friendlies are now utterly pointless wastes of time, the games against N.Ireland and Azerbaijan- games which, lets be honest, are bankers- would have been a perfect opportunity to test him out. Even if he played like an absolute donkey, he wouldn't cost us a win.

So it's a shame he's got injured.

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

to be fair though this was 9 goals for palace in open play. apart from the chelsea match he does almost take every chance hes given and anyone who can score for palace as aloan striker is quite talented. agree that the freindly was pointless in showing what he could do.

Are you having a laugh Tommy?

With that Muppett in the side I would not be able to cheer if he scored! I hope it means he misses the rest of the season too.

You should put your pride behind you when it comes to England and cheer the team no matter what. What complete and utter load of rubbish you are talking. If AJ scored the winner in a world cup final, are you saying you would just sit in your chair and do nothing. Yaeh right sure you would. So shut up you muppet.

 

[Croydonbloke]

Johnson is a good player who would have played well for England. I reckon the England team needs all the help it can get.

England and Brighton alike Spicy!!!!

 

[Schrödinger's Toad]

johnson is the top english goalscorer this season.......and is a very good player

should be given a good chance imo

Surely Defoe has more with 21?

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

Surely Defoe has more with 21?

top premiership goalscorers

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Shearer's only got 7 this season? That's pretty crap.

 

[Fulton]

Andy Johnson= One season wonder. I'd rather see Kevin Phillips, another former one season wonder picked.

[Don't sink to the level of the f***ing masochistic clowns from the Croydon area that are compelled to write drivel on here day in and day out.

Calm down blokemeister.

 

[Parson Henry]

Well I might pop over the border to Thornton Heath later on and get a couple of cans in.

Clappers that will be strong for you. Stick to the Campari and soda..

 

[Parson Henry]

Croydon isn't even in England. Which loop hole does Sven use to get Johnson in the squad in the first place ?

OI!!!!

 

[Croydonbloke]

Calm down blokemeister.

I was calm Perry just my point of view. How are ya? and are you Going to Coventry then?
