    He wasnt overweight at any time with us. Absolute nonsense.

    Glad we have someone with such experience behind the scenes and his winning mentality will defo benefit the squad.
    People forget that only a few months before joining us he started and was immense in a europa cup final.

    If Toure was overweight at the end, then John Hartson was Yokozuna in his prime.

    I'll take your word for it, but it really surprises me because I recall Rodgers stating that he was a beacon of professionalism and that our youth players should look to put in the extra effort that Toure did, if they wanted to reach the top of the game.

    Anyone who saw the last game v Hearts will tell you the same his shorts were massive lol..

    Great wee bit of business and I'm glad he's still part of the coaching staff, but those saying he could still do a turn obviously didn't see that game.. tbf to him tho he hadn't played for months.. it was almost done to give him a farewell..

    Your talking * mate. He has never been overweight in his career and he is still in shape now as a coach.

    Did you see the game? He was absolutely *? Came in for the last 15 I think. And was defo overweight compared to his usual size.. I'm sure he's still in excellent condition but just not that of a professional footballer anymore..

    This is not to have a go at him I'm sure he's been the model professional throughout his career. However people saying he could have still done a turn this season are delusional.

    And they are the ones talking *!

    Not really overweight, just an absolute bruiser.

    How's this * no bringing in decent defenders!

    Surely he should be helping the scouting team.
