Glen Johnson

[SB]

I thought it was about £135k+ per week and that he'll have to take a pay cut to sign a new deal.

Can't see it happening sadly, so I'd be happy to let him run his contract down if he wants to move abroad at the end of it.

WOW. that's big bucks.

[RedReet]

£135k?!

Yeah if he's got his heart set on a move to Spain then I suppose that's fair enough. It'd be a bit galling to see him play for another PL club though.

A lot saying it's £139k if you look at the first few Google articles, which would maybe explain why he escaped the cull. Can't see many teams affording that for such a specific position.

Glen Johnson has cemented his place and shown his true value to the team while injured, we miss him badly and he can't come back soon enough

[little dave hedgehog]

there is an argument to be made that for that kind of money, you want better than "unbalances the side when he doesn't play ."

Having Glen back will improve us considerably, add a fully fit Coutinho and Agger back into the side and we can only get better.

Agreed mate

[Muddled]

I've got 18 months left and no-one's mentioned anything further to me, so my job is to warrant a new contract.

[RedReet]

Where's that from?

[Muddled]

The Times.

[RedReet]

Why is he going public about his contract though? Was he asked about it?

[RedReet]

Just read the article.

I do think he'll be gone though and Agger.

[Muddled]

Yeah, more in response to rumours about his contract expiring.

[Shaggy]

Also seems ridiculous just a day or so after Ian Ayre said the club policy is to always offer new contracts when a player is down to his last two years.

If he is on the reported £130k per week, it's only worth keeping him if he accepts a pay decrease for a new contract. If not I'm sure there is much more value out there. He's a good right back - but certainley not one of our top performers.
