News: Moyes not happy with Man City


not happy

Everton boss David Moyes is far from happy about the way Manchester City are conducting themselves in their pursuit of Joleon Lescott.

Everton have been approached with two offers from City and both have been turned down, but there is speculation that Hughes will return with a bid of £22 million for the defender.

However, Moyes, who has said throughout the summer that he is unwilling to sell any of his players, told the Sunday Mirror: "It's about showing respect and we're not being shown that."I'm sure if I was Mark Hughes, with all the money he has, I'd try to buy the best players.

"But we try to go about it in a different fashion. I'd think I'd go about my business in the way I've always done.

"I've always tried to contact the managers and show respect to them in terms of transfers - and no matter how much money I might have to spend I'd always want to keep that up.

"It goes back to the managers having a drink together after the game, to the fact managers would still phone each other up when they're looking for a player.

"That is part of the way it should be done."

ah diddums, poor Moyes upset! .. or simply can't resist joining the anti-City bandwagon? .. no mention though of the year loan for Jo, i see .. a player Everton decided they couldn't afford, for who City forked out £19m, but now have him again, this time for a year loan, and have even asked City to pay part of his wages .. and now Moyes has got the nerve to whine on about Lescott, who at a bid of £18m is already way overpriced .. get real, skinflint
