Yaya Toure apologises

[aguero93:20]

Yaya's agent is clearly a tit of the highest order, but if it is true that the first Yaya heard of this is through the press conference I am not impressed by Pep's/ City's response.

So if your representative went on a public broadcast and badmouthed your Manager and one of the Directors at the company you worked for. you'd need somebody to suggest it to you before you realised an apology was called for??

yes it could get worse and maybe even a detrimental effect on the team , needs to be sorted soon as possible . but have to say i am 100% behind pep , toure and his knob agent need to be moved on as soon as possible

Its a shame its come to this with a player who has done as much as Yaya has.

Firstly apologize to the club, then to the players and then to the 'trainer' as he stated.

correct!

Any chance we could get a song going at Swansea calling Seluk a ****?

All just noise now.

Seluk has had his arse handed to him on a plate as well he knows.

Enjoy China Yaya.

Even if he said 'it's not fair, Seluk doesn't speak for me, why should I suffer?'

He can't say this. Seluk works for Yaya (or on behalf of him). It is up to Yaya to set the ground rules with his agent and tell him to STFU.

Yaya Toure has been paid close to a million a month by City since he arrived. Over 6 years that's 70 million. For some of that time he was a great player, for a lot of it he was a good player. He's been player of the year for the club once; 3 times fewer than Richard Dunne. And in exchange he's been paid 70 million. City owes this guy absolutely nothing, he's been more than rewarded. He is a wealthy guy. He doesn't need to mouth off, or for his agent to do it. This is a player not willing to work hard to be part of the team, which is disappointing. Taking the easy way out. Its very difficult to see how he can be part of the squad again.

To be fair, Yaya had Kompany, Silva and Aguero as competition. Dunney had Sun Jihai, Danny Mills and Jon Macken.

Until the last 12 months it has been a good deal both ways. Toure had been value for his wages and transfer fee and he has been paid well. It was always going to end like this with that agent.

To be honest though, despite being a fan of Toure, I am not arsed about anyone going nowadays including Hart and wont be overly bothered when the inevitable happens to Kompany and Zab in the next couple of years. They were all part of the journey but we are now at a stage where we all move on when it happens.
