Kolo Toure insists he has no regrets at taking charge at Wigan Athletic, as the new Latics boss prepares to face Sunderland on Thursday night still looking for his first victory. Toure took charge at Wigan at the end of November but has so far picked up just a single point from his first three games at the helm, and suffered a heavy 4-1 defeat at Middlesbrough on Boxing Day which leaves the Latics next-to-bottom of the table, three points from safety.
The former Arsenal, Manchester City, and Liverpool defender sees keeping newly-promoted Wigan in the Championship as a challenge, and says he is determined to succeed. "It was a difficult afternoon for us," he said of the defeat at Boro.
"I thought we started well and put them under pressure, but at 1-0 down we were then under pressure. I'm a guy who likes to challenge myself.
