QPR striker Johnson not dwelling on missing Palace return

QPR striker Andy Johnson is not dwelling on missing out on a return to Crystal Palace yesterday.

AJ came close to re-signing for Palace, but ran out of time to see a deal done.

"It was a bit of a whirlwind last night, but I'm really pleased to still be a QPR player. The interest from Palace was flattering, but I never once asked for a transfer and like I said a few weeks back, I owe it to QPR - who stood by me when I was injured last season - to stay and help get this club back to the Premier League," said Johnson.

"I am one hundred per-cent committed to QPR and will continue to give my all to help us build on what has been a promising start to the season."
