Andy Johnson

New striker Andy Johnson insists he was no makeweight in the Clinton Morrison deal and says he can score 25 goals next season.

The pacey 21-year-old links up again with Trevor Francis, who gave him his debut at Birmingham last season.

He said: "My intention is to go out and fill Clinton's boots.

"My aim might be to score 25 goals this year and I've definitely got the confidence to do it.

"I'm no makeweight. Birmingham wanted Clinton but Trevor Francis wanted me."
