Toure has been sold!!!???

Govinda by Govinda . Jul 28, 2009 14:51 . Permalink

I never thought this deal was going to happen and I have to say it makes no sense!

Why sell this guy to a direct competitor?

I think AW is frustrated with the board for not getting him enough funds and now he is raising cash this way.

I know from a guy who works with AW that AW felt betrayed by Ade and would deal him (before it happened) and that he was very disappointed the rights issue did not result in him getting more cash and that he has decided to serve out his contract and then leave.

But this is beyond stupid IMO. If City knock us out of the CL we will know why.

  No, I think Eric is right. Kolo probably didn't want the armband and a move to city would guarentee him a nice pension...If City were going offer less for him you think he would go?
  
  Still it's not done just yet...

  I know. It's still not confirmed but if we do sell him and don't buy somebody decent I for one will be pissed off...we cannot count solely on a Vermaelen-Gallas partnership.

  i always have said toure should have been made captain. reason being the amount of time he has been at the club, and the commitment he has shown.

  I didn't say Eric was wrong, only that money was probably the final factor in his decision.
  
  Lets face it, if Barca or Real had come to him saying they would guarantee him a first place in their teams, but only offered him maybe £85k a week, do you think he would still go to City?
  
  I'm not so sure.
