SPECULATION - Michael Johnson

Rumoured to be going to QPR for £2m. We should offload Harper for £5m and then get Johnson in for £2m, great business and a much better player.

It's unlikely anyone would pay £5m for Harper.
Poor little Stephen Hunt thinks he's worth £5m and no one else agrees. :lol:

Johnson would be an almighty signing, credit to QPR if they get him.

Excellent player on his day but when someone as young as him struggles so much with (different) injuries it is a cause for concern.

Think it will take more than £2 million despite this anyway.

QPR will more than likely be paying astronomical wages to him if he does go - I'd also expect a prem club to come in unless they all think he's too big of a risk injury wise.

Super player, better than anything we've got at Reading, but it's no good if you can't even walk.

If Harpers off I'd love to see us make a move here.

Can't see it happening though as I'm sure someone else will put in a better offer.

Man City seem keen to get rid of some excellent young players for a fraction of their worth in todays market

If anyone can snap up this kid, and he's not physcially ruined, then they've got themselves a bargin and a hell of a player

I imagine Jay has extrapolated from Hunt's contract clause that he and the club rate him at £5m, but as no one is willing to cough up, the rest of the world doesn't.
