Romey 1878 Posted July 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 BK saying we want £30million for Lescott isn't being believed by me for one second. He said Rooney wouldn't leave for anything less than £50million . I'd take Cahill (Bolton) or Taylor (Newcastle) as a replacement if/when Joley leaves.

Seriously boys, you'd rather have dogsh*t like this over nedum? He is a future England International. Stuart Pearce loves him! He is seriously quality! If you got offered him, snap him up! I hope to god we dont do it,it would be a monumental mistake! I'd rather Ben Haim\Caciedo\(dare I say it)Bellamy\Dunne go plus the cash! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairWooney Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 (edited) a few sites have got this new offer with the addition of Nedum Onouha. http://www.eatsleepsport.com/everton/city-throw-in-starlet-for-toffees-ace-923550.html I don't know much about him but having looked at the City site it appears he's been their first choice right back for most of last season, is 22 years old, originally from Nigeria but has since played for England under 21's. Anyone got any thoughts on him? If he's a right back then he's really only of interest to us if he's either better than Naughton or if our Naughton transfer has fallen through.

Lowensda Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Onouha is an unsung hero at City, a few city fans said they'd be gutted to lose him. He is their best CB currently at the club and is younger than Lescott. £20m + Onouha, i'd take it, but thats me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 If they manage to sign John Terry, I would consider a 20 million plus bid PLUS John Terry for Lescott. Other than that they can whistle up their backsides as far as I am concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 I think its inevitable that he will leave, its just a case of getting as much as we can for him, nobody in their right minds would turn down a double your money salary, £40.000 TO £80.000 a week no contest. Just make city wait till the bid reaches £20m or more, and we can get an excellent replacement for that money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just make city wait till the bid reaches £20m or more, and we can get an excellent replacement for that money. I completely agree. I'd happily take £20m for him. Yes he is very good, but he is not outstanding. In my opinion (& feel free to argue) he only looked truely international class when next to Jagielka, whereas when alongside Yobo he looked competent but not world class. The perfect example of this was the non existent marking of Drogba's goal in the FA Cup Final. I think we are best off taking an experienced centre back (such as Sol Campbell) for a year or so, get someone upcoming like a young Lescott (such Nedum or Mancienne) who I guess are valued at about £4-5m, then have £15m to play with. Remember that in a couple of years Rodwell may also be in the frame as a centre back. Potentially Manciennce & Rodwell could be the future England centre back pairing. Plus Baines on the left & Naughton (?) on the right. If we currently have £5-8m to spend on a right back plus £10-12m to spend on a midfielder, imagine what we could do with an extra £15m? There are young defenders around like Nedum or Maciennce who will surpass Lescott in a couple of years. Unfortunately for Mark Hughes, he has to get results this year or he will be out. We on the other hand are making progress every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prob not to much..... because that £5-8m would become £10-13m and £10-12m would become £15-17m As soon as someone had a hint that we had some extra cas the price would double...... I dont mind the Idea that he CAN be replaced but....but I dont like the fact that this year we could come unstuck... anyone we get could take at leat a season to bed in..... in that time we could have taken a huge step backwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it impossible for these guys to think that he may not actually just want to jump ship to City.... "Premiership side (City) “would strengthen” his chances of a starting berth in Fabio Capello’s England side at the World Cup next summer." Has he not done that playing for Everton.... you Idiot The whole thing is "contemptible verbiage" :lol: Edited July 21, 2009 by DangerMouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted July 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Why is everyone talking like Moyes will have the £20million to spend?

MikeO Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 "Arsenal are on the verge of agreeing a £10m fee that will send Kolo Toure to Manchester City. This would mean Arsenal’s second player moving to the Eastlands in less than a week, generating around £35m for the gunners. Manchester City have apparently gone off the idea of purchasing Joleon Lescott from Everton, after the Toffees valuated him at £30m. City then turned their attention to the out of favor Toure..."

I agree, theres no way Moyse would see all the dosh he would be lucky to get £10M and there is nobody out there who could replace Lescott for that price I also think that we desperately need another CB now as cover for Lescott & Yobo even if its ony someone on loan until Jags is back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storm Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Joleon Lescott will plead with David Moyes, his Everton manager, to be allowed to talk to Manchester City. Everton rejected a £15million bid on Friday for the England defender, who travelled to the United States yesterday afternoon for a club training camp in Seattle, but he has told team-mates that he wants to hear their plans. City are expected to raise their offer to about £18million, with Mark Hughes having identified Lescott as a priority while continuing his pursuit of John Terry, the England captain. Lescott, 26, is not a natural agitator and is reluctant to antagonise Moyes by pushing for a transfer, but he believes that joining City would strengthen his claim for a place in England's starting line-up in next summer's World Cup finals. --> what a load of BS journalism (imho) surely Joleon doesnt really think that..
