Yaya Toure

He came close to scoring 3 times today.

He was the least of our problems. For me he was one of the better players.

Compared with

Hart- one shot to save. Can't do it.
Sagna- did he contribute anything offensively?
Fernandinho- fucking awful when he came on
Silva- contributed nothing other than the pass that indirectly led to their goal.
Nasri- back to his "I've got a good contract" worst
Jovetic- invisible.
 
From watching the highlights he looked better today than Monday . He does take time to get going in a season . I think the real Yaya will start playing in 4th gear next month
 
Given his overall fitness, he had a good game.
Appart Nasri's effort in first half, he's been the only one to have tested Begovic, and should have been given a penalty.
I hope we will bring him close to 100% by the time to travel to Munich, three weeks will come fast !
 
I do think City fans see Yaya differently to everybody else. On the phone ins I heard on Monday the pundits were raving about Yaya's performance v Liverpool when many inside the ground thought he was quiet.

Yesterday he looked like the only player who could have score for us and all I heard coming out of the ground was people saying how shit and lazy Yaya was. He isn't fit at the moment, looks half a stone overweight but when he gets himself right he'll be back to best.

Least of our problems yesterday

Agree with some of that...

Sagna... It was his debut. Put in a couple of thundering challenges. Only started coming forward when we were behind to support navas. I would rather he concentrate on his prime responsibility in defence at the moment like he did. Give it 4 games before he knows who is covering what in each situation.
Kolarov, on the other hand, was dreadful. Dodgy tackle that should have been a pen. 3 glaring errors defensively, the one that led to the goal simply would not have happened with clichy.

Jovetic showed some movement in 1st half hour then seemed to give up once he realised he was going to have the shit kicked out of him all day.

Stoke didn't fall into the trap of chasing out after the ball when we passed it back to the defenders to try and create space. This was a game for milner and dzeko to start, one of silva or nasri should have been benched.

It's not all about city. Stoke did a class containing job on us and teams capable of doing this will learn from it.
 
So it's yayas fault we lost.. Thank fuck for that.. I was beginning to think we had a shit side for a minute.. !!!


You must have seen a different game to me... Our best player by a mile.. Ok it didn't take much.. But still, best city performance by far.. !!!!
