However towards the end of the season when he did start or came on he looked a lot slower and leggy. It really did show when the game transitioned, he struggled to keep up or get back.
I m told that he is still not 100%. Maybe he would be better suited to drop back into defence.
IMO unless he's 100% then he doesn't start.

I reckon he would gave been released and paid up otherwise. GJ will have his priorities to fill elsewhere in my opinion, and another gk to come in, just as an option.
I'm usually wrong, but it's just an opinion hold. I believe he will Give Halstead a chance to shine, before replacing him

I can imagine that Johnson has a number 2 choice for each position he thinks needs covered working on the principle that he will lose a few by leaving it so late, Judging by other clubs we are only of two clubs in the league that have this dubious strategy , I personally think its a mistake but on the other hand I do not run a football club, we are undoubtedly heading for another mass signing afternoon as if last years was not cringeworthy enough, and those signings didnt exactly fill us with confidence rightly so as it turned out.
