For those who didn't attack him on his social media, and supported him whilst he settled in...BJ says thankyou!
Brennan Johnson feels our fans have played a key role in him finding his groove in Lilywhite.
A deadline day arrival from boyhood club Nottingham Forest in September, Brennan had endured something of a slow start to his Spurs career by his standards with just one goal in his first 17 appearances for the Club.
However, over the last few weeks, things have certainly started to click for the Welshman in north London with three goals coming in his last six games, while he has also ticked over into double figures for goal contributions this term - the latest of which came in Sunday's 4-0 win over Aston Villa with the forward crashing home our second of the afternoon.
Scoring such a goal in such an important game for us clearly meant a lot to Brennan, as highlighted in his post-match chat with SPURSPLAY, but what was more pertinent to the forward was to put on record his thanks to our supporters who stuck by him from day one and have continued to be in his corner as he has found his feet in N17.
Reflecting on the win at Villa Park, Brennan said: "There was a lot of build up to the game and big it was in terms of teams fighting for the same thing but, for us, it was just about performing and trying to stick to what we do, because when we play like that, we feel like we can beat anyone.
"I felt like that was deserved, our pressure was unbelievable, especially for that second goal, nicking the ball and once we do that we get into really good positions because we always want to press, but we press with the intent to score. To do that today was really good and the guys at the back, playing a high line, nicking the ball, it just gives us the goals."
On his personal recent goalscoring form, our number 22 continued: "It's still not as many as I want, but to score in a game like that, especially at the time I scored, I’m buzzing, especially for all the fans who stuck with me and always gave me so much confidence, a big thank you to them."
And now, after that statement win in the West Midlands, Brennan admits there is a buzz about the squad and, as we quickly edge towards the final running, the group can't wait to get back on the pitch again with a trip to Fulham up next (Saturday 16 March - kick-off 5.30pm UK).
"We’re all really excited, especially when we play like this," he beamed. "But we know, at the same time, we have a tough away fixture next week at a place where (Fulham) can perform and they’ve put teams away, so we’ll take every positive we can from this game and try to build again."

BJ is fine. Social media is what it is, he is young and is learning that the hard way. It won't go away, hopefully he has learned to filter out the bullshit and focus on what is important. I would say, just do away with social media, but we all know that isn't happening.
I wish him the best, glad he didn't give up and let it ruin him.

Said this before, but our strength is the collective of attacking players we have:
Seniors: Madds, Richi, Sonny, BJ, Kulu, Werner, Solomon, Gio, Gil
U21s: Veliz, Scarlett, Devine, Donley etc
You'd struggle to have more bodies in a squad than what we've got.
I would say that Madds and Johnson look the safest. That's a huge compliment to Johnson to be in that company.

I like the look of Johnson but have my reservations about whether he’ll make it big big. He certainly has some moments and if Ange has anything to do with it, he could go big. He certainly has flair. Yes he needs to sharpen up his attacking shots but he get his chances and he’s not afraid to have a go. I think at this point I’d give him my vote . Go for it Brennan lad. Keep pushing the envelope.

BJ is one for the future, his quietly learning and going about his business, in him I believe and he will get there.
Go about your job BJ, learning etc and fcuk all the knobs on Social media.

Still, he's continuing to contribute and give us that dynamic forward drive when we're starting to look stale. 11 goal involvements so far this season, he's looking absolutely class.
