Toure was kinda attacking midfielder vs Liverpool few days ago, mega offensive :wth:
Ya he plays as an attacking mid with them. Not really that surprising to be honest, he was always an offensive box to box midfielder until he came to Barca and they started playing him as a DM, naturally people started to know him when he played for Barca, but before that he was always an offensive CM for his NT and for Monaco
