Lescott: I wouldn't take one Liverpool player to Man City

Joleon Lescott believes ZERO players from Liverpool would make Manchester City's starting line-up.

The Reds being just one point behind City in the title race and possess such stars as Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Virgil van Dijk.

However, Lescott feels Pep Guardiola has an unchangeable side.

"Both Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp will each be happy with their own team and their players suit their styles of football," Lescott told talkSport on Thursday.

"I'm not sure I'd take a single one of Liverpool's players for Man City's team, but it's fair to say both have put together great squads.

"From a Man City perspective, I have been very impressed with Aymeric Laporte this season, who has arguably made a similar impact to what Virgil van Dijk has at Liverpool."
