Lescott is potentially done now.
I don't want him to return, as it would taint the memory of that brilliant player we used to have.
 
I always hoped Jo would come back but he was shocking last season. A really sad sight (if you could discount it all being at Villa's expense)
 
Every time I saw Jolean play it looked like his knees had gone. He had lost his pace and had a turning circle of a barge. Sad.
 
Lescott has been playing first team football since he was 17 and we all know about those knees. I like the principle of a return, but in practice I think it would be a disaster. Plus if we sign another centre half it needs to be a leader / organiser, Jo has never been that and played best when alongside one himself; Butler, Jagielka, Kompany
 
Yeni Ngbakoto from Metz in France linked by John Percy of the Mirror. Apparently a promising, quick right winger also linked with QPR and it seems definitely going somewhere.
 
Looks quick but hard to really judge against that opposition. How the fuck he scored some of those goals is beyond me!

Waiting for the outcome of negotiations with Wolverhampton, Brazilian midfielder does not even train with the group
Outside the Benfica plans, Talisca have not even been training with the squad . GAME found that the average Brazilian has done in recent days only activities in the gym of Seixal , away from mates and Rui Vitória looks.
Away team , the player of 22 years waiting since last week the order to travel to England, where he has already agreed a deal with Wolverhampton , leaving only the issue of work permit to play in the Championship ( second division of the country) . The documentation is expected until tomorrow.
Initially , the idea of eagles and agent Jorge Mendes was Talisca negotiate with Liverpool for around 25 million euros. The athlete himself was told the project, but the FA refused to issue permission for entry into the Premier League ( first division ) .

With the last-minute standoff, Wolverhampton was the immediate solution found by Mendes to fulfill the promise made to incarnate president Luis Filipe Vieira, to sell Talisca. recently purchased by Chinese Fosun, the emblem of the second tier of English football will be used as a "bridge" to a new transfer next season, it seems to Liverpool.
The Fosun, remember, it owns a small part of Gestifute, the company that is Jorge Mendes property.
The decision to negotiate the Brazilian midfielder was taken by SAD even before the end of last season. The first attempt was to sell it to the Shanghai SIPG, China, but the talks have not advanced. At the time, the value of trading was also the home of 25 million euros.
Sale and aware that it would not be passed on the light, the player kicked off the pre-season with the group and was up on stage in England, although not used in any of the individuals. It was only scratched once the plans eagles on the eve of the decision of Eusebio Cup against Torino in the last 27.
Talisca is at Benfica since the second half of 2014, when he was hired to Bahia. Since then, the sweater 30 has appeared in 78 games and scored 20 goals.

He is nowhere near good enough for Liverpool, so that is all nonsense, they couldn't even flog him to the Chinese league for the ridiculous fee Mendes is looking for.
 
Anyone hear the bloke on talksport tonight talking about Talisca?

Said he isnt half the player he was a year ago and they have been trying to hawk him off to China for 6 months now but he wont go.
He cant believe he would move to Wolves and said he actually doesnt want to move to the championship either but reckons he might
for his work permit gubbins..Also said he cant believe we would pay the amount thats been quoted.
Also said he was premiership quality but not great.

Premiership quality is good enough for me.
 
Also the issue with the high fee is Benfica's spent €22m on him, I think. He's not worth that but we might have to pay close to that.
