Toure: We have to stick together

Toure: We have to stick together

Defender Kolo Touré says that whilst new signings to strengthen the squad are welcomed, it's also important that key members of the current squad stick together.

The Ivory Coast international says that the current team have an understanding of each others' game play that takes time to develop, and that should not go to waste.

Touré said: "I think keeping the team together is the most important thing. When you stay with your team-mate for three or four years you start to learn how he plays.

"That helps you for the games and I think we have been together for a while now. It's important for our improvement next season.

"Sometimes when you bring somebody else, these players have to settle and that can take a year sometimes.

"The Premier League is already difficult so if you play six months badly it's difficult to come back."

I think arsenal players under-utilised their potentials last season and as such they do not deserve commendation for a trophyless season .

If we can get Gallas a new 4 years deal and bring new CD, i wouldn't mind losing Kolo. Its always been either him or Gallas.
