Yaya

If he doesn't play, some of the other boys will really need to sharpen up their control and passing: only Yaya and Silva were consistent enough in that regard at Wembley; Aguero was OK but touches it far less. We need our big players fit and firing if we want to move up the table.
Spot on OB1, again he will be key in our run in, especially in the absence of KDBRUYNE.

I keep having this fear that United could really put a run together for top four, despite all the criticism they have been receiving.
 
I seriously believe some people forget what they write.
And what Yaya has done in a blue shirt.
I can't believe people were knocking him again on here straight after the match. And they were peddling the "Yaya sulking picture".
They seem to follow whatever the media spout very closely and often post it word for word on here.
Yaya haters seem not to like Sterling too much as well, again straight from the media's mouthpieces.
I'm going to continue to enjoy watching the big man and his vital contribution until the end of the season. Leave the haters to the match day threads calling him a "****".
 
Unfortunately some of the haters are also at the game calling him too
I was at the Spurs home game, and about a coupke of mins in, not much longer Yaya went up for a header with one of their centre backs. The Spurs defender had a run at it as well. Anyway, defender won the header and down in front of me some bloke shouts 'Yaya you lazy fucking bastard'. Clueless, and unfortunately indicative of a lot of our supporters now.
 
This is the part I disagree with. No matter what your opinion of him and what you say on here, what use is booing one of our own?
Indeed
I'm sure they cook the Big Macs quicker with their 'customers' constantly shouting abuse at them, and go home feeling "well that was worth it"

He gets dogs abuse whenever he doesn't come out on top, he's lazy too but when you look at the match stats he's normally top or second in ground covered, first in passing and first in pass completion
And let's forget all the pivotal games he's won for us
He's one lazy ****

funny how such a lazy bloke is always free for a pass, he must just be lucky!
 
I thought he was excellent on Sunday, and he'll be a huge miss tonight if he's not fit (assuming he decides not to revert to disinterested mode). He brought a power and control to proceedings that the dippers could not contain


Rewatched normal time last night and it brought home just how well he contributed on the ball. As Nev Knev pointed out, it helped that the team shape wasn't reliant on him haring about chasing the ball thanks to all the work done by the Ferns and Sterling. When he is good, he is on a different level to most players; thankfully, in their own way, players like Silva and Aguero can operate at a similar level but his combination of touch and power is almost unique.
 
Disappointing to see how smart the lads looked to and from Kiev, in their TM Lewin suits, waistcoats and ties - then Yaya saunters up with his top button undone, tie half way down his chest and no waistcoat looking like he's been up about 5 minutes. Not very holistic.
I wouldn't know if he had or hadn't recently but I'm aware Yaya does/has suffered with Migraines and maybe had just woken up after a banging headache or from some side effect of Migraine medication?

There's no proof he might of just had bad migraine on that day but there's a possibility there.

We're all allowed to feel like shit are we not from time to time?
 
Matt Dickinson, chief football writer in the Times, says today that Yaya should have been sent off for what he calls a "filthy and spiteful lunge" at a Liverpool player. Filthy? When do hacks use such abusive language towards players except if they are towards City? After what Aguero and others have to put up with on a weekly basis, too. Would he ever call United or Liverpool players filthy?

I think to call a player's actions "filthy" is far beyond the bounds of critical reporting. I would write in to complain but they don't print such letters.

No one has ever argued about his quality on the ball. It is his work off it that is a problem.
 
Think he has played really well last 2 games. Helps when Fernando and Fernandinho both play and are able to do his running. Hopefully he is fit tonight and same team except with Hart back.

Also, why no mention of the Liverpool tackle (forget who it was) early in the game. It seems to be only City players who commit filty fouls. Mind you some on here deny there is an agenda.

There may well be but not a lot anyone can do about it so I tend not to think about it too much. In fact I don't watch Sky Sports News and don't read Newspapers any more as they were just winding me up. It was a good decision!
