What do you think his best fit is in a 5-3-2, 4-4-2 and a 4-3-3?

[Stonigut]

What about 4-5-1, where the am is truly at the center of the attacking diamond.

[Dunny]

Daniel is a versatile player who can play right or left in attack, however is best position is central attacking midfield. He has the energy and the ability to pick a pass, he also have that rare ability to score goals from the central midfield area. He has done so at youth level now he is doing that in senior football.

[Stonigut]

The energy and ability to pick a pass that is one quality we have totally missed in even the best AM's we have produced. What does his assist production look like and what type of leadership qualities does he have.

[Stonigut]

Had to go digging Dunny.

Here is a blog touting his quality.

I know a good player when I see one boss, this youth has captained Villa's U19 U21 and reserve team so he is a leader. I can guarantee you if Tim Sherwood had gotten the Villa job sooner this youth would not be allowed to leave Villa and would be in the first team squad now. There was an outcry from the Villa fans when he was let go in January.

Yes, full trust on that Dunny, you know that sometimes the tangibles and intangibles get in the way of talent, but this guy looks like he has been forgotten somehow in this crazy player development process and at 22.

Love the goal against Oldham, wikid!

Btw just notice that sylvan ebanks, beckford and humph rise are also on this team, wow, what are the odds on getting Ebanks and beckford on the same team in league one and they can still score.

[Dunny]

Daniel Johnson made it 5 goals and 2 assists in his last 7 league games helping Preston to a 2-0 win over Peterborough.

Man producing.

Love this quote from the manager.

“Daniel just loves playing football, the kid would still be out there now if he got the opportunity.
