Toure insists Man City can challenge for title next term

Manchester City captain Kolo Toure insists they can be title challengers next season.

The Ivory Coast defender claims their squad is ­already good enough - so long as they learn how to put away the top-flight's whipping boys.

Toure said: "We have a good squad. It doesn't ­matter if we bring players in or not.

"It's true we made a few mistakes this season. We lost a lot of points, at home especially. We had too many draws and it cost us because we could have been fighting for the Premier League.

"We must not make ­mistakes like drawing against teams we expect to beat, because that can make a big difference. We just need to make a little adjustment and keep our focus the whole season.

"When you play Manchester United or Chelsea you know it's tough."
