Re: Agger Bid
Agreed, trouble is on here we sign a new player who is automatically elevated to the first team and we then have an argument whether Agger is better than Lescott because no one can see Kompany might need a rest during the season or get a suspension. If he signs we will have four quality centre backs who can all play in different positions if NEED be.
The determining factor as to who will play and when is down to Mancini.
Not read every page, but with Mancini playing 3 at the back in most of pre-season, would it not be unthinkable for Agger to play with both Kompany and Lescott?

Re: Agger Bid
phew, i'm not alone in my thoughtsAdam-mcfc said:Lescott had the best tackling rate of any centre back in the league last year. Not to mention he held the defence together when Kompany was out, with fookin Savic next to him. All the while he received only 1 yellow all season and missed no games but for injuries.
I don't buy that Agger is more talented than Lescott. In fact the general consensus during the majority of the season was that Joleon was having a better year than big Vinny himself. For the past two years we've had the best defensive record in the league. Lescott and Kompany pulled their weight equally.
Agger is great for rotation and as a back up but I wouldn't break up the VK+JL partnership for anyone (except Thiago Silva, Chiellini, Vidic etc but they're all unnattainable)

I'd speculate that it's a legitimate bid.

I dont know if its me but i think hes a better player than lescott. lescott is a good defender but to me he lacks that aggression you sometimes need to strike fear into a striker.
Agger is a tough bastard and a quality player.
