As far as Johnson is concerned though it is not his tackleing which is poor it is his distribution after the tackle. He is a good player that there is no need to replace.

LagosShrimper (U6540724) posted Jul 28, 2008 Was a completely meaningless exhibition match in front of a 1/3 full 60,000 capacity National Stadium - fine for the expats and those nutters who made the trip from the UK but for the majority of locals the tickets were priced out of their reach. Am sure it would have been a much better spectacle in front of a full house. The Nigerians are mad for the Premier League and especially Man U, Chelsea & Arsenal - shame it did not live up to expectations for them, though my driver thought it was a beautiful game. David James tried hard to live up to his calamity tag in the 2nd half.
