Anyone know if there was a sell on clause when we sold him to Brum? Sunderland have just been quoted £14million for him. Worth every penny in my eyes
I think we only got extras when Brum stayed up over 3 seasons so we are £1/2m down after their relegation.
Not sure if I'd pay £14m for a defender unproven at European level. I can imagine Roger being a huge success at a Champions League club though Why hasn't he been capped yet?
Cardiiff should have sold Ledley & McCormack & hung on to Johnson back then . You could tell Johnson , even though moving to the Premier , was still a bit upset with leaving Cardiff . Seems a terrific guy & superb defender & wish we could have him
do you actually think johnson will go for that sort of money? i'd say a more realistic fee would be around half that. he's a good defender, but remember he was good for birminghams first season, then they got relegated. from what i've seen on MOTD, he didnt particularly stand out at all. if thats what £14m buys you nowadays, god help us all.
Hey Swamp, I think £7m would be about the mark. We will see what they get. i think they are aiming that eye because Arsenal and Liverpool have been looking at him.
