Andy Johnson: the real deal

Andy Johnson is scoring goals.

From the article “Joy for Johnson in front of Sven”:
“With England coach Sven-Goran Eriksson watching from the stands, Johnson netted Palace's third goal of the game to take his tally for the season to 14 and further stake his claim for an international call-up.”
Andy Johnson deserves that call up, here is why:

Thierry Henry 16
Andrew Johnson 14
Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink 10
Jermain Defoe
Robert Pires
Andy Cole 9
Shaun Wright-Phillips
Paul Scholes 8
Didier Drogba
Aiyegbeni Yakubu
Milan Baros
Frank Lampard 7
Kevin Phillips
Fredrik Ljungberg
Robbie Keane
Nicolas Anelka
Paul Dickov
Eidur Gudjohnsen
Craig Bellamy
Arjen Robben 6

Of the top 20 goal scores in England: Andy Johnson is the only one which does not or has not regularly played on a national side.

And he’s #2 on that list…. By 4 goals.

Gordon Strachan's article in the Guardian rated him as
"more important to one club than probably any other player"
