Manchester City boss Sven Goran Eriksson says 19 year-old Michael Johnson can be the complete midfield player.
He told City's website: "Michael's an all-round footballer, he works hard, can both defend and attack and has a good shot, which we've already seen this season.
"He can do a bit of everything, and he has the right attitude. He wants to learn, and he's going to get better and better as he's only 19."
