Johnson will want in excess of £60k a week because that is what would have come along with his price tag at Citeh when he signed for them.

Is it really worth splashing out all those wages on what would probably be a 4 year contract and a transfer fee of £15m+

To be fair not many sides would pay that sort of money. Not many could even if they wanted to. Nobody else will be in for him at that price so why go in with a silly bid over £15m? If they want rid of him offer them £7m on transfer deadline day or take him on a season long loan like Spurs did with Adebayor. This is the business sside of the game. It would free up the funds for other targets.

He shouldn't cost anywhere near 16m. 10-12m tops. City brought him for 6m

Johnson tore Liverpool apart I think year before last when we lost the first game. I don't think he is the LFC type. Don't get me wrong he is talented but he might be a moaner and it seems he has off the field problems.

Sorry forgot to mention a point : unlike downing A.Johnson can keep the ball and has nice control on the ball which will contribute in the improvment of our style of play which relies heavily on keeping possession on the ball unlike downing who is sure to loose the ball whenever he has it.

yep but unlike many players Johnson has a bit of a reputation for liking the 'pop' a little too much and has fell foul of disciplinery action from City all season. Why do you think he has drifted so far away from the first team and even the England squad. Great player but head is not right.
U mean like Ballotelli, and still get's first team call ups.
