Lescott : would you have him back?

ElPorto · May 14, 2014

Lescott smells like Johnny Heitinga... pass it on

Much rather have BMIL who'd have about a quarter of Joleon's wages.

Buying Lescott 2014 doesn't get you Lescott 2009. Simple as that. We move on.

Him and jags were really good together to. But i don't think Martinez will be interested in Lescott

Darth Toffeeman · May 14, 2014

No.

We need to find a Left centre half to build an understanding with Stones over the next decade.
Lescott had his chance here and his best days are behind him. He is being kept out of the Man City side by Demichelis!

We don't really know the truth behind the scenes here. You just have to look at the BS surrounding Gary Speed's departure. Moyes can be very brutal. Joleon was VERY good for us and we made a mad profit.

As was said earlier in this thread - if Roberto wants him, then he should be given a true Goodison welcome. He has to WANT to come back, and if he does,that tells you something of the circumstances of his leaving.

At the end of the day ALL players are 'greedy barstewards'.

No way, reasons why his pace has gone and he is absolutely awful on the ball a requirement all Cbs need playing for Martinez. Let's not forget how he held us to ransom back in August 09 aswell, his performance against Arsenal that day is/was unforgivable.

Wow, its 2009.

Rugby Toffee · May 14, 2014

No that boat has sailed...we should be looking forward not back

Lescott only avoids B***by levels of hatred due to the fact City are not our local rivals (they are Mancs though!)

I for one wouldn't have him in the house, let alone on our hallowed pitch in the royal blue jersey. He's not the player he once was.

If Jags hadn't been there to carry his sorry can all through 2008/09 we'd have finished midtable with no FA Cup Final, and I've certainly never rated him since he went to City.

I hope he reads these

Him going worked out best for all parties in the end. He went to City and got all these medals he's so proud of.

We got Sylvain "The Milkman" Distin to replace him.

I'm quite happy with how it turned out. To answer the question, no I wouldn't have him back. Purely for football reasons now, his wages would be too high plus we've got better options. Alcaraz had a few bad games towards the end of the season but he's still more use than Lescott is now he's lost his legs.
