IMO you can't, he is a one off, so enjoy his football, skill and goals while he is with us, hope that those goals helps us to sucess both on and off the pitch and when he hangs up his boots the club should erect a statue to a true legend and allow all those who have witnessed his artistry to wallow in nostalgia of a truly great professional footballer.

You don't need a like for like replacement, which is good as we'd never find one! What you have to replace is his main role to the team, which for me is his Xavi-esque controlling of the ball from deep. That is replaceable. What isn't replaceable is the combination of that and his physicality to break forward and score goals, but that can be recreated from various other parts of the team instead. Chasing a Yaya clone seems like a fools errand and an club that has ever tried it has usually struggled

As good as the finish was, who played that inch-perfect through ball? Can't wait to see a few of these kids make the squad in a year or two.

No one can replace King Yaya.There is only one Yaya Toure.

He will never be replaced, but we will move on like always and before we know it there will be a new hero.
