I don't get the whole thing about missing players for the AFCON. Every season players are mising due to injury, suspension etc, for 5, 6 or more games.
Worst case scenario these are the games he would miss:
13 January A Arsenal PL
19 January H Fulham PL
29 January A QPR PL
03 February H Liverpool PL
09 February A Southampton PL
There is the cup game against Watford but I've not included that as I wouldn't expect him to play in it. Of those 5 games does any of them fill you will dread with our squad? Even without Yaya I would expect wins against Fulham, QPR and Southampton and draws out of the other 2.
The only concern for me would be the Chelsea game on 24th Feb and that he might not have enough time to recover.
Maybe I'm an optomist but it might give us opportunity to look at at other formations as well.

You're right, but then again I wouldn't expect them to be a walk in the park with him on the pitch either.
