On the Lescott Transfer Request


So Joleon Lescott has at last expressed an unwillingness to stay at Everton, after City have yet another bid for the 27-year old rejected. I was listening to the emails that were sent into Sky Sports News this morning, almost all of which had come from Everton fans. A few said thatt David Moyes should take the 22 million that City have offered and go out and by another defender worth 20 million.

The only problem with that, as I see it, is that City have spent the summer looking to sign some big money defenders, and they just don't seem to be able to find any of them available. So, if Everton got rid of Lescott, how do the fans imagine they would find it easier to find another big money defender?

That said, I think that at this stage, with the player now having requested a transfer, Everton have little option but to let the star centre-back go.
