The verdict

This was another really strong performance from Johnson, who is enjoying an excellent campaign where he is fully establishing himself as one of the Reds’ most important players.

Cooper seems to be the perfect kind of manager for Johnson to grow under given his record with developing young and talented players. It is no surprise to see the attacker hit the ground running under his new manager and he should only get better as the season progresses.

Johnson needs to continue to get himself into good positions in the final third and if he can do that then he has already shown he has the ability to finish off chances.

While he is also a player that can drive forwards with the ball and commit defenders to make space for other players in the Reds’ attack. That is something he perhaps needs to show a little more often with him having the potential to get even more assists and goals than he has so far.
