What have we ever done to him?!

[Ginger Ninja]

Fair play. Did ok at the start of last season, hopefully he can stay injury free for more than 5 games this season :-)

[Tarbie]

Fair play to him.

Not convinced his body is up to professional football anymore but there is nothing wrong with Johnson's attitude!

Watching him last night i was cringing when someone went in for the tackle.
My nerves would be shot if he's named a striker in the squad. Just waiting for his knee to snapp every game and every tackle.

[QPRWEBBIE]

If only he could stay fit,he would score plenty this season

Yeah, somebody posted his recent injury history on here the other day, worrying amount of games missed for knee related injuries. Seeing us sign players like him and Zamora make me wonder what we are actually checking for in our medicals.

The truth is though, that ACL reconstruction surgery now actually makes the knee joint stronger than pre injury, as more tendon is used to replace the torn ligament.

So, if proper physio carried out, the knee can withstand a lot more punishment than before.

Not convinced he'll be that good but hope I'm proved wrong as he seems to have the right attitude

Still waiting to hear from the Adel haters ,who they think will be the creative spark to replace him?!

Personally can't see 1 current member to do that job, still lets keep on the honest pro's and finish bottom half.

QPR stood by me last season and I will stand by them this season. I am now looking to fire us back to the Premier League."

That's the kind of attitude more players could do with i.e. Jenas and Remy if he stays and is cleared in Sept.

As for creativity in the side, last night's game showed that Taarabt is about the only player in the current squad capable of creating chances out of nothing. Without him or a similar player, QPR will struggle next season, especially if Remy is sold (or convicted).

Ridiculous how many times he said it.
