Yaya Toure

[Gorton_Tubster]

When I think back to the days when Yaya would be lying on the floor after a bit of exertion whilst the rest of the team are still working , it makes my blood boil. Thinking of him storming up the pitch jona lomu style makes me feel better.

Seems some people here are making the same mistake I made... Yaya looks lazy his work rate and miles covered actually tell a different story.

He is to old now for the sort of team we are now. But he is still good

Yep he's always been Lazy and was it Pep that sold him from Barca ?
Funny to think if Pep would've taken over 5 years ago we probably wouldn't have seen Toure and I'd have missed some of the greatest moments I've seen as a City fan
Timing is perfect isn't it :)

Lies, damn lies and statistics.

Dear me, why do people keep mentioning Pep sold Yaya as if it proves something?

Here's a quote from Pep Confidential about Tony Kroos. "He did, however, leave Kroos in no doubt as to his coach's high regard for him. Years before, at Barcelona, he had done exactly the same thing with Yaya Toure."

Pep didn't want Kroos to leave Bayern or Yaya to leave Barca.

Be interesting to see his game without the ball tonight.

very true...just posted about that in the pre match thread..Im not sure he has the intensity required...not through lack of effort but more that his legs won't manage it......just wondering if thats why delph and fernando are both in there to help cover for it...also gives fernandihnio a rest

Dear me why do people think someone was trying to prove something when they were just saying a jokey what if ?

Is he injured or something? Hasn't even been on the bench has he?

Reckon he will be moved on or will he retire at City?

So after having seen Yaya in tonight's game are there still people around who think he will be able to play a major role in our new high intensity system?

No way Yaya can fit in this system, has to be shipped out imo. Im not even sure we have a foreign spot for him anyway.
