Ex-Spurs Player Brennan Johnson

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

He was fucking woeful but I agree, he used his left a few times and put some good balls in…. He is what he is. Anonymous, basic and lazy but with flashes of match winning quality. I prefer him to Odobert. I would start him and move Kudus left, with two forwards

I at least want to give Odobert a chance to grow. We know what we have in Johnson; I think Odobert may have more in him, given his tools and age. It was foolish to keep both him and Tel in the squad—at least one should have been loaned.
 
Johnson + cash for Anderson
Is that a transfer fee, or compensation??

Johnson is the 2025 Allan Nielsen & Jonathan Woodgate...

Not great players, but all scored the winning goal in a Cup final, so I've absolutely no hard feelings towards any of them!

They have their place in the History books for one reason alone....
That's good enough for me.

Let's not give him a rough ride now, but welcome him back politely when Paul Coyte wheels him out at HT in the 2045 season 20th Anniversary Celebration!!!
 
It’s a very small, meaningless sample size/curiosity the same way the losing streak with Bale was meaningless.

We drew that game last night because of two goals when he was off the fucking pitch, yet it will be included.

Do you or anyone else genuinely believe the Brennan of this season is influencing wins? By doing what, not scoring, not assisting and not taking his man on?!
Just taking the piss out of Johnson critics who have allowed their opinions of him, and the extremist nature of internet arguments, to lead them to make silly statements like goals are just stats and football is more than winning.

It's a game whose object is strictly scoring more goals than your opponents. Its like contending how many times a player checkmates their opponent in chess is just a stat and what really matters is how you've moved your pawns about.

If Chess was 11 on 11 then I'd agree. Brennan is the H pawn that gets promoted one of 10 games.
 
I hear this pish he scores goals and he’s effective. If you are footballer and you are anonymous for 99% of the game and offer fuck all then that is not effective even if he scores. The person that plays instead of him might not score but be in the game and contribute.
Frank does not rate him at all.
 
Johnson shit again ole ole

We don't hear any songs at home.

Definitely not ones about the guy who doesn’t score, doesn’t assist, doesn’t dribble, doesn’t work very hard but did have a ball bobble off him and dribble over the line in a final.

The guy is outshined for Wales by Harry Wilson - both in the premier league and in the championship. If he went down to a championship team he’d be at a similar level to the guy who he competes with for his NT, sorba Thomas.
 


Yep, a goal compilation of mostly tap ins, a majority of which are against lower league, now relegated or farmer opposition.

Now he’s not being spoon fed at the back post, what does he offer? What did he do against Newcastle that a league one level wide player could not do?

Less than 1 expected assists, 2 whole goals, and he ghosts his way through matches. What are you actually defending anymore?
