Man City centre-back Kolo Toure believes that they have the talent to win the Premier League this season, which would lead to more and more trophies.

Manchester City defender Kolo Toure believes that winning a first Premier League title is the most difficult, but once they they capture it, 'everything else will just roll'.

The Citizens are currently three points behind rivals Manchester United in the race for Premier League glory, but can move back to the top of the table with a win over Sunderland on Saturday.

The Ivorian is one of a few City players to have already experienced winning the title with Arsenal and feels his current side are capable of matching that achievement.

"There is talent. To win trophies you need talent and there is a lot of talent in our dressing room. As soon as we get the first trophy I think everything will start to roll," Toure told BBC Sport.

"The most difficult thing is to win the first one and City have not been winning this trophy for a long time. It's true that we have experienced players there but it takes time and if you look at the team there is not a lot of players there who have won the trophy already.

"This one will be massive for all the squad, all the players. It's hard but we know it's not impossible."

The 30-year-old has made 18 appearances for Roberto Mancini's side this season.
