Kampusbet ~ " Kolo Toure insists Liverpool team spirit can see them through growing injury problems "
Agen Klik4D ~ Kolo Toure believes Liverpool’s injury hoodoo won’t become a crisis - if their youngsters can channel a consistent fighting spirit.
And the veteran defender joked they can take a lead from his performance at Stoke, which he reckons can earn him a move to Real Madrid!
Toure is the last man standing in the Reds central defence – and even then only on one leg, after an heroic performance at the Britannia Stadium where he led his side to victory despite being crippled by muscle problems.
The 34-year-old believes the time has come for a youthful Anfield squad to show their mettle by understanding they have to fight in every game, and not just when it suits them.
“We
have a young team and they need to learn the past is gone and every
performance is a challenge where you must give 100 per cent no matter
who you play,” he explained.
“That is what happened to me in my career. You learn there is no time to
relax. To come to Stoke and play like we did is one thing, but if we go
to Exeter [for Friday night's FA Cup third round tie] and think it is
going to be easy, then we will find ourselves in a tough game.
“We need that team spirit in every game. If you think you are going
to win easily, then you have no chance because this is a very difficult
league – anybody can win.
“We lost that game (at West Ham) because there was less commitment but at Stoke we showed great fighting spirit.”

was at the heart of that spirit, and one moment where he dived headlong
to block a ball despite being unable to run typified his performance.
And
when asked what he will do when his contract is up at the end of the
season he joked: “If I can play like that then maybe I will go to Real
Madrid!
"I don’t know what I am going to do but I would like to stay in the Premier League playing football because I love it.”
Toure is also prepared to put his body on the line to solve
Liverpool’s defensive crisis on Friday, even though he’s a doubt with
muscle injury.
And he believes the likes of holding midfielder Lucas Leiva will rise to the challenge to join him in a makeshift defence.
“We
are under pressure of course. We are losing a lot of centre backs right
now but we are a team and we fight and defend as a team and Lucas was
the man of the match,” he added.
He is good as a centre-half, and because we play as a team he knows
he is not on his own and he has players who will cover for him.
“Every
time we have had to deliver, we have delivered. We have a tough manager
and you can see how the team plays and fights together.”
