As many have said: whatever Johnson's failings defensively, put him in a deep lying defence, designed to pander to Carra's lack of pace, with PFK in there as well, and things are likely to look pretty bad for most players of an attacking nature. Have Carra shout at everyone so that his mistakes and weaknesses will be less apparent, by keeping his FBs as deep as possible, and that should pretty much destroy the self-belief, composure, and tactical certainty of the vast majority of players. This is no more than us banging our heads against a brick wall though. Roy is not going to change. He doesn't see the game we see. For him, nothing has changed, or needed to change, in the last 35 years of football. If he does dare, or get persuaded into playing a higher pressing game now and again, it won't last. Deep defence, static full backs, hoofing centre backs are his default mode. No way someone can successfully adopt a new philosophy, style and tactical language at his time of life. Therefore, Johnson, Agger, and anyone else who might not be suited to his corpse of a tactical system, will not prosper, ever.
