I still feel this will blow over and yaya will vice captain us to our third title in four years.
He should never have been vice captain ahead of Zab anyway - bang out of order that! - He's hadn't earned the right ahead of Zab and he's a f*cking prima donna ....
Now way do I want to see this stupid c*nt leading the team out in Kompanys absence - that sends the wrong signal totally to the other players, the fans, everybody .... who the f*ck does he think he is ... we own the league, team went to Abu to celebrate and instead we all end up talking about some f*cking childish c*nt who's sulking cos somebody didn't wish him happy birthday ....
Pre-season:
1) Summon Yaya to office top speak with Pellegrini and Khaldoon
2) Tell him he's not going anywhere - he's got 3 years left on contract
3) tell him his barmy agent has no influence on how or what Man City do
3) Tell him Zab will be the vice captain
4) Tell him if his attitude isn't spot on he will 4a) be on bench or 4b) not be selected at all
5) Tell him to stop being a childish, selfish c*nt!

+1 from me too. The PSG stuff definitely seems to be dragged up from the past and a more recent interview with French media and means sod all.BringBackSwales said:blue_paul said:I seem to be in an ever decreasing minority of those who'd like him to still be here next season.
Footballers, especially those that get to the top of the profession, will be quite strong characters, verging on the narcissistic. We have a classic case here in Yaya. Having an ego that big is what has driven him to succeed and make him the player he is today.
I don't buy for one minute that he's been manipulated by a cunning, destructive agent. yaya is setting the agenda here and has made himself look very silly indeed.
However, this type of stuff goes on a lot with the elite footballers and I'm sure the powers that be at City will sit him down, give him a big hug and re-assurances and all will be fine come mid- August and our thoroughbred will be raring to go again.
There's no point cashing in on him because he's the best around.
We should get first option on the boy Barkley as we can make him a great player but for now, stick with the Ivorian and just put up with these rather idiotic outbursts. We'll have to get used to them with top players if we haven't already.
not sure if you are in a minority pal, I certainly agree with you, and most Blues I speak to are of the same opinion; however of the ones who post in here I would assess that we are in the minority; however it might be like the callers to 606, those who bother to call (or in this case post) tend to be those who have the strongest opinions, but not necesarilly the majority opinions - personally I think the silent majority probably wish that this would die down, that Yaya and his agent would shut up, and that Yaya is still doing what he does best next season, for City

A pragmatic view which I share. I can certainly understand why people are getting upset with Toure to a degree but as I outlined previously, that's the way it is with these precious elite superstars these days. Happens at other clubs and happens here too. I support Manchester City Football Club. I get behind the players who attempt to bring success to the club but it's the club that matters.
Yes, it would be nice if all players could be like a Zab or Komps and have a genuine affection for the club but Yaya or Tevez or the next prima donna can keep us quizzed over the summer months with thier ludicrous antics as long as they are guaranteeing us trophies. That's what matters at the end of the day.

Problem is for Toure, or those that want him to stay here, is that I don't think the owners, or the likes of Txiki are happy with that sort of poncing around anymore. Not very holistic. We might be hamstrung by the spending restrictions, otherwise I could see them letting him go. May still do that anyway.

It's no different to the people who said Mancini should stay, or Balo should stay ... they're missing the bigger picture of what values are important to Abu Dhabi and the owners.
