Toure targets trophies with City

Kolo Toure admits he joined Man City ' to win trophies' and he has every intention of doing just that.[LNB] The Ivorian moved to Eastlands from Arsenal last summer, bringing to an end a glittering eight-year stint in north London.[LNB]He is yet to break his silverware duck for City, but the ambitious Blues are determined to end their barren run sooner rather than later.[LNB]Toure plans to play a leading role in that quest for success, telling the club's official website: "I came here to win trophies and play Champions League football and that is what we are all working hard to achieve.[LNB]"I have played in one great team and I want to be part of another one. I think I still have five or six years to play at the top level and I want to make the most of them.[LNB]"People who know me, know that I am as enthusiastic about the game as I have ever been. I look forward to coming into work every single day and seeing this City side keep improving."[LNB]Toure saw his first season with City blighted by niggling knocks, preventing him from giving his all to the collective cause.[LNB]The 29-year-old insists he is over those problems now, though, and believes there is still plenty more to come from him in the future.[LNB]"I feel so much fitter now than I did last season, I have been happy with my form but there is more to come," he declared.[LNB]"There was always going to be a period of adjustment because it's not easy to move clubs when you have been used to one way of football life for eight years.[LNB]"Now I am settled in Manchester, I know everyone at the club; I know how it all works and feel very happy and comfortable with the way things are going."
