So many omens, being named close to Johnstone, the goal snatching prowess from close in, back to goal, from distance or running through one-on-one, he scored them all. I don't know why it all dried up, probably the biggest unanswered question of the season. Lately he hasn't had any service to talk of and, when he has, he's missed.
So, is he the new Jimmy Greaves which we're somehow managing to misuse - or is he a one hit wonder?
I vote to keep him and pay a lot to do it, but I'm not confident we'll ever see that magic streak again.

Keep 100%. Lack of service this season and still scored a fair few. I think he is just having a bit of a bad spell but a good rest will hopefully do the trick. I hope his bad spell has put a few off and we keep him as I think he could be the player to take us up. If we get another striker to take a little load off then we are going places. Would hate to have a completely new strike force going into the new season.

I think that if you don't want to keep a 20 goal a season striker then something isn't quite right.
Regardless of whether they were scored at the start, end, or spread evenly out over a season. 20 goals is 20 goals.
I have a feeling he'll return to the North though.

Got to keep him
Didn't look the same after his injury and to still score 20 goals is good going.
His awareness and speed of thought in the box is superb
Really hope he stays but won’t be surprised if he moves on.

I vote to keep him and pay a lot to do it, but I'm not confident we'll ever see that magic streak again. Did the service really dry up? Seem to recall his goals to chances ratio early on was quite exceptional. Latterly he seemed to miss chances that he once seemed to get. But after his injury so probably lost that extra edge. Understandable. Dont think service to him was ever that good. Makes you wonder what he could have done with great service. For that reason I feel other clubs will be very interested. obviously a keep from me. |

Showed in the first half of the season that he is an excellent finisher. Form tailed off after injury in the new year and appears to cut a frustrated figure recently since McAnuff has taken over and altered the system somewhat. Personally I would very much like him to stay but think the odds are he will be on the move elsewhere. Hope I’m wrong.

Scored some fantastic goals that other clubs will have taken note of. We were reportedly in with a new contract well before Christmas, and he hasn't signed to date so he won't now. |

Hmm 🤔 Dunno..No service,no Johnson.In my opinion apart from scoring he looks a little boy lost.He’s a goal hanger who can put his chances away when he gets them,doesn’t seem to bring much more in a game.I’ll go yes keep.He’s worth another chance if he decides to stay..

He needs a target man to play alongside him, Danny is a goal poacher, not a target man so must be really fed up playing on his own up front.
If we tell him we will be getting someone to play alongside him, he might stay, otherwise he will most likely go and try his luck somewhere else.

Keep if we can.
Goal scoring strikers are hard to replace.

Alfresco, in complete agreement , we must sign a target man for him to play off. Ollie Palmer ? Type.

Did not look happy after the injury,maybe not fully fit.If we can keep him,all well and good.If he can better himself then then his time is up and goes with good will.

We have to keep him, as simple as that.
