Yaya is irreplaceable whether that be for his moments of brilliance or his minutes of bone idleness. What this does is point out the fact that we have to prepare to be without him one way or the other and buying a Pogba or a Barkley would be a shrewd move
 
Re: Yaya Toure

The Manchester City midfielder, who previously claimed he would’ve been recognised as World Player of the Year had he not been African, has now attributed the lack of attention his country’s elimination from Brazil 2014 has been getting in the media down to race.

‘I desperately wanted the referee to spot the simulation of Samaras,’ told France Football.

‘Once again, the refereeing was not on our side. We had at least two penalties turned down during our game against Japan.

‘And this time, one is invented against Greece. Of course, it does not upset anyone because it only concerns an African team.

‘Who really cares about the injustices of an African team? This mistake deprives us of something huge. It is a scandal that unfortunately does not seem to bother many people.’

Yeah I hear wat ur saying definitely. The price pogba is valued at is crazy money as I'm sure ull agree 60m are they saying.. Plus juve don't need to sell where Everton could reinvest in the squad.. Would pellegrini be looking at a player like Barkley tho and with the price tag he's gna come with..

Did anyone consider that Yaya might be in mourning?
Something doesn't seem right and it probably will have a great chunk to do with his brother's passing. I'd hate to see Yaya leave this way, but I think the club is probably trying to wait this one out a bit since Yaya doesn't seem to be "normal" presently. It's completely understandable, but it also calls into question who's speaking to him at the side. Fernando and talk of more signings (that Argentinean boy), including Fernandinho playing more box-to-box seems to show that the club is keeping close tabs and having some backup plans too.

Was he in mourning last year too?

No clue. Can't say I've followed his personal life that closely. But, I just want to remind people lashing out rather harshly about Yaya, that they may be forgetting how much the death of a brother can affect someone or simply don't know how much a death can affect someone - since I honestly think a lot of people on this forum are probably teenagers. Yaya quite obviously isn't right and probably needs some medical help, or at least a good break with his close ones. Yaya lashing out like this, making these comments, can pretty easily be part of his grief and denial. Add to that, his money, time since Ivory Coast is out, and a wonderful transfer market British news media platform? It's a wonderful recipe for mental health to go out the window. This isn't precluding his already/probably big ego. Plus, City - like any company - probably is dealing with this very professionally. Which, ironically - in some aspects, isolates the grief-stricken individual instead. This matter needs to be dealt privately, which I think City is doing, while also looking at backup plans.

Of course, I can be completely wrong. But, I think it's better for us fans to wait it out. It may take a while for Yaya to return to being himself again.

I agree, embarrassing himself now.
 
Re: Yaya Toure

Wat ever has gone on this summer I don't know but surely if his brother was dieing city would of let him go and see him. Were normally good with things like that arnt we.
 
Re: Yaya Toure

On the bright side, I prefer this continual inane babel from Yaya than the behaviour of Suarez, although Yaya's mouth is only just forgiven because of his on pitch contribution. If this was any less of a player making these remarks, I'd be happy to tell him to either shut up or fuck off !
 
Re: Yaya Toure

yayas problem is if he has a colum in fra cnce football then he has to come up with something each week ? if he says nothing no one will read it so it has to be contraversal each time.look at scholes never heard a word all his career now he has his own colome you cant stop him talking shite

Why does this numbskull keep going on and on about race and African teams? He needs to give it a rest. If he's staying at City, I hope the club enforces a gag order and saves us all from hearing this rubbish.
 
Re: Yaya Toure

Does anyone think he may have mental problems? Fuelled maybe by the illness and subsequent death of his brother, maybe he's just lashing out at everyone and everything in frustration, I'm not making excuses for him but it might be a consideration, footballers are human too (apart from Suarez).

I'm sorry but this comment is so disrespectful. It's always easy for someone not of that race to tell someone else to not talk about there's or the problems that they happen to face. African national teams and African FA's face very real and difficult problems that their peers do not face which in turn affects the players. It's a fact that African teams are treated differently within the media compared to their peers and there's several great articles that cover this also.

It was a penalty anyway, he seems to be just covering up his team's shortcomings.
 
Re: Yaya Toure

I'm sure once he's had time away from football and had a rest, all this talk of being unhappy with City with blow over....I think he'll be a city player next season! ;)

Yaya focused on Ivory Coast in his France Football column. Nothing on City and the English press rubbished Sport's transfer request story.
