Yaya Toure apologises

[Gray]

"I wish to apologise - on behalf of myself and those who represent me," said the Ivory Coast player.

So I take it that he is no longer represented by that despicable Ukrainian blob.

 

[Neville Kneville]

He should prove it by ditching the fucker.

Wonder if the rags have tapped up Seluk?

Another desperate huge pay offer?

If he did ditch him, it would make no difference, as they presumably have a deal. By the time it was sorted, Yaya would be gone anyway & playing for someone else.

It's all upto how Pep sees it.

 

[zabisgod]

Can't help but feel like yaya could have a big part to play for us this season? Am I wrong? Am I clinging onto the past?

Scoreflash.....

Pep 1 (Toure OG) - Yaya 0

 

[Mr Partridge]

So basically Yaya has swallowed his pride to try and get back in favour and his agent seems to be overriding him. I would be amazed now if Yaya doesn't ditch Seluk asap, he is destroying his career and his hard earned reputation, not just at City but who else is gonna take Yaya on now with all the baggage that comes with him?

 

[Didsbury Dave]

Haha. Yaya had nowhere else to go I suppose. His agent has worded the statement carefully to try to shift the blame on himself , when the truth is of course that every word that ever came from his mouth came from Yaya's.

Now we are out of the league cup he might get a couple of games in the FA Cup early rounds, and maybe a cameo or two from the bench when we are 4-0 up. If nothing else it looks good to the rest of the squad. But i doubt Pep is daft enough to pick him for any meaningful games unless we have an injury crisis.

Those vermin journos won't want to talk about anything else later. I hope Pep comes out and opens with "Apology not accepted until Yaya agent apologises. I will only talk about our match now."

He may refuse to talk about it full stop.

The rags?

Their PR team are probably already working on it with Woowar tapping is agent up. It's a good distraction from them playing shit last night.

Yes you are.Yaya is too bulky and doesn`t have the stamina to play under this new system.As much as I`ve loved Yaya one of his biggest faults was to slow the game right down,something that Pep hates.
He`ll get some game time, but IMO it will be minutes rather than hours.

Even better.

Shut it down, and move on.

- Seluk sent off for serious foul play and dissent..!

As a centre back....

 

[Tricky Dickys Right Foot Shot]

Funny how he apologises a few days after we beat Barcelona.... Still though, Pep will want to here the words come from Seluk....

Sorry Yaya!

 

[bluealf]

Perhaps the disparity in what yaya and agent saying is a ploy. Next a split from agent, saves face of agent, gets to play then when moves on they kiss and make up for the cameras having never been dropped in the first place.
Perhaps too far fetched, back to UEFA and conspiracy theories there

I would imagine you are not going to be far from the truth myself.

 

[SWP's back]

So they are saying different things now,i'm sure pep said seluk had to say sorry,over to you pep but i hope he sticks to his guns

It's brilliant. Yaya posts that and then his agent puts his foot back in it and fucks it up again.

 

[PragueBlue]

I hope Guardiola accepts it and we move on from this. I doubt Toure will get much game time anyway but always a useful option to have for cup games and from the bench.

 

[SWP's back]

Zabba is not what Pep needs, at all, but he was v Barca. He may not be getting the same compliments if he plays at Anfield or v Spurs.

That's what management is about. If Pep sees a hole Yaya can play in, he'll play. If not, he won't.

And nothing anybody on here says is going to change that, so they'll just have to lump it if Pep decides to use him.

Which he won't.

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Yaya is one pussy keeping that k_unt of an agent the time of day and bringing down his character! Why he doesn't sack the fucker I don't know.

Because it totally explains what Yaya is about - he will not criticise, condemn, or sack Seluk , which reveals everything about him as a person. A greedy self-oppionated cnut.

They are both complicit and should be told to fuck off imo - too little, far too late, and another non-apology !

Nothing new here.............................move on.

Yes thats a good option to have.
