Yaya Toure signs one year extension.

If he won't accept it he will not get to stay,it's not that difficult

I'm not as bright as you though. Takes me a while to figure things out.

WTF is going on? New deals for toure and navas??? Hopefully bullshit

We could keep Fernando instead. Or do you seriously think we're going to get rid of 12+ players and buy new ones in to replace them? The best way to strengthen is to replace some on our current starters with younger/better/hungrier players and have those current starters on the bench instead of our present squad fillers. Add a few youngsters that are deemed ready and we have a much more balanced squad with deeper quality.

I can't see us buying in more than 5 or 6 and so we need atlas 5 or 6 to go. Better if the ones that go are the ones that can't contribute.

We offer him what we want and he either accepts it or doesn't and leaves.

No shit

I'll be pretty pissed off if this is true.

 

[PragueBlue]

No shit

Yep. We either get him for what we're willing to pay or he's off. It's a no lose situation for us really. Personally I hope he'll take the short term deal (if there even is one).

Happy enough with that, if he takes it.

Decent basic.

Fee per start

Fee per sub appearance

Fee per win,goal,position.

Fee per trophy

Best & most consistent player since he came back. Working his bollocks off in 96th & 123rd mins last week.

Still the best of his type.

Could you see Seluk, Toure taking a massive wage cut. Really. ?

You speak like the lad was a mercenary. He's been extremely loyal to us over the years and has earned the money he's been paid.

Then you have to also consider the fella has kids in local schools etc. He's not stupid, he knows his career is at an end. Maybe he's happy to take a lesser wage.

Pay him some respect before shiteing on. I don't give a fuck what Seluk says, Yaya has been a model pro and a legend and if he wants to finish his career as a blue, who are we to begrudge him.

That's all irrelevant. He's not good enough and hasn't been for 2-3 seasons. Not for a side that wants to challenge for the title. If we're preparing for a transfer window to set us up for next season then I'd expect Toure to be released, but if we're offering him a contract then it makes me wonder about our ambition for next season.

He's plenty good enough still for a squad place.
