yaya's 300th appearance tonight , and captain , has been much maligned due to his idiotic agent , but you cannot underestimate the contribution the big man has made to our club and the "project" , hope he goes out in style this season with a couple of medals round his neck.

Absolutely. Freight train of a footballer when on song. Countless important goals for us over the years and to send him out a winner would be the least he deserves. I'm actually quite excited to see the big man get around. It's been so long! Let's hope he shows Pep how important he can still be.
 
It was great to see him back in the fold but he was really struggling once Gundogan went off. Looked like he was carrying a fridge on his back for the last 10 minutes.
 
Should have been replaced. But Guardiola wanted Sanchez so thats where the rest of the money was going.
 
Might as well have not been there,didn't take control of the game or the kids when they were losing their heads

Didn't look remotely interested tonight. Passed backwards mostly and that free-kick in the second half was the laziest, couldn't-give-a-fuck, swing at a ball I've ever seen.

My sentiments exactly. He seemed pissed off as well throughout the game which can only have a detrimental effect on the team spirit.
Hope he turns it around quickly and can get back to his majestic ways .

Not the Yaya we know from last season, far from it. He simply was not good and let the game pass him last night. The fact Pep brought in Fernandinho speaks for itself. Yaya hasn't played any official minutes I think, so in a way you can't expect him to be tip top.
 
Played like there was a point to prove... That Pep had been right not to play him.

He was ok in the first half, actually swept up well and cleared a few crosses. Second half he disappeared.
 
I agree that he didn't contribute much last night. It was however a difficult game to come into and his fitness clearly isn't there yet. He was blowing half way through the first half.

Got a lot of work to do yet, has Yaya, but he may still have an input this season.
 
We had one unused sub, Yaya should have been pulled as frankly he was bobbins.
Give him a break it was his first appearance. I know he has little mobility these days but can still play a part. Next Saturday is a good case in point.
He is more likely to cause Palace problems with his passing and shooting then Ferno. This gives Agent F a rest for the next two games.
