Lescott dropped

Sell him and buy Hangeland

Aye well said that man

 

[John Lennon]

we shouldn't sell him until we have a replacement already signed though. I can see us selling him then having to but a mediocre defender

 

[chicoazul]

Very disappointing.

He defies the term professional footballer.

Its time to cash in on him unfortunately, I dont want him anywhere near the team for weakening the side prior to a big game.

He should remember where his name was made.

He'll be suited at City.

this.

although i dont see why he would never play under moyes again, look what happened to yakubu when they fell out.. everyone said he was going to leave but he stayed

 

[bluebloodinmyveins]

That cnut could have cost us a place in the europa league.
Anyone who backed him before this, i hope you now realise the guy is scum. What he has done to a club and manager who has supported and backed him, is disgusting.
I wish i could put exactly what i want to say about him, but i'd most likely be banned.

 

[Dutch Toffee]

I refuse to get all worked up over Lescott, as he clearly isn't worth it. Just send him packing a.s.a.p.

 

[TGV]

wasn't he supposed to be a model pro? my arse he is. he's greedy and everything good he's done will be overshadowed by this whole story. bye bye joleon, I don't wish you any success in the future.

and I hope City goes down ...

 

[kenada_blue]

Gotta go. Moyes...bite the bullet and let him go.

 

[OneTrueLegend]

Im made up he has been dropped, he doesnt play for us anymore as far as I am concerned.

Get him sold and get someone else in who wants to play for us. Our team is built around the team spirit and everyone pulling in the same direction, we dont need "Rogue Spears" like Lescott messing it up with talk of joining City :toilet:

 

[AdamTheGreatOneB]

Damn only popped out for a couple of hours and it all happens!! Perhaps if I go out again we'll have signed a couple of players when I get back!

 

[Seamus Colemole]

Any evertonians that start with the elephant man sh1t waive any right to incredulity next time the RS sing songs about one of our players' disabled children.

Indeed. Shame to see it on here in the first place, thought this place was supposed to be better than that.

If he's not gonna play he might as well be sold, all keeping him here achieves is letting Moyes prove how stubborn he is and probably annoying city.

Does sound as if Moyes is trying to make Lescott out to be the bad guy in all of this when no one here actually knows the full facts of the story so will be quick to judge.

Moyes has done the right thing, totally behind him on this one, I'm sure if it wasnt for the money on offer and the fact we are skint Moyes would make him sit out the rest of his contract. Moyes strikes me as a man you really do not want to cross. Anyway I would put him on the transfer market to see who else might be interested in him.

 

[Rob]

VERY VERY dissapointed in Joleon on this matter, if that man values money over what he has/had at Everton then he is very very sadly deluded indeed.

I think Moyes has handled himself very very well in all of this, stuck by his word throughout, he said he won't sell and continues to say it, Joleon by acting like this is really only dragging his own name through the mud.

And after his performance on Saturday, do city even want him anymore?

 

[chicoazul]

But it is clear the atmosphere at the Finch Farm training complex has worsened since then.

Moyes added: "I made a decision and due to Joleon's attitude, I felt it would be better if he wasn't included in the squad. He does not seem to be in the right frame of mind.

"He wasn't (right) before Saturday's game and he told me that. But I took the risk and chose to play him. But now the time is right to leave him alone until things are sorted, and hopefully that will be after the deadline.

"I find Joleon a really good boy to work with, a pleasure in fact. I couldn't say enough good things about him.

"But the boy has changed. It is not just me (who has noticed) but the players who are working with him have noticed it as well.

"But the door is open for Joleon. We don't want him to go, I have said that all along, unless we get an offer that I think is right.

"But at the present time he is not in the squad and it is best that we get on without him."

The former Preston boss continued: "I know this is a gamble, but I hope we can get back on the right road now after the 6-1 defeat by Arsenal. That has damaged our confidence, and our reputation.

"We have to rebuild that again. We are starting as low as we can go, but maybe we needed it.

"Maybe I have been telling the players that they are too good, too often.

"Maybe they need to back to doing the basic things and progressing their careers. Back to basics now and back to playing much better.

"We have a lot of consciences, players here keen to put things right. They are embarrassed by that performance, but the place to put it right is on the field.

"That is where they need to show me and the fans how they feel about Saturday.

"I agree that the fans will be hoping to see something better than what they experienced at the weekend.

"I haven't got it out of my system, not for a long while. It will always be there, but we are preparing for the next one and aim to still finish at the top end of the Premier League."

He added: "We know a bit about Sigma, we had them watched at the weekend and have also viewed the DVD of their games with Aberdeen. They must be a decent side to have scored eight in that tie.

"I have talked to Aberdeen manager Mark McGee, and we know what we are up against. They are hard-working and well organised.

"They are not at the same level as Standard Liege, who knocked us out of the UEFA Cup last season. But we need to find our form very quickly."

Interesting.
