Which is the best fruit an apple or an orange? Pmsl some of the threads on here.
Special mention to the poster who said YaYa wasn't even on the level of Ferny or Gundog.
Holy fucking christ.

Yaya is an all timer, which we’ve had a lot of recently. But he dragged us to success. Him coming off against QPR is like KDB coming off in the CL finals. But we got to those positions because of these players.
Yaya vs Rodri. Just enjoy Rodri.

Touchy ;)Similar doesn't make for a good comparison. And I would suggest your last words on the post add fuck all to the debate.

If Pep could choose between Gundogan and Yaya, would he go for the latter?
I suspect it would be the opposite. Gundogan 's intelligence, ability to control games and leadership meant a lot to Pep and the whole team.
I would loved to have seen Pep have Aguero from day one, he would have made him the best player in the world for me, he was brilliant but could have been even better if he had looked after himself better in those early seasons.I'll put my tin hat on...
In my opinion, Kompany was a 21st century Andy Morrison. The heart of a lion, a true leader, and as brave as anyone could be.
As a centre back, compared to players like Dave Watson and John Stones, I thought he was quite limited, but his main strength was that every player who played alongside him became a better player. He genuinely lifted those around him.
Aguero was, quite simply, a genius. From his first kick in a City shirt, right to his last, he was a joy to watch. Right up there with Maradona and Messi in terms of ability. We'll never see a better forward at City than Sergio. He was the best.
He was injured so much and a lot could have been avoided if he had looked after himself better in terms of diet and training.

Yaya was the more exciting to watch, Rodri is the better player.
Should we shoot you with a bow and arrow, a crossbow, or a blowdart? You should be more specific you know.Sorry, I just remember it being a fairly wealthy team.
I looked it up; Monaco.
Shoot me.

That's a fair point.
Blowdart on a windy day, please...
I can understand people arguing Yaya. I can understand people arguing Rodri.
Half-joking, Godri shouldn't be compared to mortals, even special ones.
LOL, the big fella won us the title almost single handedly under Pellegrini, Yaya was magnificent apart from his last couple of seasons.Rodri is miles better imo. Yaya had flashes of brilliance when he wanted to but often went missing
Yaya was a big game player, he was always there when it mattered and that's what great players do.

Ate this delicious apple some days ago and I just had to ask myself, would orange juice taste better if it was made out of apples? Not Apple juice, orange juice only this time orange juice but with apples. Makes sense doesn't it?After last night masterclass by Rodri it got me thinking...has Rodri now eclipsed Yaya Toure in that central midfield role ?
Yaya was a big game player, he was always there when it mattered and that's what great players do.
And Rodri is not?
Yaya would go missing plenty. He was a more exciting player. But also more frustrating. And when he went missing we really really suffered.
I honestly still can't decide myself, I keep bouncing between them. Yaya has the advantage of success not being taken for granted, that seems to be the bar of expectation for Rodri.
Completely different players for me. Yaya could do what Rodri does but not to the same level and same with Rodri doing Yaya’s role.
Yaya was playing in a much more transitional league though, football 10 years ago was so different and especially the Premier League.
Just glad I’ve had the pleasure of watching both of them at the peaks of their powers. (Though I do fear Rodri hasn’t even hit his peak, scarily)
