Have a look

<a class="postlink" href="http://www.whoscored.com/Teams/167" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.whoscored.com/Teams/167</a>


He has the highest average pass per game 91 , the 2nd is Silva with 69 pass per game.

He is the 2nd best dribbler behind Aguero

The 3rd goal scorer

He is in midfield, he is likely to have the most ball time. Do those stats say how insicive those passes were, or how many were sideways or backwards.
We are not a dribbling team, we are a quick pass and move team so I wouldn't expect great stats from anyone in our team on that front.
Goals scored, were hardly banging them in from all over like last year. We have had mixed fortunes with strikers this year, so again, not surprising.

You hang on to your stats though as you obviously take comfort from them.

We lost the league when Yaya went to the African Cup, and it shows you how important is he to the team.

In the last 4 seasons we won the league twice and that was when Yaya doesn't have to leave us for the African Cup !

We also had a squad of players who gave a shit.

one of his main assets is his physicality but getting dominated by fellaini

Can play a great ball but other than that an absolute liability, completely unfit and lazy.

Absolutely pitiful desire.

he is being asked to do things he is not capable of...one defend and two defend high balls...he is so poor in the air for a big guy but we all know that so why ask him to do it....

and by asking him to man make fellani MP has nullified his attacking threat....

yet again Pellers has got it wrong again -you cannot ask yaya to defend......the rights of wrong of that are open to debate but we all know he is rubbish at defending, he always has been. so the common sense of asking him to do that is questionable in the first place.

Has to go. Passenger in a midfield 2 when we don't have the ball, front 4 bar milner are no better.
No work rate up top at all

Funny that considering guadiola had him at center half in a champions league final.

He can defend alright. He just can't be arsed.
