One more down - Kolo Toure
Kolo Toure exits Arsenal to join rivals Manchester City for a hefty sum of 14million pounds. This amount is huge considering the players age and fading talent. Toure was the last asset remaining from the Invincible team once we boasted off. Kolo Toure was an attacking midfielder when he was bought and later he was trained and nurtured into a world class centre defender.
Kolo Toure played most of his football life with Arsenal and was able to earn the goodwill of the fans. He was a fan favourite and had commanding presence in the field. We will surely miss him, but that doesn't mean we are going to fail without him. We got enough of him and its time for him to move on. The fact that he has joined our rivals in BPL is quite interesting considering that he will soon get to know that money is not everything. He will be paid more than 100,000 pounds per week and will be one of the costliest defender in that front.
Man City should be thoroughly mistaken if they think that Arsenal weakens by missing Toure. Just imagine if Keown had not gone, Tony Adams never retired and Sol Campbell stayed with Arsenal. Will we ever get a Kolo Toure? Will he be able to join Manchester City today. Never ever! So let's hope the same way this is a new begining. New stars will arise and fill the gaps in a more stylish and influential manner. Good luck Toure and happy retiring!
