He's missed less games due to hamstring injuries than van de Ven has..
But he's had many other injuries as well. And he got lucky with the last hamstring injury as it was in the end of the season

That cvnt Archibald &Crookes banned me for the weakest misdemeanor ever.
Getting banned from SC is basically a rite of passage. Mine was for calling out that fraud Hercules. It was the summer of 2018 he kept going on about about Levy's war chest, this was it, finally the summer we were gonna spend big, blah blah. Of course then we ended up spending nothing in the entire window.

Hercules is the worst one on there but he’s hero worshipped by the SC posters for some reason

A prize cunt imv!

Horrific injury record, especially for a player who relies on his explosiveness. We're so stupid if we buy this guy, asking for trouble.
 
No literally all players mature at different ages, football is littered with them do your research...there's no hard and fast rule when a player is meant to suddenly his his strike and players generally reach their peak around 28 anyway.

I'm not even that hot on Johnson but there's so much nonsense spoke about him, give the guy a chance, we all know his deficiencies, he's at the right club to work on them.

Boring convo.
Thing is we don’t have that sort of spending power to splunk £50M on a player with deficiencies. The only thing a player that value should do is make sure their ability gets them in the team and stay there! The fact we are looking to improve the frontline based on what Ange said then it is worrying.
 
Is it coincidental that the same players always come up with assists, even the easy ones?
I think not.
Goals scored and assists are the most accurate measure of an attacking player's worth.
It is not a coincidence that Harry Kane and Son have regularly been our most prolific G/A guys.
Yes the pass Kane did for son from our own half is an assist in terms of actually creating something out of nothing.
