I don't see Yaya's body language on the pitch telling me he is disheartened at all. We know he has a demeaner that is very laid back. He never has been the player to buzz about like a Milner or Tevez. When he first arrived, alot (including myself) took time to understand this way about him. When he does'nt have the ball, you could (if you did'nt know better) think he was lazy and did'nt care. However, when he has got the ball, well, we all know how good and devastating he can be.
When you talk about defending set pieces, the whole team can be called into question about not trying or concentrating as thy should be.
He comes accross at face value that he loves the club. He, along with Joe and Vincent are the first names on that team sheet Roberto pencils in week in week out without fail (assuming they are fit).
The whole team is not firing on full steam yet, and that's why I have a little smile on my face constantly at the moment, because as soon as we hit that button, we will blow all the other teams away. I'm more than happy to trundle along as we are picking up the points and sitting pretty in second, within 1 win points difference from the leaders until the REAL champions kick into top form.
I personally think the nerves of the Champions League is distracting the whole club and the sooner we have it mathematically impossible to progress, the better for us this season. I think that will come in the next match, and you may just find in our last match with the pressure off, we might just murder R Madrid at home.
But, as far as Yaya is concerned, I'm not worried in the slightest.
