joleon Lescott has just said on the debate he was told/ had inside information he would have to take the flak for leaving us to go city. He said he was willing to do that if it meant going to city. Another occasion club makes player take the blame?

Crook who deliberately threw a game
Yeah the Arsenal game looked like he’d been told to leave

Of course he took the blame.... He wanted to go and was told if he made it known publicly he wanted to leave it would make the loan happen quicker. ..He was wrong.
What was the club to do, say they wanted to sell him when they didn't.

He fully deserved to take the flak as it as it was him who wanted to go, as evidenced by his 'performance' against Arsenal.
Makes himself sound like a martyr when he was anything but.

Great player for us, lest we forget.
Well yeah thats normally what happens when you lash in a transfer request and then play like a coward.
Player kicks off to leave club, player obviously takes the blame. 
If you play for money then where is the 'blame for changing jobs? Even Wayne did it!
Meh. He left. I'm over it.
Moyes should take some blame for playing Lescott in the Arsenal game. He was blatantly not at it.

I am not really sure what point you are trying to make.
But is sure seems to verify what we have long believed....Lescott wanted out.
And sitting at the ma5ch that day, it really looked to me like he was playing to get a move......and not in a positive way.

Lol ..... following season he played in a preseason friendly vs. Whitecaps in Vancouver for City. I booed him every time he touched the ball ... only a few around me could figure out why ....
Meh ... seems funny now ... played well for us / moved on / never played as well for them .... but can never forgive that opening day v Arsenal
