Lescott is basically leaving wba as he's being ousted by either fazio from spurs or jonny Evans . reported he can leave once they bring in and Sunderland and villa are parties interested.



I'm not excited by the arrival of Lescott, but I think I'd take him ahead of either Evans or Fazio.

I'd take Richard Dunne or Liam Ridgewell back ahead of those two.

Some stuff being said about us talking to Roma about Adem Ljajić.

Attacking midfielder / winger, apparently.

Lescott has always seemed destined to join us. A pity it fell through ten years ago when O Dreary was in charge but  better late than never.

I guess I'm in the minority, but I'd prefer Evans, if it weren't for the fact that United would probably want half a dozen million for him or so. I think he just needs to do with a spot of confidence.

Reported 8m which has more than a whiff of the 'panic buy' about it.

Remy would be fantastic, but can't see it happening.

To judge Evans you maybe can take a lead from watching Brown and O'Shea at Sunderland. Both  have been genuinely awful but played quite regularly when there were better players than united have had recently. Evans is still surplus despite then using Blind at centre half. I think that says it all.

Lescott isn't exciting, but he is functional. I like is having an experienced centre half at the club. Johnsen, McGrath hell even Colin Calderwood did a job fit us into their 30s. I reckon he will do a good job for 2 seasons and become a bit of a crowd favourite after a couple of goals. Richards,Lescott and Gestede up for corners would with the opposition to death.

I rated him too, but I guess having the best part of two seasons out of the game, it will take him some time to get back up to speed. 15 years ago his career would have been over.

The problem is that you don't really learn a lot about loaning a player to Celtic, especially as they're anything but guaranteed of progressing in the Champions League. The Championship is a much better yard-stick these days. If he does go to Celtic on loan, I would still take that as a sign that Sherwood's written him off.
