August 25, 200619 yr Who'd you sooner we bought? I really wanted Johnson, he works hard & is a goal-scorer. BUT, is he the same class as Anelka? Wonder who'll score more by the end of the season...........
August 25, 200619 yr Anelka every time. He was half a mil cheaper, and has played at a decent level for nearly 10 years. Where as Johnson had 1 year of top flight football.
August 25, 200619 yr Anelka any day over Johnson, Johnson will score about 10 - 15 goals Anelka will bag 15 - 20 Goals this season
August 25, 200619 yr no real difference between em for me! thinks they'll turn out pretty similar over the season but Anelka was 1/2 a mil cheeper!
August 25, 200619 yr Has to be Anelka for me. Proven record at the top level and we will get ??5M minimum back for him if he proves to be shit. Where as Johnson, if he fails, Everton will be lucky to get ??1M back (aka Mackan from City to Palace)
August 25, 200619 yr as an actual footballer, johnson not even close to being at the same level as anelka.
August 25, 200619 yr Don't mean to knock you AS, but it's a silly post really. Considering AJ turned us down, almost everyone would say no to him as we have signed Anelka and people will say 'yes' to le sulk.
August 25, 200619 yr as an actual footballer, johnson not even close to being at the same level as anelka. Spot on in terms of ability, but the unknown factor is anelkas's attitude, whereas johnson will pull hs tripe out for everton, it must be remembered johnson has played about 10 games for everton and in my opinion still has not scored, i said he was average and i think he is proving me right.
August 25, 200619 yr I probably now have a slightley biased opinion as Anelka is our player and Johnson turned us down. But I recon that before either of them had signed for anyone if you had said to me who would you prefer at Bolton Johnson or Anelka? I would have said Anelka. Johnson is a good player but Anelka is different class.
August 25, 200619 yr no real difference between em for me! Blimey Frank I usually think the things you say are sensible :p Just remind me when exactly was AJ's spell at Real Madrid cos I missed that one
August 25, 200619 yr Both will score goals, But Anelka will be playin in a half empty stadium(judging by the opening game) and they arent going to win any trophies. he'll fcuk off in a year!! If he was unhappy and miserable at City Real Madrid, Arsenal, Liverpool, what makes anyone think he can settle anywere! Similar class, but different packages! Be interesting to read all the posts about Anelka when he played for City!
August 25, 200619 yr Similar class, but different packages! bolox anelka has twice the talent of johnson
August 25, 200619 yr Although I have lots of reserves about him as a person its still Anelka for me, done it with every club in the Premiership, AJ has only done it once.
August 25, 200619 yr AJ has only done it once. Blimey even I have done it more than that . . . mind you I was drunk most of them so I cannot remember
August 25, 200619 yr Both will score goals, But Anelka will be playin in a half empty stadium(judging by the opening game) and they arent going to win any trophies. he'll fcuk off in a year!!

Be interesting to read all the posts about Anelka when he played for City! Fishing again. Those Bolton blues never give up.

Be interesting to read all the posts about Anelka when he played for City! He didn't leave Real or Liverpool of his own accord And even Distin and the like realise City are going nowhere fast
August 25, 200619 yr Too easy!!! Even your manager prefered Andy Johnson first....Nic Anelka was 2nd choice, remember that!
August 25, 200619 yr Anelka wasn't available when we were after Johnson. We actually went after Anelka first but were originally told that he would cost around ??15m. For the same money would you prefer... Player A who has played has been sold for a total of over ??50m and played at Real Madrid, Liverpool and PSG or Player B who was swapped for Clinton Morrisson Tough choice I know! Edited August 25, 200619 yr by wiggy
August 25, 200619 yr Anelka has been available for 8 months you dimlo, we were linked with him. Like a woman scorned you lot! Plus, being sold as you put is not a good point! Edited August 25, 200619 yr by Pablo

A lad with all the medals you could want or a lad with one season of top flight football? Only one winner in this argument Pablo, we are the new force in English football, not you tired old crap players crap manager clapped out stadium mofo's
August 25, 200619 yr Plus, being sold as you put is not a good point! Better than being swapped because no-one will buy you!
August 25, 200619 yr I get the feeling here that nobody rates Clinton.. He always puts in lots of effort despite having the accuracy of a sawn-off bazooka.
Who'd you sooner we bought?
I really wanted Johnson, he works hard & is a goal-scorer. BUT, is he the same class as Anelka?
Wonder who'll score more by the end of the season...........
