Former Manchester City player Michael Johnson reveals inner demons

Goal :    Michael Johnson has hinted that mental health illness may have played a role in his failure to fulfil his potential at Manchester City, and pleaded with the media and the public to leave him in peace.

The 24-year-old broke on to the Premier League scene in 2006 and quickly became tipped for an England call-up following a string of impressive displays.

However, after injury problems and weight issues the Manchester-born midfielder’s career now appears to be over after City decided to pay out the remainder of his contract, which was due to expire this summer.
