Re: Yaya?

Completely anonymous when United had 11 and was getting passed around with ease, then played much better when United went down to 10 and played a few perfectly weighted through balls, but then went completely missing again when United started attacking towards the end. Moving him further forward should mean we defend more from the front, but the opposite is true. He stops doing any defending at all and just strolls around. Lovely turn to skin McNair near the end, but he needs to do more defensively when moved forward, otherwise it defeats the point of taking off a striker.

For whatever performances you get from him throughout the season, you could at least put your house on him getting up for a derby to give the rags a good shafting. The fact he wont even give us that anymore is just another nail in his coffin. Yaya's City has had its day, time for someone else to step up in the center.

That's just crap after his performance today

Re: Yaya?

Once again he's obviously dividing opinion. I didn't think he looked particularly up for it until they went down to 10 and then he seemed to sense some glory. After the goal though, he went off again and was poor until his 2 chances late on - that said, if that turn and shot had gone in it would've been a worldy.

Re: Yaya?

Thought it was a strong performance from Ya Ya today, especially in the 2nd half, slowly but hopefully surely getting back to what we know he can do...

He got MOTM. Links up play very well, everyone just passes to him and he keeps our play ticking.

Who from?
His attacking was good. His defending was rank.
Push him up the pitch away from defending and we will have a good season. Him him in a defensive role and we will have a new manager in the summer.

Re: Yaya?

Looked to me that he was carrying a knock going into the game. He didn't look comfortable at all.

Since YAYA came to our club he has always been the same we should all know that and live with it, because he has delivered the trophies on the field while he's been here... A world class player on the ball and very average it off it that's YAYA
