After capturing Joleon Lescott from Everton for a cool 22 million pounds (and then taking swipes at his former manager, David Moyes), Manchester City finally have bought some competent defensive cover for Shay Given:
- Kolo Toure for 16 million pounds. He has championship pedigree as a part of the Invincibles at Arsenal.
- Sylvinho on a free transfer. He's surely past his prime, but he's definitely worth a punt (not like Man City will have any problems paying his wages), and he comes from Barcelona, a team of champions and playmakers.
Hughes has bought well. These defenders are class and have lots of experience playing at the highest level for club and country. Man City has yet to concede a goal in the league, but they've also looked less than inspiring so far considering the players they now have on their squad.
