Yaya Toure apologises

[Tugay One Cup]

As far as I'm concerned, there are two Yayas; the one we had on the pitch and the one off it.

The latter can go fuck himself.

 

[Barcon]

I only care about what he did on the pitch.

So did I until he called Pep racist.

 

[Tim of the Oak]

I see there are quite a few who have escaped the match day thread (I know it’s international break) to slate a Club legend.

The job of Yaya’s agent was to make as much money for him as possible. He took it too far with the birthday cake stuff as Yaya said.

I don't think anyone really gives much of a shit about the cake stuff, mate. That would be pretty low down on my list of gripes anyway.

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

Apart from the "5hough", obviously!

I found it very insightful ;-)

He's a pathological liar.

He seems to have omitted the points that really grinded the gears of so many Blues.

Accusing Pep of being a racist, directly out of his own mouth and just hours after our manager and the club went out of their way to show their appreciation of him.

In addition, accusing City of preventing him being at the bedside of his dying brother.

Pep purposely blanked him during the Brighton title celebrations, and Toure knows deep down what the issues are.

A man who claims he drank 10 fresh orange juices without vodka on the drive back up from London to see his 'friend'.

I'll summerize....full of shit.

Fantastic player but if I'd behaved like him I'd although rich as fuck wouldn't be able to sleep at night.

Players come & go but he dissed the club I've loved for 50 odd years...one a blue & all that...abuse the fabric and I'm done with you.

I do wonder if these comments are leading up to a book coming out.

And your take on him accusing Pep of racism?

 

[normskih]

I absolutely adore Yaya as a footballer for the club I love. Without him in the side we might not have won the title 13/14, but he hasn't half spouted some rubbish about Pep and the club itself (cake gate).

 

[Ban-jani]

Awesome footballer and a truly big game player that saw us win two league titles, an FA cup and 2 league cups.

Will go down as one of our best ever midfielders and for a few years, he was unplayable.

Complete clown of a man though, complete and utter tosser.

Hopefully a pay as you play comeback. We could do with him!

Yaya was out of order but Pep appeared to forgive him (given Yaya was welcome at Brighton) and so can I. Yaya’s big game performances helped to transform the lives of many City fans. Give me Yaya anytime over the likes of Jimmy Milner.

 

[Stiff Little Wingers]

Not sure why some on here place some sort of equivalence with what he DID on the pitch and what he SAID off it?
Are people really trying to balance the Cups and leagues he spectacularly contributed to with stuff he or his agent said?
Sorry, but I will remember the glory for ever.
Sure, it would have been nicer if he had the mindset of a Vinny or Zabba etc but isn’t that “flawed” character the same trait many great players have had?
Best to focus on the footy - that’s what we pay our money for

The latter can go fuck himself.

And what can the former do?

Quietly polish his medals.

The latter is insignificant for me due to the former.

For me he lost his legend title when he used his agent to slag us off, agents do as their employers tell them, i will always have great memories and when he realizes he needs to apologize he will become a MAN the legend

The ego boost that comes with being praised and respected like Kun, Dave, and Vinny are
