Does anyone else agree that he's rank?
Thought he's been really poor during the Group Stages but today he got found out, another poor piece of business by Benitez paying £20m for him. I could name many more players in the England team who were awful but he was the pick of the bunch for me.

That comic otherwise known as The Sun was comparing him equally to Phillip Lahm the other day

He's was a different class before his injury to be fair. As with so many England players, very good at premiership pace, found out for technique at this tournament.

Although I loathe them, John Terry and Ashley Cole used to be quality players.
What has happened to them?

And with regards to the fee? Any internal English transfer automatically should have the fee halved then assessed.

Johnson's much like the rest of the English team, looks good at club level due to being surrounded by other players better than him making up for the fact that he's just an average player. I doubt he's on as much as £100k per week but I can guarantee you it's more than £20k per week, which even then is a ridiculous amount of money for wages.

Even at club level he is often beaten for pace by a no more than average winger and this failing was really shown up against Germany.
As a life long 'Pool supporter I couldn't believe it when Benietz shelled out a reported £20m .
Not really convinced re his temperment either
Very few England players got more the 4/10 yesterday i'm afraid

Johnson is not a full-back. At home he is good going forward in the right midfield and he has an eye for goal. Out in S Africa he was out of his depth.
