To be fair to dubbed - when it comes to Koscielny i can guarantee you cannot find a single Arsenal fan in the world who thinks Toure is better. I'd be incredibly shocked if just one fan of Arsenal (who lets be fair have seen more of both players than most fans of other clubs) would rather have Toure in the team than Kosc.
Koscielny was a BIG reason why we got top 4 last season ahead of Spurs. Fans of other clubs haven't quite clocked on to how good he is yet, but i recon by the end of the season everyone will be drooling all over him.
And this is comming from an Arsenal fan who has always liked Toure a lot, both for his personality and his footballing ability. Just over a year ago when we needed to bring in a back-up CB i wanted Toure to come in and play 4th choice ahead of Djourou.
He will do a good job for you and i still think he has spomething to offer at this level, but i wouldn't in a million years have him on a team sheet ahead of Kosc and i think that is probably the view shared by most people.
The key point here is that it's clear Arsenal fans wouldn't want to swap any of our first choice defenders for your lot, and vice versa Liverpool fans wouldn't want to swap any of there back-4 for any of ours. So as Cini said a few posts back, it's a stalemate, there will be no winner here![]()
Disagree, I'd swap Skrtel for Koscielny any day of the week
