Brennan Johnson has become abandoned by Tottenham fans.
British Football Insider said on the 3rd (Korea time) 'Tottenham fans are increasingly losing patience with Johnson, who showed poor performance again against Newcastle. Even with Tottenham's competition for wing positions diminished due to injury problems, 24-year-old Johnson has not been able to take the main job despite being given numerous opportunities under Thomas Frank, the report said.
Johnson is a player who grew up in Nottingham Forest. During Nottingham's England Championship (second division), he drew attention as he led his team to the Premier League (EPL) with 16 goals and nine assists in the league. In the EPL, he also scored eight league goals and three assists, receiving Tottenham's attention and transferring.
After his move to Tottenham, Johnson had his own successful debut season with five goals and 11 assists in his debut season. Johnson became Tottenham's winning hero last season. Johnson, who also showed quite good scoring ability with 11 goals and 5 assists in the league, scored the winning goal in the Europa League (UEL) final against Manchester United. Johnson, who became the benefactor of Son Heung-min's victory, is hated by Tottenham fans this season.
Football Insider 'In May, Johnson from Nottingham was the winner of Tottenham's UEL victory over Manchester United. In the joy of bringing the trophy in a long time, Johnson captivated the fans, but the jubilation didn't last long.
Johnson's biggest problem from the first season is that his influence on the game is very low when there is no offensive point. With only four goals scored in 19 games this season, the shortcomings are being highlighted.
The media outlet said: "'Johnson has not scored a point in the EPL since Aug. 23, which contrasts sharply with his best season of the 2024-2025 season, when he scored 18 goals in all tournaments combined. The expectations and hopes of coach Enze Postecoglou, who showed faith by evaluating him as a potential 'game changer', are also fading away with Johnson's disappointing performance in each game'
Since Johnson is not a cheap player, Tottenham's head is troubled. With the exception of Mohamed Kudus, there is no player who does his part in the winger's position. Johnson, Matisse Tell and Wilson O'Dowbert are all considered young and talented, but they are below expectations on the field.
Considering Football Insider is a player brought from Nottingham for £47.5m (about £93.3bn), Tottenham must be regretting the transfer decision at the time. More concerningly, this is not the first time it has looked like this. Tottenham fans are getting tired of Johnson's continued disappointing performance. 'The contract remains until June 2028, so there is time to spare, but Tottenham may have to seriously consider selling it from the near transfer window in order to recover any amount of money it has poured into Johnson.
