Lescott is much better in the air, as well as better on the ground IMO. His tackle % from last year was pretty ridiculous.
Kos is pretty superb on the ground. Lescott generally plays in a deeper line, and is a last ditch defender. He'd struggle significantly in a high line as would lots of other very good CB's. Kos plays in a high line, and usually uses body position to prevent the striker from receiving the ball. He has speed rare for a CB. His reading of the game is pretty good as well.
I also don't think we should underrate how poor Lescott is on the ball. For a team that dominates possession as much as Man City do, that is fairly detrimental to their overall game.

Fair enough. There is still a lot of things I don't particularly like about Kos though.
He seems undersized, weak and under matched at times. Also comes across as a disaster waiting to happen to me.
But he had a decent season last year and may be getting to that level many are suggesting. No way do I consider him a top 4 CB right now though.
