Playing in the MLS for Portland Timbers at the moment. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddie_Johnson_(English_footballer)
We're a club that sucks the confidence and talent out of players...if you're a confidence player, don't come to City!!
He was a dreadful player, not just here but elsewhere in England too. Another one some idiots got excited about just because he was at Manure as a youngster. A poor man's Gareth Evans, and that's saying something! I almost cried when Turd went back on signing Beckett at the last minute to sign this lad instead. Oh, how I was proved right.
When lads come from united to bradford, it is a completey different game! everything they have learnt in their youth is to set them up for top level football, then they come to lower league clubs where much of what they have learnt is completely over looked and not needed! fair play to the lad, struggling in miserable bradford at the bottom of league 2 or enjoying life in the sun in a league that tries to play football!
Aye, you're right like, but its the same with any top club and therefore we shouldnt expect him to do the business for us just becaue he come from Manures youth. I agree, I bet hes miles happier over there in the sunshine. Who wouldnt be?
I know, the likes of Beckham, Kean and Donavon have it made dont they! semi retire to the sun on more money they would get over here in a league they can stroll in and then just come back to the premier league for a couple of months a year without the pressure! cant be bad!
