I think this is the most likely scenario. CityFibre recently bought the Talk talk FTTP subsidiary Fibre Nation, and although City Fibre is building apace it has avery small Access Network footprint, so Vodafone would need Talk Talk as well to give them a decent fixed line consumer base.

Without Telefonica in that marketplace, there's no obvious trade buyer. Maybe BT at a push.

There's nothing stopping LG and Vodafone doing a JV with VMIE and Vodafone in Ireland as they have with Ziggo in the NL.
