Reckon it's true.
Very telling that the club made no fuss over him yesterday.

Really pathetic by the club if true. It was time to move on last Summer.
He's been a crutch to us but we need to say goodbye to him. He's not good enough anymore to play as a CM in a 442. He's on a shit tonne of money, he's getting on in years and his agent is a dickhead.
Pisscan knew when a player had ran his course and got rid. We are too scared to move on from Toure.
I was really excited to seeing a revitalised team but it looks like we will be clinging on to a squad that's ran its course.
Really weak from Txiki.

Well I'm going to be the contrarian here. Yaya is one of my all time fav City players and I don't believe he's 'lazy', his legs can only do so much.
But IMO it's a mistake if we keep him and it's short-term thinking instead of long-term strategy (hey, that pretty much describes our transfer strategy in the last few years). There are ALWAYS replacements out there. Sometimes you need to buy two players and rebalance the midfield, but there is always a way. This is our last chance ever to get a decent fee for Yaya and it + the freed wages could be used on some excellent emerging midfielders.
The 'we can't afford to sell [ageing veteran]' argument is a sentimental one IMO and ignores that there are brilliant midfielders out there who may not be as unique as Yaya but could possibly bring other things like the hard pressing we're fatally lacking in European games.
