Let's get a few things clear:
defence
Carragher's career coming to an end
Skrtle rubbish, always has been
Agger, the jury's still out
Kelly and Coates in centre when both fit and ready
Midfield
Gerrard coming up 32/33
Lucas, you really think this lad is our future?
Henderson, you really think this lad is our future?
These two with Adam and Downing? Come on, is this really a world class midfield?? I don't think so!
Johnson must play in midfield with Gerrard when both fit.
Forwards
Kuyt must now be a sub every week
Must give Suarez the freedom role
Play Carroll, he cost 35 million, play him!!
Our huge expectations are our downfall, we are still a job in progress.
wake up, smell the coffee!!

"You talk Sh***"
Charming. I am merely pointing out that all these people have worked with Johnson, all probably have tried him on the right wing in training, where the experimenting is done, though this rarely lead to Glen starting on the right.
As you point out, the skill and ability of those who have managed Johnson varies widely, though the common perception that Johnson can not play there is unanimous.
Yes, I do believe you should "bow down" to superiors to an extent, though not always. You ought to realise that people will think you know nothing about football when you feel you know better than a string of managers who have 18 league titles and 10 European trophys (including 3 champions leagues) across all tiers of English football and spanning 6 countries.

3mustgetbeers, ye, but do you think he is better going forward or as a defender?? make a decision fella.
I'm not saying I know more than them, it's my opinion!!
Fine, you don't like it. I could write loads about how good they are. Then you would probably disagree with that!!

He is better offensively than defensively. This doesn't make him a right winger.
Applying your logic; you point out our defence is terrible and Carroll must play cause he was £35m. Stick him at CB because he's good at heading, ergo will make a good defender.

You say I make your blood boil, to be honest I dont have a view on you, because I don't have any respect for you or your articles content. You've also only just started writing articles which makes me rather suspicious that you are a wum.
Try writing something positive about the club you say you support or at least balance your article and I might take you seriously.

nope, just saying if you pay 35 million for a fella, then ye, we should play him. Or has Dalglish made a blunder??? oh my, god forbid!!
Or, maybe we could play Lucas there, cause he's so great!!

Johnson played in the RW position at Portsmouth and looked qoite good, but he is far better playing as offensive RB.
Often space in the modern game is given to fullbacks and good enough players can exploit it. This is why Johnson on his game looks great driving forward with the ball from this position When he is being marked by a quality LB. I don't it will work.
This is why given the system Kenny is using I would like to see Gerrard playing on the right.With Downing providing width on the left and Johnson bombing on from RB.
The only question is he fit enough or willing enough to play 'the 'graveyard shift'. Playing this role he scored over 20 goals a few seasons back.

A price tag doesn't determine a players ability. Other factors are taken into account - in the case of Carroll; his importance to Newcastle (i.e. value), the last minute timing of the transfer, his importance to us (no other real no.9), the fact he is British and his age are all contributing factors. I do not for one minute think he is worth the £35m, and I certainly do not think a starting 11 should be dictated by a receipt.
My suggestion is that players play in their position, so no, I don't think Lucas should play anywhere else but CM.
