IF Yaya is now agreeing with what the agent is saying, it is the most transparent attempt at improving his contract so far. We forgot his fucking birthday? For fuck’s sake, is he kidding? - I doubt that they have birth certificates in the Ivory Coast anyhow, so we only have his fucking word for it. He’s just had a great season, we’ve just won the league, he scored 20 goals. His money grabbing agent will be prodding him saying ‘The timing is perfect Yaya my old son, we can leg them over one more time before you eventually fuck off to a warmer climate where it doesn’t piss with rain all the time’.
As I say, IF he’s complicit in this, I wouldn’t lose any sleep about him being sold at the right price. He’s a magnificent player, but they come and they go and when they start pulling these stunts, it’s time to draw a line. We’ll survive and who know’s, we may even end up better - Pogba and Barclay together would cost less in salary terms.
