Football's Greatest Top 5: Joleon Lescott | “Wayne Rooney’s ability was stupidly good.”
Manage episode 420671190 series 3567009
Former Manchester City and England defender Joleon Lescott is back with Jeff to pick the top 5 forwards he faced during his career.
- Who made him realise what the level was in the Champions League?
- Which Champions League winner turned into Iron Man inside the box?
- Who is his surprise number one?
Joleon also reveals how facing Wayne Rooney would leave you exhausted, why Carlos Tevez once refused to come on as a sub in Munich and who he’d pick between Harry Kane and Erling Haaland.
Fernando Torres, Robin van Persie, Luis Suarez and Samuel Eto’o all get a mention too but do they make his final five?
Football's Greatest is a Folding Pocket Production with BBC Studios.
