Liverpool defender Toure: Dream come true playing with Yaya at Man City

Liverpool signing Kolo Toure admits he treasured playing with brother Yaya at Manchester City.

The pair were finally united at City after Yaya Toure failed to win a deal at Kolo's previous club, Arsenal.

Kolo told the Daily Mail: "It was a dream come true. It made me different on the pitch, though. Every time he lost the ball, I tried extra hard to win it back. It's a natural reaction but I tried to hide it. And when two or three were demanding the ball off me, I always gave it to Yaya. I'd done the same to Patrick Vieira but then I switched to Yaya and Patrick was not happy!"
