Rayvin 5165 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 £12m is a good fee for him, mind. They could get a couple of reasonable players for that if reinvested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 10686 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Except the sort of player they need isn't going to want to join them. And the ones that do join them may be enough to drag them across the line, but in 12 months they'll be in the same shit state they are now.  Joleon Lescott has been out of contract for a while, hasn't he?  Edit: On 29 August 2016, Lescott joined Superleague Greece side AEK Athens on a two-year contract.[41] The 34-year-old defender suffered a detached cartilage in his knee while cycling in his apartment. The injury ruled Lescott out for the remainder of the season. The player denied to get help from the team's doctors and insisted to complete his rehabilitation in the UK. AEK Athens did not agree to the player's wishes and additional demands, which resulted for his contract to be terminated on November 14, 2016 by mutual consent.  If that doesn't scream "I don't much like this foreign place and I want to go home", I don't know what does.

rogerbarton 24 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Lescott couldn't even be trusted to show up for Football Focus on Saturday. Not to mention his role in Villa's shit show last season. And remember #PorscheGate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he's gotten a fair few assists for them too. Pretty sure he's their second top scorer and he's a LB. They might aswell just give up now.

David Kelly 1219 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Lescott was fucking hopeless for Villa last season. Â He's a lifelong Villa fan I think, and if that couldn't motivate him to do anything to help them stay up, I doubt big eyes and 40000 inbread's (for 45 minutes at least) will inspire him. Not a signing I'd be impressed with if I were them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
