Re: Yaya Toure

just putting the idea out there , but for the benefit of many it could be a good idea to close this thread as many are getting repetitive , and reopen it when YAYA has kindly told us where he wants to park his Arse

No that's no discussion about Yaya until after the world cup then......:)

Fuck that.

Some fella has split up with his mrs and De Niro has told him pics or fuck off.

Yes and Fetlocks thinks the fantasists reside upstairs.

You carry on making stuff up from your Parisian garret Billy, as it keeps us all amused in the absence of any real news.
Some folk may even take you seriously, although most are merely humouring you by now.
The only way to deal with this sorry saga is through humour, given that we know slightly less than fuck all.
It's just a pity it's not really a medium that you show any great prowess in.

Re: Yaya Toure

We don't belong here mate - let's go back upstairs, as I feel proceedings have just taken a detour down Silly Street.
We can always come back later and see how little we have missed.

Alright then, we'll stay for a while and watch folk make stuff up for attention, and see just how many gullible folk take the bait, but if it gets boring I'm watching the Homes Under The Hammer I sky-plussed yesterday.

Try Bargain Hunt mate, far superior.

Re: Yaya Toure

What's the price Billy ? If you can divulge of course

North of 40 million pounds. We're looking at the same money Paris have paid for David Luiz as a minimum.

Personally I think that prices Toure out of a move this summer ... but you just never know.

I'd still be loathe to let him go but one thing this saga has highlighted is the need to replace him in 2 or 3 years time anyway so if we can get something in the region of £40 million for him then we should sell him IMO. And if the interest is indeed from PSG then they shouldn't have any issue coughing up that much given that they've just paid around that figure for a clearly inferior, albeit younger, player.

Re: Yaya Toure

Eh?

He might be twat of the season, but he's without doubt player of the season.

Some on here would be so petty and small minded that they'd refuse to give him the trophy... like Leeds wanted to do to Alan Smith... SMALL TIME

Putting all this nonsense aside from the last week or so, while Yaya has undoubtedly been one of better performers, and 20+ goals from midfield - and a lot of them classics - is literally awesome (over used word nowadays), there were a few times when he didn't seem interested, so he doesn't get the Player of the Season for me. That accolade goes to David Silva IMO because he always shows up and makes us tick at least as much as Yaya, often playing the penultimate pass in the lead up to a goal or chance as well as the assists and that for me gives it to Merlin. Yaya only runner up for me.

Personally I think it's fair enough if he's not getting the recognition of a POTS award after what's happened.

Why? The season's over

Just look at the first few pages of this thread and what people were saying about him.

It is such a shame how this has developed. He will always be tarnished now, and will not leave the legacy that his ability deserved.

But I agree, given what has happened, no way does he deserve POTS.

As a player I would love him to stay. But given recent incidents, if we can get 40-50m for him from PSG/Monaco, we could do very well out of it. That amount of money for a 31 yr old is very good business.

Just such a shame for a player of his ability to become a bit of a laughing stock, and for someone who has done so much for us, and scored so many important goals (I saw a comment that said he is just a flat track bully, which is utter rubbish) to now be hated by so many of us.

In many ways he has been worse than Tevez.

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) ....

Hey stop the delusion who will pay 50m for him!?

As for Luiz you must know how the press like to increase the fees its less than thise 50m£ and part of its bonuses and teams buy expensive players its because of ma y things

Competition: If other teams are intrested

Overpaid to get it first

The fame of the player for marketing reasons teams

So imagine if brasil won the wc psg could end up with their 2 cb playing together

As for toure many didn 't guve a shit before he came to city and the way he is bitching to every club simply because no one is intrested so thats why he acting that way

The point is ... why don't you stick to threads you're actually interested in. You have said repeatedly that you're done with this thread, yet every day I find you here posting different versions of the same thing (much like everyone else), whilst trying to hold yourself up as something different.

Honestly you strike me as quite a tragic figure. Someone said to me recently your bitterness was a result of being a cuckold. I thought that was harsh at the time but I'm beginning to think they might have a point.

I'd take 40 million quid for Toure all day long. Not without having a decent replacement lined up, and lets not kid ourselves the man to replace Toure has to be decent, but that would be great business for a 31 year old. I imagine with the temper tantrums, Soriano will also remember Ronaldinho, and the point they really should have sold him but chose not to, only to sell him a poor season later for a fraction of the price.

Why? The season's over

For what it's worth, all this cake/PSG/Barca nonsense that has tripped out of Yaya's/Seluk's mouth is NOTHING to do with my thioughts on the season.
Yaya is a City Legend, whatever happens now. People don't have to like him or what he said, but remember,
*He scored the winning goal in the FA Cup Final
*Helped us into the Champions League
*Was a major influence in our 1st title for 44 years (remember Newcastle etc)
*Turned the league Cup final round with yet abother great goal
*Was a huge influence in winning the title this season (eg 2-0 win at Palace)

That's how I prefer to view Yaya, but he wouldn't be my player of the season for the reasons stated above. Those games when he could have done more are the difference. I don't think there is one game where Silva gave anything less than his best, despite the regular kicking. He just got up and got on with it and was just as much an influence if not more so, but in a different way.

It's about the season, which is over. At least Yaya has waited until then for him and Seluik to spout off, but I'm loath to give him too much credit for that. Each to their own IMO but Yaya's spoiled brat behaviour should not have a bearing on how we view he has played.

Sadly Mrs Fetlocks is all very much present and correct, albeit thankfully out shopping, but thanks for the concern.
I trust things are ok with you on the domestic front, only I haven't seen Dismal on here for a while.
The point here Billy, and one that sadly eludes you, is that there is nothing whatsoever happening here, so in the absence of anything tangible, some of us have a bit of a laugh to pass the time.
You should try it now and again - it's good for the soul.
And it beats the hell out of plucking imaginary transfer figures out of the air and pretending to be itk to impress naive female posters.
Now I'm off to watch Bargain Hunt as Len advised.

If the money reaches those levels City will sell.

The only thing we don't know right now is what Toure himself is going to do after the world cup. Him and his agent are more than capable of properly throwing their toys out of the pram.

Re: Yaya Toure

This s a disaster waiting to happen.

Toure is one of the key cogs in our team, anyone is replaceable but we don't want this dragging on until way after the world cup.

If he wants to go then we need to make swift decisions and be looking at quality replacements now. he replacemnet needs to be at least pushing similar quality and there aren't players out there that are easily got.

Last thing we need is this dragging on until August and our hand is forced into letting him go with little time to deal withthe situation, plus clubs knowing the score and ripping us off.

Re: Yaya Toure

MEN reporting this morning that we have no interest in selling him.

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.

What region is the price?
