LIVERPOOL defender Kolo Toure is confident that the solidity the team have shown in the early stages of the season can propel them to achieving their ambitions of garnering silverware this season, according to Sky Sports.
Brendan Rodgers’ men have been victorious in their first 3 Premiership games, successive 1-0 wins with Daniel Sturridge netting all 3 goals; the most recent victory against last season’s champions, Manchester United.
This fantastic start to the season has put Liverpool top of the table as they prepare themselves for a trip to the Liberty Stadium to face Swansea on Monday, and the Ivorian, believes that the unity of the club this season will be a prominent factor in the Reds’ success.
Talking to the club’s website, he said: “With team spirit, you can win anything, individuals are very important, but team spirit is the key – it is the most important thing.
“Individuals can win you one game, but to win trophies or be champions it is down to a group of players.
“If you want to be successful, you need to work as a team. That is really, really important because we are a group of players and we have the same target – to win trophies and do as well as we can.
“When you don’t play, you need to support the team and your team-mates need to feel that you are behind them fully.”
Toure missed the Manchester United game after suffering a groin injury in Liverpool’s Capital One Cup tie against Notts County, but is hopeful of returning to face Michael Laudrup’s side.

Is gud to be meaniful
Kolo Toure has realy impressed me! Rodgers is doing a good job of turning rejects and second-hand players into world-class!
Toure was world class a few years ago . He hasn’t don much for Allen skrtel Borini Shelvey Johnson reina Lucas Coates etc etc. Seems like he made them worse
It’s bullsh*t really . A group of individuals at man city have won quite a few trophies .
Toure means well but he is talking rubbish. Team work.is important but so is buying the best players which Liverpool dont
You are saying rob**sh bro, wat about real madrid with a galaxy of star and a good coach morinho, what as been their achievement in the last 2 years.. And look at wigan winning the fa cup with less experience player.
Real won league season b4 last and cup this year. Wigan were relegated
