#4 Glen Johnson
Glen Johnson was Chelsea’s first acquisition in the Abrahimovic era when he made a switch across London from West Ham. The full-back was often used as a back up to Chelsea’s first choice full-backs and over the course of his stay at Chelsea, his game time kept decreasing.
Johnson eventually made a loan move to Portsmouth for the entire 2006/07 season before completing a permanent move to the club the following season. The Englishman went on to become one of the best right-backs in the league during his stay there and was included in the PFA Team of the year for the 2008/09 season, despite his club finishing in the lower half of the table. He also became England’s first choice right-back during this period.
After his impressive season at Portsmouth, he moved to Liverpool prior to the 2009/10 season and became the then most expensive defender in the club’s history, a record which was broken this season when Dejan Lovren moved to the club.
During his initial years at the Merseyside club, Johnson was impressive for a Liverpool side who were struggling at that point. Despite his decline defensively, he remains one of the best offensive full-backs in the game now.
