I am just hoping this to toughen him up a bit as I am tired of watching a 6'1 lightning quick forward constant get beat in the air and pushed off the ball. Yes he did enjoy that magical run during his first national call up but has only scored 3 goals sense then and that is unacceptable. All in all though, Johnson should supply that lethal striker mentality that Fulham need until McBride returns (3 weeks is the talk at Fulham). My biggest question is how will Johnson's exit effect the MLS (*sniff sniff* smells like a blog approaching) In regards to only having Americans in the championship, lets not forget about Tim Howard at Everton and Jonathon Spector at West Ham. I will also go so far as to say that the likes of Dempsey, Bocanegra and Johnson would be quickly snatched up by other EPL clubs if Fulham were to drop.

This Tony guy and Micah are very tough on him. The guy still holds the US record for most goals in his 1st 7 National team appearances - with 8 goals - I'd take that many goals in an indoor season. Dempsey leads the team with 6 goals - I say EJ leads Fulham in goals by the end of the campaign. I think EJ will do very well over there. This Tony guy and Micah are very tough on him.

It'd be a shame for all of them to be in the Championship next season. I just wish American field players could get off of relegation-zone clubs.
