His was absolutely making a joke about his own ability on the ball with that comment. As for his role at the club it's not in a coaching capacity, it's as a liason official or whatever his official title is. He's essentially our loan players mentor, their go to guy if they need anything, have any issues, need advice etc, this other news is to do with him joinging up with the England set up and not city is it not?
Got a lot of time for lescott, he was the media scapegoat when he decided to come here from everton, and it was completely unjustified, yes we probably overpaid for him but that wasn't his fault, he gave his all and won trophies here so will always be more than welcome in my eyes.
Have to say though, he's not the greatest of pundits, hoping he will settle into that the more he does it.
