Yaya Toure - 2016/17 performances

[Easy]

Another great performance.

Long may it continue!!

 

[Gundogan's Moustache]

Will prove a Master stroke to bring him back

 

[CityFan94]

Yaya's form and fitness is night and day from last season.

Great management from Pep and fair play to Yaya for getting his head down and working hard.

Here's a question.

If he keeps this form up, do we extend his contract a year?

Here's a question.

If he keeps this form up, do we extend his contract a year?

He'll be off I reckon, Seluk won't get much from (likely) a 12 month extension on a reduced wage.

If he keeps this form up, evidence of a change of attitude and IF we can reduce wages I think it's a no brainer despite his age.

It will cost a hell of a lot more replacing Yaya with a player with the qualities he has.

I can only think of Kroos who is comparable in controlling a game from deep.

We'll have to reduce his wages, he simply won't be able to play every match like he used to.

Yeah, a lot of ifs and buts at the moment but certainly something I think could be worth looking into.

 

[CrownPointBlue]

Peerless in world football.

The new old Yaya is worth 12 more months. Pep knows how to use him & I think Yaya wants to go out on a high & understands Pep's decisions & authority.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

Here's a question.

If he keeps this form up, do we extend his contract a year?

Absolutely.

I was one of his most vocal critics last season and was adamant that he would only get worse. More than happy to admit that I was wrong.

He might drop off again before the end of the season but I think his physical improvement alone shows that he knows that he really has to knuckle down to show that he's still worthy of earning big money, whether it's with us or someone else after the summer.
