The board's general manager Keith Hackett agreed that Johnson was being treated harshly and had been denied several clear penalties. On 6 November 2007, Johnson signed a new five-year contract with Everton. During the new season, Johnson scored some vital goals for Everton, including a Premier League winner away to West Ham.
