maplebanana Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Johnston interviews are so enjoyable to listen to. He has gone from 'who?' to one of my top 5 favorite players on the national team in under 12 months. johnyb, costarg, GasPed and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who cares if he drinks the blood of infant humans before every match? A lad's got to do what a lad's got to do.

maplebanana Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I forgot if this was mentioned previously, but in this interview he also mentions he has a younger (21) brother Malcolm, who was 'more advanced at each age' than he was. He's currently the captain of the Maryland Terrapins team and plays DM. johnyb, Xavier., Addona and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just re-listened. Says he can play multiple positions, but is a CM at heart. Alistair also mentions wingback and inverted winger. Shoutout to @VinceA for asking the question to the podcast.

So, he's looking at management type positions in the sport. Or he's also open to be involved in the sport via the media - sees himself doing CPL matches as a starting point.

Kent Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 He had a huge stop inside the first 2 minutes of the game. They never showed a replay, but live it looked like 2 guys wide open in front of the net, but he was able to catch up to his man and slide in to block the cross. To be fair, his man got that foot or two of space on him in the first place, but Johnston quickly fixed the problem!

EJsens1 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 (edited) I thought he looked a bit rusty on a couple plays, but that is understandable. Played a solid game overall though, which is basically what he does game in, game out. He didn’t see as much action the second half as Honduras were trying to go through Elis(who was easily their most dangerous player IMO) constantly on the opposite side.

When it happened I thought it was going to end up being a tap in for them, absolutely huge tackle from Johnston there. It’s nice to finally be confident in our defenders. johnyb and Grandbloke 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miche Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Stellar once again. Just so smart. Defensive awareness. Composed.
