Can someone/anyone please give me a good reason why we are letting our best centre half go to a rival? Player of the season, our best centre back, and can play left back (although i don't like that!). We cant use his age as an excuse as we have McAuley still playing and Olsson must be as a similar age to Jolean?
I appreciate that Villa is his boyhood club but he is our player and we call the shots (I think?!?)!
It must be something to do with his contract? Can anyone shed any light because I am bemused by this one!
IMO Lescott hasnt looked a shade on what he did last year, everytime he has the ball I find myself wincing, he just looks old and slow. I know he has buckets full of experience at all levels. But put it this way, would you rather have a rapidly aging Lescott or Evans? (a potential defensive for the next 3/4/5 years)?
We could of not brought Evans and Kept/keep Lescott another year, but whose to say the player we would of replaced him with next year would be as good as Evans/Lescott?
Just saying??
