I think Johnstone would be a loss, but if they're willing to pay silly money we could consider it.

No one who saw him against Swansea at home would call him "bang average".

That night he was brilliant along with some poor finishing , but one swallow doesn't make a summer .

Anything north of £10m and I’d sell him.

There’s a decent goalkeeper in Johnstone, we’ve seen flashes of brilliance but I think the combination of tactical issues last season, being an ex-Villa player and the ingrained belief of our fans that he’s shit means he’ll probably never reach his potential here.

Bond has looked a capable deputy, but without a steady run of games I’m not sure I’d want to pin our hopes on him.

Yep. Thinking move player perspective. Johnstone settled in area (Sutton Coldfield), so wouldn’t have to move. I wouldn’t be surprised to see them try and sign Gibbs too.

Are you sure?  He was living in a hotel for much of the season.

Ziz has been watching him through a telephoto lens and following him home after training.

To be fair, he might be settled in a hotel, in Sutton Coldfield.   Big Grin

Ziz, if this is true and Appleton actually gets to spend the money - I would take  anything over 8 million
