Despite all his bellyaching, he should be up there.

We are Manchester City, no need to be petty and small time like Leeds were with Alan Smith.
 
Re: Yaya Toure

If as he says his focus is on the World Cup then why is he giving interviews about any subject other than the World Cup. The more he talks the more he is looking like a desperate man searching for another pay day. If someone coughs up a £50 million fee then I would say thanks and goodbye otherwise shut the fuck up and I would suggest his deranged 'agent' does the same.

I wonder if this played its part in changing Yaya's attitude to the club ? (It's probably already been suggested, but I am not going back over 500+ pages to check...)

If it did then he's even softer than I gave him credit for. Kolo was out of contract, wasn't playing regular first-team football, was available on a free (thereby boosting his wages) and didn't even need to move house. They've spent most of their careers living in different countries, so I doubt any of this is really a factor.
 
Re: Yaya Toure

if his heart isnt in it then i say we should sell. 50mil for a 30+ aged player is very good business in my eyes. yes he would be a very big loss, but if he stays and doesnt really want to be here, then his performances will surely drop and he may well become a liability. No player is bigger than the club. Id be more gutted if Merlin said he wanted to leave.

he could stay and help us win the champions league and become a proper legend, or he leaves with our thanks for his service and playing a major part in the most successful part of our history (so far) ....

I agree with all of that, but the fee won't be anywhere near 50m. I reckon we'll get 35m tops.
 
Re: Yaya Toure

If he wants to go, anything over 30m and I'd be happy. 31, signed a new contract last year and just had the best season of his career.

Unless it's PSG, I think we'll do well to get £25m

I agree with you to a point, however, Yaya might have been less willing to behave like an arsehole with his kid in town.

Anyway, I don't think we will be letting Yaya go unless there is a stupendous offer.

Good - so we'll let the club deal with the matter, lock the thread before the Stepford Wives finish screaming at absent fathers on Jeremy Kyle and come on here suggesting new tortures, and go to Wetherspoons as it's fucking awful outside.
I'll get them in.

The Huntington Post has a better handle on the goings on at our club than the MUEN. For what it's worth I doubt we will sell but I bet we are exploring swap options with Barca and PSG.

We won the title - MCFC, not YYFC - so I think that supersedes that twat and putting him up there would be yet another example of the petty and small time sesame street one of these things is not like the others attitude where our acts or omissions are conditioned by others cos we don't want anyone to say bad things about us mummy.

I know more than the MEN do about what's going on ... City have named a price for Yaya. Lets see if anyone comes to the party.
