Kolo Toure

[magicrat]

Is there any update on Toure's injury ?

Looked quite bad .

I see this thread was started by Jsims.

Apart from the obvious irritation factor and lack of a brain why did he get banned?

[therevivalist]

Fortunately Toure's is not that bad; a couple of games probably.

He should in fact be good for Swansea.

[thompsonsnose]

Excellent.

[DanDanShaw]

He's very likeable, my manager is a City fan and they loved him.  He couldn't see why they didn't just give him a 2 year deal because he didn't moan about being on their bench either. 

 

 

 

Their loss, our gain and all that.  Great player, he has the passion and fight which fans appreciate.

 

[JermainePennant]

On current form he is the best CB in the prem, how lescott has been playing ahead of him for a few years is beyond me.

There should be a competition with a fridge magnet for the winner.

"What is Kolo saying?"

Good idea, would also be interesting to know what Brendan said to him to get such a reaction.

Kolo is boss and all but not as boss as CaramaC's avatar.

[Megadrive Man]

I thought he was washed up, and  I really didn't want us to sign him.

 

I couldn't have been more wrong!

 

He looks revitalised under Rodgers, long may it continue!

LETS HAVE THEM!"

I love him and he's not just a favourite due to him being a character, he's also been fantastic.

[Red7]

Just before that clip of him celebrating with Rodgers, he had fallen on the touchline holding his shoulder. He looked in agony and i thought he'd dislocated it, yet as the camera panned out, here he was running back to our goal to defend. Quality player and a steal on a free.

Same here. I was underwhelmed when he signed for us to say the least.

 

His performances and will to win have been incredible and also a lot of our players look shattered after 60 mins, Gerrard, Lucas etc. Kolo is like the duracel bunny just keeps going.

He was the one player at the end of the Old Trafford Match still charging up and down the pitch with Minutes left.

[ngogswilly]

I wasn't sure he'd be enough for us at CB. And I was delighted when we brought in Sakho who I think has looked good so far too. But Kolo's been brilliant. He really has been a rock so far. If we get 2 good years out of him it'll have turned out to be a fantastic signing. 

[Strontium]

He plays like he has a point to prove. And he's a winner, one of only half a dozen to win the Prem with two different clubs. I hope he can be the first to win it with three.

[MLB]

He is brilliant, both in terms of ability and his attitude on the pitch. Possibly even our player of the season so far.

[tenner]

Playing great stuff at the moment, hope he can keep it up for the season.

[ZonkoVille77]

His enthusiasm is infectious. Best thing I've heard said about him and it's 100% accurate.

Think we all feared the worse with Carra retiring but he's been top class.

[halewood pete]

all I ever want to see is a liverpool player giving 100%when he's selected,and kolo gives that,plus he just oozes passion,he's a winner and I just think he has been a great signing for us,I know we have had a few false dawns in recent years,but the way this squad we have now is gelling together, I feel really confident for a top four spot .

[Baltar]

City were fools to let him go. Kolo is class and could well turn out to be our player of the season if he keeps up his performances.

Cant wait for his first goal

he'll go nuts 

deserves a goal 

works his bollocks off

I feel like he could have scored in the past couple of games I've seen him play in. Wouldn't be surprised if he bags one pretty soon.

[lebron]

Great interview with him on Norwegian TV2 just now. Comes across as such a likeable character. Reiterated his beliefs that team spirit is the key to success, and that we have that at our club now (this is music to my ears, too many of our previous sides have lacked this). Pretty glowing endorsement for Rodgers too. Spoke at length about his ability to manage each player, and his analysing of the games/opponents prematch and halftime.
