Player Watch Player Watch: Brennan Johnson

[faze_coys]

I think he’ll turn out to be a Lucas type player for us, just no where near as good.

 

[Mr Pink]

This guy will be a sensation.

Once the confidence grows we have a special player on our hands

 

[Westmorlandspur]

willing to give him time, but did expect more considering the fee we paid

Don’t judge a player on his price. He doesn’t set it. Very few players are good value for huge transfer fees.
Chelsea have 2 or 3.

 

[Gassin's finest]

Just needs to start finishing those chances, and getting his head up before those cut backs. He gets into terrific positions and busts a gut at every opportunity. He could have had a bunch of goals so far this season.

 

[JoaoPereira]

my god, is he frustrating... very poorly composed in the last third. in space, playing under their backline he'll do fine but with the backline in front of him, it's a struggle.

 

[SDogg]

Can we trust CDogg? That is the question

No relation 🫣

I'm surprised at the negative reactions, I thought he was silky last night, especially his control. If I was a scout I'd have signed him at Forest and now watching him at spurs I'm certain he's going to be class.

Noticed him tracking back as well yesterday (obviously something he's not used to).

He just needs a bit of luck and not to lose his confidence and I think he will be a major player for us.

Nailed on starter for us now. He has massive potential.

 

[Timbo Tottenham]

Plays better on the right than on the left as he’s more likely to fizz a first time pass/cross, as he did almost immediately when he moved their last night and for Richy’s goal the other day.

It didn’t quite work for him last night, but you can see the potential there.

 

[sidford]

Needs a spell on bench. Hopefully few players back will mean he can be taken out of starting 11 and coaches can work on his confidence. Offers very little at the minute. Never looks like doing anything with the ball when he has it other than the safe option.

 

[Nerine]

Johnson was a bit Johnson today, unfortunately.

 

[King of the Lane]

Ive defended him since he has been here as he has been involved in a lot of our dangerous play...but im starting to get a bit concerned. He is very weak, doesnt take his man on or use his pace like he should do and always seems to stop and pass it back. It is still early days and I am sure he is finding his feet but todays performance is why I was so concerned when we signed him.

Imagine hes played too much like the rest of the squad. Would benefit from a few sub appearances against tired legs.

 

[JoaoPereira]

genuinely hard to do much worse than he did today. it's one thing to be an absolute void of creativity. it's another to constantly lose focus on the game, be second to every ball and fail to read almost every progression. woeful is an understatement. if he can't make things happen on the last third, I at least expect some commitment, effort, engagement and assertiveness in the other phases of play.

 

[WhiteStripe]

The most tepid of tepid players

 

[TommyW]

He's so frustrating. We've got a winger that doesn't want to take his man on. The only time he runs is if the ball is played over the top

 

[Typical Spurs]

This guy will be a sensation.

Once the confidence grows we have a special player on our hands

I couldn't disagree more. I think he's average at best.

But I respect your opinion. My old man likes him too. I just don't see it at all.

 

[Yiddo100]

Still young, still raw in his first season with us, would like to see more but can see he’s got something. Maybe he’s starting more than everyone imagined with all the injuries.
More patience, more improvement and he’ll be a good player.

 

[Wheeler Dealer]

He’s a major disappointment. Contributed fuck all today. Appears to be a complete girls blouse of a player.

 

[fuzzylogic]

Didn't fancy a few challenges today and I've noticed it a few time before, really dislike that in a player.

 

[tubbygold]

Similar to Gil in my eyes, time will tell if he’ll raise his game.
