Yaya Toure apologises

[Bewar3them00n]

If Mancini can hold firm in the Tevez affair, then Pep will have no issues here, Yaya's agent has again made it obvious what an arrogant prick he is, to all on Sky Sports no less!! And that Agents have far too much control over players.
Seluk made some twisted analogy to an errant child, and its Pep, the father figure that must apologise!
No Pep is making a bold, but correct step in laying down the law, getting rid of bad eggs / those not good enough, hopefully the rest of the Prem sits up and takes note, players, managers and agents.

Well, if Pep read my comments about me not being keen on him, he's done the one thing he could have to make me fall a little bit in love. About time someone stood up to camp Toure and made them realise they are not bigger than our club, never were and never will be. Should have been absolutely fucked right off after lying to the press about us not allowing him time to mourn his brother. Totally tainted his legacy.

Well done Pep, absolutely spot on.

 

[Guardiola's Disciple]

Fuck that, doesn't deserve the game time over any of them.

No, just for training.

 

[sir baconface]

You're all blue meanies for making no allowance for someone with a headache or his batshit nurse.

 

[aguero93:20]

No, just for training.

Why should they have to share their facilities with the fat disrespectful lump?

 

[Sam Armstrong]

About time someone stood up to camp Toure

Camp? Do you have some dirt to dish??

Just heard Danny Mills on 5Live. No prizes for guessing his take on the situation. Not been handled well....... obviously it's a player City want to get rid of, and this is our way of doing it.......Yaya had nothing to apologise for, it's his agent.

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Total respect to Guardiola on this. Top man

 

[Phil1]

Ha! Been busy all day and only just caught up on this. Read all the thread and have to say I'm shocked. Never saw this coming..

 

[malg]

Pep Guardiola. He don't take no shit from no one.

Especially that journo who asked him about winning four trophies, to which the reply was 'what the fuck' followed by a minute of silence. The guy takes no prisoners.

 

[Neville Kneville]

I wonder if this is also influenced by Mino Cuntface suddenly chirping up about Pep recently & he's decided to fire a shot across the bow of all of them. If agents want their players at City, they can shut the fuck up.

I'm 100% behind Pep but I'm not interested in hanging Yaya. When he goes, he leaves as one of our all time greats imo.

If being an arsehole was a reason not to acknowledge a player's achievements then many of the all time greats would have to be removed from history.

Yaya is an all time great & as big part of us winning stuff as any player. Sluggo is right about that bit.

Anyone still sticking up for Yaya should take note of the wage/oxygen thief's approval of his actions.

I only heard that on the grapevine, did Pep actually say "what the fuck"?

 

[BlueTG]

Pellegrini was too horizontal to care about the Yaya situation. Good on Pep.

 

[Citizen in Pakistan]

Sad to see yaya career ended this way but glad to know we wont have to put up with his piece of shit agent anymore. If yaya didnt contributed to city like he did i would have been tempted to terminate his contract after today's episode

 

[Neville Kneville]

Yes.

 

[simon23]

I don't think silence was required. Pep answered a direct question honestly and fair fucks to him for doing so.

I've been wanting someone at City to clip that fat prick's wings for a few years.

Im not disagreeing with anything Pep is saying but more thinking about that this could cause unwanted media attention and distraction when we don't really need it. Say what you want behind close doors and when the player leaves say it openly but while he is at the club then I think keeping it private would have been the best course of action.

Pep actually seems quite pissed off when he is speaking about it - again understandably but Im just surprised at the timing as weren't Seluks comments a couple of weeks back...wonder why he chose now to just blurt it out (or was it calculated?) cause of something that has happened over the last few days?,

 

[Didsbury Dave]

I think the point that some people are missing and what the really important statement is.... we now call the shots.....we are now bigger than any player... Recent results without our latest holy trinity have proved that.
You do it our way.....no compromise , as simple as that !!

It's more subtle than that. You can't play that card unless you are loved and respected right across the board. If you just start playing the "I'm in charge and you can fuck off" card to everyone it backfires very quickly. It can only be used sparingly. Pep's been decent and clever enough not to make YaYa the fall guy, as someone like Mourinho would, because he's probably liked and respected by the rest of the squad. The truth is his days at the club were over the minute Pep arrived, and he's obviously playing silly beggars behind the scenes about it.

I hope when he leaves the OS does some video's of him in his pomp,that's how i want to remember him

Absolutely. A lot of fans will remember that, but a lot won't and will now just ridicule and abuse him - that's human nature. Shame really. No matter that what his agent says, I'll always remember the semi final goal against those cunts, the FA Cup Final winning goal, the 2 v Newcastle, and that ridiculous goal v Sunderland and the Benny Hill goal v Villa.

It's all ending rather painfully.
