Feeling really good about having Yaya next season. Feel he is more comfortable under Pep now and will have a special season for us.

Great news and the big man totally deserved it. Great business by City as well. in the games he does play Yaya will show how important he still is. And after he ran Pogba ragged we can give him the goodbye he deserves for being one of the most influencial players ever to wear a City top.

 

[Scar Tissue]

Well deserved for Yaya. Rapt that he wants it as well. Great news.

Glad he gets one more victory lap. One of the most decorated and wonderful players we've had.

A motivated and in shape Yaya is a top 5 midfielder in the prem league still.

 

[CrownPointBlue]

His relationship,mentoring & status with the youngsters is great to see.

Giving Jesus that penalty was the act of a man who is embracing & relishing the role of senior pro & statesman. A man to look upto.

The youngsters referring to him as Uncle is a lovely sign of the affection they hold for him.

We know the player........we're now seeing the man we've always wanted.

Respect Yaya.

Just seen he's scored 81 goals in 299 games. That's a remarkable return for a midfielder.

Imagine if he made it 100 before the end of next season.... (If we got all the penalty's we should have had he'd probably be nearly there already!)

The Dream.... Yaya, FA Cup Final, at that end scoring his 100th City goal to win us the cup...... I can dream!

The thing that sets Yaya aside from just about all our players in the last 20 odd years has been his ability to play his best football in the really big games. FA Cup semi versus the Rags, Final Against Stoke, Final against Sunderland, Final against Liverpool - he's had a huge impact in all those games. Also in derby games and in premiership run in's etc. you could generally rely on him to be at the top of his game. Great player who performs when it really matters.
