Yaya says Pep "does not like African players" - Pep says "he's lying and knows it"

The perfect fumble said:
I lived in Nigeria and travelled Black Africa quite a bit, What Yaya is doing has nothing to do with the colour of ones skin and everything to do with being Black African, that's why countering Yaya's bullshit with Sterling and Sané is a waste of time.

He mentions skin colour in the interview too.

“He was cruel with me. You think Barcelona could have done that with Iniesta? I started thinking if it was because of my skin colour. I’m not the first to talk about these differences in treatment. At Barça, others asked themselves that."

Well this is why it might blow up in Toure's face. If the FA investigate, and they find no evidence (which I'd expect) or Toure fails to respond, I would demand a public apology from him. If that isn't forthcoming, then court action could be a possibility. There's a zero tolerance policy on racism at the FA and that includes (or at least should include) false accusations.

It certainly should. Racism is horrendous but that makes being wrongly accused of racism horrendous. If there's there's nothing wrong about going around calling people racists, there' n wrong with racsim.

That's because Yaya is all over the place, but it's the Black African card he's playing.

Pep should just see his lawyer and sue him.

Used to love Yaya but that’s all forgotten for me. What an absolute tw*t of the highest order for the way he has gone on

Since he's first phenomenal season with us its been constant moaning & media attention now this. I'm delighted the man has gone & I won't think twice about him.
 
pep should get the lawyers in and get a full apology from both yaya and the agent. its wrong and the hurt just for being called a racist last forever. what on earth is yaya thinking off ok maybe a little hurt about not playing but still got well paid for do nothing and the team and the season we had shows pep was right about playing our best team and getting 100 points and score over 100 goals and win a league and cup double so i don't see yaya point at all about not being picked

you must keep the respect you built up with so many great times and moments that can not be washed or rubbed out of the club history the fans have taken you to there hearts. and will be forever grateful for what you did and the keys to manchester city doors will unlock all doors. so leave with a blessing and grace and don't tarnish the fans love

pep is a great man and i will know he is hurting right now and the racist card you have used on pep is the lowest off the lows yaya. good god man what are you thinking off its a dirty trick to go and call somebody a racist when clearly its not true. think of the hurt you have done to pep and his family and to do that sort of thing in public and in the media is shocking and if i was pep you would be up in court right now

Having just bothered reading the article, I see that Yaya does mention the colour of skin as a reason for his feelings. To me, this makes a difference. I wonder if the FA may feel obliged to investigate these comments, after all they got stung recently on the very same issue. The PFA should be in touch with him too. Nobody should be allowed to claim discrimination without proof, it's disgusting and debases real life cases. They could pursue him over this. Either that, or they just think he's a tool, like the rest of us do, and are giving him a wide berth.

I am 100% convinced Yaya will be hearing from either City's legal team or Pep's personal lawyer. Pep has refused to respond publicly which I think is right but there is no way this just gets ignored. The lawyers will be insisting Yaya makes a full retraction and gives a public apology under the threat of legal action, absolutely no doubt. You don't get to make completely baseless claims of racism against public figures like that and it go unchallenged, not a chance.
 
Even though yaya doesn't have a go at the club its bad press around MCFC, we don't want it and yaya should have respected his time at city and the way he was very well looked after ( now financially even more secure ).

Maybe if he felt this way he should have thought about it longer and said his bit in 12 months or so that way it would distance it a bit more from the club.

But instead he has gone for the instant tantrum making acquisitions that cant be backed up. Also the daft comments on how pep plays mind games with players and a few of the players are unhappy with him.

When you complain about somebody then moan yourself and make up stories yaya, people soon sniff out the truth and who the culprit is !
 
As an aside, loving that De Bruyne blends loyalty, passion for his club, manager and team mates so eloquently, real future Captain material, first rubbishing Toure's accusatory guff and coming out in support of Pep, and also this piece supporting Stirling. More of a club legend in my eyes already than Toure could ever have been.

Surely the poll referred to above can be seen as evidence of reputational damage. Thus, improving MCFCs/Pep's claims to sue Yaya and Seluk.
 
I think if there were any history of Pep and racism, it would've cropped up many, many years before now. That black players are already rubbishing Yaya's claims indicates that this is more to do with Yaya and Seluk having an axe to grind, and giving the history of the pair with regards to inflammatory statements fired off to the press, this stinks of Seluk, creating an almighty stink to extract some more money out of Yaya. Pathetic.
City fans, almost to a man forgave Yaya over his previous cake incident, and even made light of it to give him a great send off. Then Yaya does this, sooner he fucks off to China the better. a sad end to a great career.
 
Fucking sad end yaya!
Did some great things for us but this sorry episode lacks class in so many ways!
Great player on his day!
Totally let down by poor decision making by both him and the shithouse seluk.
Can fuck right off for me now!

Well spotted.
 
I will try to find a different reason as to why Pep may not like African players. The reason I have come up with is "that of the African Cup of Nations", which takes place every 2yrs in the January & February. Is this the reason that Pep does not like African players is that he will lose any African players that he has for those months of the year.
