Yaya Toure - 2016/17 performances

[robbieh]

Wonderful footballer. At his peak a few years ago there were only two better. Exquisite first touch, knows what is going on around him, decisive forward passes which pick up the tempo. Pep will have to use him sparingly given his age but he looks pretty fit.

All he has to do is work hard and do the little things. He did them tonight, and it really showed.

Top performance today, still has a lot to offer this team. Big performance needed from him at the weekend.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

Best game since 2014.

Was just about to say the same. I can't remember the last time I saw him this fit. Pressed really well and dictated the tempo.

Still by far the best passer of the ball in our squad, makes some of the other players (some fans favourites and some tauted as world class) look like amateurs when it comes to passing

He made more tackles tonight than I can recall him making in a match even at his peak for us, great to see him somewhere near his best.

 

[bondsman]

Man of the match for me last night.

 

[wattle]

If we'd just signed someone and they put in a performance like that we'd be jizzing our pants. Considering most of us thought he'd never play again for us, it makes the gunda injury blow a whole lot softer

 

[City_Sean]

Really pleased for him, he put in a proper shift. Was quite surprised that Guardiola played him as the deeper midfielder mind.

 

[Hungarian blue]

It's funny, this. Now with Dinho and Gundo out against Arsenal, I guess it makes him a definite starter against Arsenal.
