Kolo Toure insists Manchester City can beat Chelsea
Belief: Kolo Toure says City can beat Chelsea again[LNB]Kolo Toure is confident Manchester City can become the first team to take points off Chelsea this season because they know how to beat the Barclays Premier League champions having completed the double over them last season.[LNB]City beat Carlo Ancelotti's side home and away in the previous campaign although it did not affect the Blues' overall march to the title in the end.[LNB]Chelsea have had a blistering start to the season with five opening wins, scoring 21 goals and only conceding one.[LNB]But Toure claims they can stop the Ancelotti's men in their tracks in the Saturday's mid-day kick-off at Eastlands.[LNB]The City defender said: 'We were delighted to beat them twice last season and we hope to do it again. It's going to be a really exciting game.[LNB]'We need to make sure we take something from it. If we can get one point that would be great, but if we can get all three like we did twice last season, that would be fantastic.[LNB]'The manager wants us to work really hard on defending every day in training because when you defend well, it gives you the chance to win games.[LNB]'We don't concede many goals because we are really tight as a unit and work really hard for each other. We hope we can keep going like this.[LNB]'What we will have to do is defend as a team, like we have been doing, and stay really focused. Then, when we can, we'll have to be really aggressive with them.'[LNB] Powerhouse: Didier Drogba has been in scintillating form for Chelsea this season[LNB]That said, Toure is not underestimating the task against Chelsea, especially with Ivory Coast team-mate Didier Drogba in the ranks.[LNB]He says Drogba has learnt not to be such a selfish player and is an even more dangerous player now.[LNB]'It seems like he's getting better with age because he's such an intelligent player. He's had to change his game. He knows he needs more help from his team-mates now. He used to like to do a lot himself, but now he shows he cares about the team and that's really good.[LNB]'I know his game well, but he's still difficult to play against because he's so powerful.[LNB]'He's playing so well and with all these assists, he seems to have improved his style of playing. At the moment, I'd say he's on fire. So we're going to have to defend really well as a team to stop him. We're going to have to be really strong on Saturday.'[LNB] Shay Given should consider Italian job to end Manchester City misery, says Giovanni Trapattoni Carlos Tevez will only get better!
