I think to be fair to Gustaf, to go and play would be important for him. He and I have spoken on this here. It’s been a difficult move for him but I have to say he’s been absolutely brilliant – every day in training.
Financial issues have ruled out a permanent move to West Brom but it seems that Sheffield United see Johnston as being able to contribute the goals needed to fire up their promotion push.
He was great with me to be honest with you and I think he wants the best for me so obviously coming here was that.

Like many others at Dens Park and elsewher Sutton was amazed that play wasn’t halted for…
The second thing I wanted to see was if he could tactically participate in the game. That’s the big challenge for Mikey because in a one vs one duel, he’s outstanding. He’s very, very good. He can beat a man, but football’s more than that.
Sadly for Mikey he is going to be out for a few more months. He had an issue with his back, sadly, so he’ll probably be out for near-on three months.
