Kolo Toure......

[Panthera Tigris]

There's a difference though, he had been fading at Arsenal quite long before joining us. We paid way too much for a past his best player, another classic Hughes signing.

Kolo is shocking, picking him for the Bayern match was a rare bad call by Mancini. We should farm him out to Bolton and get the far superior Boyata back.

Wow, just when I thought this thread couldn't sink any lower.

Kungfu Kolo is an utter shambles of a defender while Boyata is going to be excellent, he's already better than this shambling and faded Kolo. It it worrying how it will effect him playing with all that shite at Bolton. Get him back and send Kolo there, sounds like he's open to leaving anyway. PSG or Bolton, what's the difference.

I thought he looked fit and sharp at right back when he came on as sub against Villa.

He had a poor game last night but it was a team of almost strangers thrown together and we still won 5-2!

IMo he shouldn't be judged on one performance last night, he has been effectively out of the game for 8 months, hasn't played that many games so probably isn't really fully 100% fit. Put him in a back four with reserve keeper and bound to be mistakes. Before he got injured and Lescott was out everyone saying the same about him, for me especially defenders it is always about playing in a consistent side and having a working relationship with the 3 other defenders and keeper. You only have to look at the rags to see what disarray they are in defensively, which again IMO has been brought about by constant changes and their new keeper.

The thing is he was shit 8 months ago as well. He's been shit since he joined.

That is a lie.. and you are saying that because you as well as many others here need for some strange reason to hate one of our players

No, I'm saying it because he was shit then, I was in the minority at the time of saying I preferred Lescott. I was definitely right.

He reminds me of when someone plays FIFA who's never played before and just presses buttons, and the player just slide tackles randomly. That's what Kolo's like, just dives about and Kung Fu kicks everything or nothing.

I don't think anyone dislikes Kolo as a person. My initial point was that I watched him very closely last night and summarised that he is shit... I like him as he is a blue(for now) but as a footballer he is overated,a liability and needs to be moved on.

why even when things are going so well for our club do some fuckers always feel the need to be slagging someone off? FFS stop moaning and slagging

This is a forum where people are allowed opinions are they not?

He should only ever get a game at right back for us, nowhere near good enough at centre half.

 

[Lomas has a lob on]

It was this time last season there were rumours Lescott was going to go out on loan as he couldn't get a game, as Kompany and Toure both started the season very well.
Its circumstances that has cost Kolo, at his age he needs regular games, and I dont think he'll get that here now. I can see him moving on in the summer.
Kolo gives his all every game, and should always be commended for that, but I feel he may have missed his chance with us.
Regardless of Kolos future, I feel we need a top notch CB in the summer.

Totally agree. Makes a better than decent right back imo.
