key cog to their defense and seeing him leave with no real replacement and the transfer window closing in a week means that David Moyes will have his work cut out for him. He played in every Everton league game the past two seasons, chipping in with 10 goals over those seasons. But the lure of the petropounds was too much and the defender will now join what appears to be the new "Chelsea" what I mean is the new big spenders in the Prem, not sure if the titles will follow. Lescott should make a good central defensive pairing with Toure and or Dunne. The addition of Lescott brings City a solid back line rotation when you have Richardson and Bridge on the wings, and can rotate Dunne and Ben Haim at various positions in defense. With Given as the back stop, Manchester City have the making of a top flight defense in the Premiership. As for Everton, it will be very difficult to replace the central defender. Much will be asked of Yobo to take on the leadership role in the back.Clearly Manchester City are announcing that they are serious about contending for silverware this season. I am not 100% convinced that the "sauce will take" this season, but over a 2 year span they have the resources to raise the bar in the Premiership.
