Fernandinho believes Yaya's defensive work rate may explain why Pep left him out of the Champions League squad.
Fernandinho tells ESPN Brasil that everyone knows about Yaya's quality on the ball, but he lacks a little defensively.

In other words, i've been covering his lazy ass for nearly 2 seasons, now. ;-)

If any of our players have earned the right to come out with that statement it's Dinho, poor lad is going to be in a wheelchair at the age of 40 after carrying that fat fucker for 3 years.

'Yaya Toure wants to earn a new deal with Manchester City and is looking to prove his worth to Pep Guardiola'

A NEW deal? Utter bollox. Absolute max is seeing out this contract, and that is highly unlikely.

Having had no takers on his current inflated terms, their strategy is to bleed us for whatever they can. Dax, they may all be mercenaries to a greater or lesser degree but this pair of piss flaps elevate leeching to an art form.
 
Glad to hear he wants to fight for a place on the team sheet. He's lost a few pounds and looked more mobile again, up to Pep......if he's doing the training and sticking to plan he'll play. Wouldn't surprise me if he played the derby.
 
Mancini: "We [Inter] had almost sealed Yaya's purchase a year ago, then he preferred not to betray Manchester City, where I took him."
Mancini: "Toure, like Ibra, is one of those players who can make the difference, who can change the outcome of a season by themselves."


As much as i love bobby he must be talking about the yaya he remembers and not like he is now

I agree that it's a shame but I think it's mostly because people are so easily offended.

Some people want to believe he's lazy and that he has his agent speak for him. I choose to believe that he's just slow because he's aging and he sees he accepts agent as he is (i.e. a great guy for getting him deals/wages but one who comes at the cost of talking shit and upsetting some fans). Who knows who's right...none of us are close enough to know.

At his best he was great and I hope that'll be what we remember as the years roll by.

Yes totally agree, I think back to how he used to dominate games and some of the goals he scored like the Newcastle away goal and that's hopefully how I'll remember him. I think pep / txiki have done a great job with the squad to put us in a position where we can move on with as little fuss as possible now.
 
The sight of him thundering down on goal virtually diminished over the last couple of years!

"I can't really blame him" Really? Well I can mate. A multi millionaire who's fucking stealing a living at the club, represented by an avaricious c££t of an agent who's more stubborn than the average shit stain on a white towel in a 30 degree wash!

You won't find anyone on here that hates Yaya more than me...but we gave him the contract. He is not stealing a living; he is seeing out his contract. As a ridiculously rich man, it does seem odd that he wants to piss away what's left of his career but that is his call...and honestly is anyone surprised considering his character?

I am sure that players are lining up to work with Seluk [sarcasm]. He was successful with Yaya because Yaya was a one of the kind midfielder and we were willing to swallow his shit to get Yaya for when we had to pay over the going rate for talent. No player in his right mind will go near that guy after the shit show of the last 4 years.

I find the hate for Yaya nauseating and clearly unequally metted out.

I can't stand his agent, but outside his excessive bluster, all he is really doing is trying to stump up a market for Yaya - I.e. His job.

Seeing as most want Yaya gone, and his agent is doing his damnedest to get him a deal somewhere else. I think he and those who want Yaya gone are actually on the same side.

It folks would just stop, take a Second and think about it rather than pull out a knife on autopilot anytime Yaya comes up :(

What about what he did after his brother died. You have been defending this piece of shit for a long time. How do you defend using the death of your younger brother to get a move/payraise?
 
Dax777 said:
Yes I can see how a potential suitor can be put off.

I'm just of the opinion that the agents who do these kinds of things the most often also have the most clients.

And that is why in this particular case you are wrong, even if in general you are right.

It doesn't upset me when people label Yaya. It's the uneven treatment that upsets me. I like fairness.

For what its worth, none of our players give a fuck about you or me. So that's a redundant point. All our players are highly paid professionals who would all leave if we asked them.to do it for free. So no, they don't love City like a fan. I reckon most have enjoyed there success here, and appreciate the support. But it's w job for all of them.

Nigel epitomizes this idea. He played his heart out for City and loved it here. But the minute we were offering a deal below his expectations, he made for the exit door. They all will in that scenario. So labeling one a mercenary (silly goobers comment by the way). It's a fucking job and they all do it for a pay. In the absence of which they'll leave.

Name one player besides Tevez who has acted in this manner since Bobby got here.?

I call bullshit on this one pal, read my posts for the last 2-3 years, trust me you don't even come close.
 
Yaya has served us well and will be a club legend, but i have had enough with his agent, yaya isnt a kid that he does not have any control over his agent who can drag us through dirt whenever he pleases, if yaya wants to stay first he should give a shut up call to his agent and work like everyone else works
