Yeah i hear he can pass the ball for a start
By all means praise our new player (hopefully) but why slag off NDJ in the process? He played well for us, was a key part of 2012 PL winning team, always gave 100% and was a fucking good lad as well

True, but you'd hardly describe passing as one of his key attributes though would you?!
That's the issue Lescott clearly had, he "....was a key part of the 2012 PL winning team, always gave 100% and was a fucking good lad as well" yet lost his place first to Nastasic and then to Demichelis based in no small part to his lack of comfort on the ball and his inability to consistently pick out a decent pass.

I don't remember him giving the ball away too often though, do you? (Nigel, not Joleon!)

Neither does Garcia. And i wouldn't say it's one of his key attributes.

Except for the historic pass to Aguero at 93:15 or thereabouts in the QPR game

That'll please some of the "There's only one City for me" people in the main NYCFC thread. :-)

calm down we are champions, they have to get level to us first before they can overtake.
we are a fernando, sagna and central defender, hopefully benatia, away from being favourites for the league again and one of the favourites for the champions league.
