Seriously?
Why?
He gets stuck in and scores goals. So why is he on Hull and not us? How come we never try and land a decent, non-sexy forward?
He has looked brilliant recently, and where Lennon is unfortunately looking a little one dimensional, Johnson has a bit more about him. In effect as he knows the Prem he would bed in quickly too. Think we could do worse.
In a shit league!!
@TwanYid Loldado? Really? Are you a fucking child.
We've got enough inconsistent wingers, without adding another to the ranks.I'd like to see us go for Adam Johnson.
I'm more worried at the "let's all laugh at club name" threads on this site, when we seem to be the jokers
I agree with your general point, there is a bit of arrogance about who is or isn't good enough to okay for the mighty Spurs. Daniel Sturridge being the prime example.
There is a difference in playing for a big club though, in that so much more is expected of you, unlike say Hull, where as long as you put a shift in and keep them up, that's good enough.
Our problem imo is we seem to buy players with little regard for the league they will be playing in and the suitability to fit in with the team.
That and the fact that we very rarely pay market value for strikers (unless we are threatened with relegation or have £85million burning a hole in our pocket).
I think he offers something the others don't though. Obviously he would have to keep this current form up until the summer, but if he realises his potential he'll be a very good player.We've got enough inconsistent wingers, without adding another to the ranks.

I think you have to give Gus Poyet major credit for turning Johnson back into the player many thought he could be. I think he could do the same for Lamela, who's a similar player IMO, maybe even more gifted. Poyet would certainly be a major contender for our next Manager if it was up to me, with the added plus of, along with Taricco, both being former fan favourites at The Lane.He has looked brilliant recently, and where Lennon is unfortunately looking a little one dimensional, Johnson has a bit more about him.
