Andrew Johnson

West Ham have ''dropped out'' of the race for Ashton after secretly agreeing to a £5m move for Andrew Johnson - all will become apparent!

If £5m gets Johnson can''t see Deano going for much more, he will go if he feels his career would be better served away from Carrow Rd.

what, like wigan have secretly agreed a move for ashton?

how many clubs supposedly agreed deals for ashton in the summer only for it to turn out to be 100% rubbish?

and besides, i actually think you would have to physically drag johnson out of the clutches of simon jordan!

if he does go for 5m what chance have we of getting 6 for deano, let alone more!

Johnson = quick, good finisher, good at penalties.   £5million??

Ashton= good header, immense fnisher, links up with the midfield(in a team that has one), 3 years younger, holds up the ball. surely worth more.

After 3 years in the Prem. Ashton would be twice the player Johnson is. He could have an England career as England are short of ''traditionally English'' strikers. No-one to hold up the ball or win it in the air, Johnson would always be kept out of the team by Owen/Rooney/Defoe/Vassell, Ashton would easily overtake Crouch in the pecking order.

And you think diver Johnsons worth more??

potentially ashton is worth more, but at this present time, i would put them in the same price bracket. but i wont believe that little rumour for a second. even though i would love it to happen!
