Re: Yaya Toure

Can we not just stone him , in Dark Ages stylee then burn him with fire ?

If he returns from the dead then he's a wizard and we can burn him again ??

Yaya would make a wonderful wizard.

Well, he is a massive wizards sleeve

Is there a better expression in the English language than 'wizard's sleeve'?

Re: Yaya Toure

Yaya won't be worried about ruffling the Club's feathers despite the bad behaviours of Toure and his agent. The Premier League is a ruthless game and "holistic" and #together are out of town.

Did Txiki think twice when unloading Kolo?
Was Pellers worried about giving very few English players a game?
Did the City PR manchine show restraint when they wanted every man and his dog to believe that Mancini was the only person in the world who couldn't keep the squad happy?

I trust Pellers, Txiki and co to keep on doing a good job as their decisions have been mainly in our interests.

However, let's not kid ourselves that Yaya is the only person ruthlessly pursuing his own objectives.

£50m sale or Yaya's going nowhere. If PSG can't pay up then he will be at the Etihad next season.

Re: Yaya Toure

So the latest sound bite to French media " it would be an honour to play for PSG"
From the Guardian....

“Given the goals of Paris, how could you not be interested in a club like that?” Touré told France Football. “PSG have become one of the strongest teams in Europe. It would be a honour to one day play for a club like that. If I can be of service [then good].

“Given the magnificent season Manchester City have had, everyone talks about me and everything is open. My agent, Dimitry [Seluk], is hanging on the telephone and he knows what he has to do, I have complete confidence in him. Nobody knows what can happen tomorrow, my attention is on the World Cup and we will see afterwards.”

Regarding Barca, who Touré played for before joining City, he added: “Yes, I have said I would like to finish my career at Barcelona. You never know because football moves quickly, you never know.”

Seems like that using cake as bait doesn't work, so he's had to rebait the hook with a different worm... A big fast slimy one, holding a telephone..

Sounds like a fukin whore is a fukin whore

Re: Yaya Toure

If all the stories are true as to him saying Paris would tempt him then we should sell. We don't need another season where players heads are elsewhere or there are factions in the squad. Yaya is supposed to be a game winner, our star midfield engine but with these comments he sounds pathetic. He is already paid a ridiculous amount because the club value him so highly, the fans loved him but he has basically said "give me more money or I am gone". So he goes. We can easily find a couple of players that will add to our squad. We may lose something in the short term because he is such a great player, but you can see from Atletico Madrid what a tight and hard working squad can achieve. We remove Yaya we at least remove the tension and animosity and we get rid of a player who it seems may disrupt things within the squad.

I think 'clown's pocket' and 'plasterer's radio' give it a run for it's money.

Re: Yaya Toure

We cant be soft and sell him, we need to make a stand so any other player who thinks about tying this shit will think twice, if he doesn't back down and publicly apologizes AND sack his agent then send him out on loan next season to New York/ Melbourne City on tell he has a change of heart, if he doesn't then he can stay there for 3 years out of our way, we might lose short term but i bet any other player thinking about acting up would fall in line

I also bet any other top player weighing up a move to Manchester City would start having second thoughts if we went down this road.

It's a nice idea in theory, but only serves to damage City in the long run and that's why there's zero chance of City pulling a stunt like that.

• * He goes now for big money.
  * He stays for another year with an agreement that leaves next summer for a lower fee.
  * He stays for the rest of his career with the promise of an ambassador's role.

Those are the only realistic outcomes.

Re: Yaya Toure

Looking out side at this fucking awful weather I wouldn't mind being in Paris, Texas myself right now.

I don't normally let the UK weather get me down, but it's like February today ffs.

I disagree. The flapping and flopping inherent to a wizard's sleeve compounds its comedic currency to elevate it above all pretenders.
