Lescott dropped as Moyes fumes

JOLEON LESCOTT has been axed by Everton from their opening Europa League tie

Toffees boss David Moyes took the decision to drop Lescott from the play-off first leg against Sigma Olomouc at Goodison Park for “his bad attitude” after also leaving him out of yesterday’s training session.

This is the latest chapter in a saga that has been rumbling on for weeks with Lescott being pursued by Manchester City, who have had two bids of £15 million (€17.4m) and £18m (€21m) rejected for the defender.
