I think it's a little unfair to hold his price against him. He didn't put that pricetag on his head after all. We were desperate and Liege took advantage of that fact. That being said, he's frustrating me with his recent performances tbh.
Because this way Lescott won't go til the final day and we won't have time to bring a replacement in and the money will have disappeared come January, it's happened before.
