Brennan Johnson

[Eagleman13]

Olise was signed in early July, the 'Window' closed at the end of August.

Willo, dear chap. Re Brennan Johnson, when was the last time we had a Welsh full international on our books?

Welcome to South London Brennan. Looking forward to seeing that pace and goal scoring prowess in a Palace shirt.
Shortest signing video ever so I assume Ollie insisted on some training this afternoon ahead of the trip to Sandcastle!

Carl Fletcher, Jonny Williams, Joe Ledley, Adolf Hennessey.

There’s a few off the top of my head

Interesting tattoo on his arm!

So short you didn't see the other thread

I was a big fan of Ledley and felt he could have had more minutes. Danny Gabbidon also did well for us in that newly promoted team.

Does he get his tattooist to practise on one arm so the masterpieces emerge on the other?

Frank sidelined him so If he wasn't good enough for Spurs, what makes him good enough for Palace?

His move has attracted plenty of positive comments so I just hope he can live up to the hype. We sure need someone to relight the bloomin' fuse.

I think it's more a case of him not being suitable for Frank's system and Spurs need the money for reinforcements.

The modern game is all about pace and fast movement. With Wharton and Kamada moving quick through balls Johnson, Sarr and Munoz should have a field day with Mateta in the middle to mop it all up!!.
Im expecting our form to return by the end of January when hopefully all our top players will be back.
If Guehi stays, which is likely, could be a good few months ahead.
We still need two more quality players as discussed.
If Johnson slots in well, things will be bright.

Hope you're right.

Maybe he does them himself and is obviously right-handed. The Bart Simpson one looks like the Andy Capp tattoo kids used to get in Borstal.

Frank, must have his reasons for moving Johnson on. How often does a premier league player with eighteen goals in a season to his credit become available, let alone end up with Palace?

No. I think the fact that the other thread was posted 5 minutes after this one might have something to do with it though!

It started before Christmas

I live in a household full of spurs fans and they are largely gutted. He is their hero from the Europa final and they adore him. Told them he's moved to a bigger club of course 😀

Really encouraging signing. I just hope people are not expecting an Olise or Eze because Brennan is not that at all.

I really like the Andrew Johnson comparison that is actually who he reminds me of a little bit, even tho he's not an out and out striker, more a wide forward

Marco Gabbiadini was a club record signing way back when.
Christian Benteke was also a club record signing.
Here's to third time lucky with Brennan Johnson!

 

[Stirlingsays]

Pacey forward with an eye for a goal.

Can go missing in games but is suited to fast breaks.....which is a Palace set up.

24 years old on a four and a half year contract.....So looking to sell him at 27 while still good resell potential.

I think it's an intelligent purchase.

Is this our best ever start to a transfer window? Great signing 👏

A touch early. He hasn't put his boots on yet. We could be looking at another Nketiah in a year's time. Lerma on a free on July 1st was a more sure thing

I'll be amazed if they don't activate the year extension.

A waste of money.

Leeks for eyebrows.

Rak-Saki and Esse much better than him.

Welcome to Palace Brennan.
