Portsmouth boss Paul Hart says Glen Johnson is the best right-back in the country.
"Glen is the best full back in the country as far as I'm concerned - and he's one of the best players," he said in the Daily Express.
"You only find out about players when you get close to them and work with them. He has been absolutely immense. Day-in, day-out he is a tremendous professional.
"He is certainly one of the best right-backs but he can play that position in right midfield because he is such an attacking player. I love him when he plays out there because he gets a lot of crosses in for me."
