I think in the games he has played, Toure has been immense. Hasn't put a foot wrong.

Agree and even said that Sakho would come good despite his very nervous first game. I also admit that I said Borini and Aspas will not be Prolific.

Lets judge later into the season I just wonder whether its another we have overpaid for. In fact none of the new signings are pulling up trees are they ?


How many new signings in the premiership can be said to be "pulling up trees" - 4 or 5 out of a few dozen perhaps? A bedding in/ learning/ adapting period is quite the norm.


shocked I can't see why players would need a bedding in period, all they have to do is move house, some times learn a new language, get to know his new team mates and how they play, learn the system of play.

Jury out on Sakho,
Jury in on Toure:
very good freebie signing, we should get two good seasons out of him, not as fast as when at Arsenal, but still quick, and an excellent reader of the game, a worthy if short term replacement for the great Carra.

Ask john Terry and you’ll see the need for bedding in

Tbf,i've not noticed anyone getting stimulated by Allen and with the exception of Carex,everyone loves a tryer.

After 6 games... hardly!

Cast your mind back to last season when the good folks on Koptalk were purring about Joe Allen and cursing Jordan Henderson.

As things stand Kop, I’ll happily curse both of them...as for the purring I’ll leave that to my cat!
However I think we can safely laud the great Toure he’s a proven performer allbeit aging a bit but then he was a freebie, so well done FSG on one signing at last!

Don't agree players need bedding in. There are exceptions I agree but in the main a good player contributes from the off. We have a disturbing number who need bedding in including boriini who is still bedding in after a year. The happy pil team on here where saying the same thing about him a year ago.
