AntMCFC, what planet are you on???? Do you know anything about football?? Toure is a quality defender who's form dipped during his spat with Gallas. Class is permanent, he would be a great signing for us.

He's about 15, and he's pissed off that his balls haven't dropped yet.

I don't get how people could honestly think Toure is not better than any of our defenders. He had one bad season last season... and it wasn't bad as in Richard Dunne bad... it just wasn't as good as previous seasons... yet he is not good enough to walk into City's defense?
Give me a break, he'd take Dunne's spot in the blink of an eye in my opinion. Would be an awesome partner for Onouha.
And if we get Lescott as well, even better.

Good post - a bit of common sense (for a change). Well said. Hughes knows we need 4 top notch CB's Ned is one - the other three need to be signed. I think Kompany will be used as back up to De Jong as a DM. Toure and Lescott would be good. Not sure about Upson a bit of a sick note. I'd be tempted to try for Alves as the 4th option he can be afforded some time to settle in if we have Ned, Toure and Lescott. Longer term Alves could be the best CB in the league.

It frustrates me the number of people who don't think Kompany is one of our Top Centre Backs, he is easily the best at the club right now. He is a fantastic no nonsence defender. Would do great wth a composed player like Toure or Lescott. We only need to sign two centre backs and one wouldn't be the end of the world with Kompany, Onouha, Toure. Lescott would help though.

It is certainly looking that way. Good news if true. Kolo is mint!

This, Kompany is an outstanding defender, he's far better there than in cdm. Zabaleta is perfect cover for de-jong, he played brilliant there back end of last season, its RB we need cover for not cdm.
