Do one you fool. Oh, and I would never bring anyone's family into it. If you want to start down that road then PM me, don't bring it onto the board.You can hardly get precious now after all the warnings you had dear.
That 30 second clip epitomises Yaya's last two years, yet you still feel the need to try and justify it in some way, more spin than a politician.
As for the Yaya argument, I've never defended his ambling around, all I've said about you is that you utterly hate the player, so everything you say is tainted by that hate. Why you're even allowed on the thread is beyond me, especially given your previous hatred and bile towards the player.

I was steadfast that I thought he should go after the cake incident and his first blow up. It was such a huge embarrassment to the club and he was at his absolute peak then -- could have been shifted to PSG for a huge sum of money.
I understand why Pellegrini plays him -- he still has amazing passing range and has a great shot in him. But you can't play him as a midfielder against a team like Real Madrid who have absolute world class quality there and whose players are hungry and willing to run. He can't perform versus them.
13/14 was his banner year for his career and it was because he knew that was his last gasp. He made huge galloping runs and was an absolute terror. The last two seasons, those runs just aren't there. You know if he picks it up in the center circle, he's not a threat to beat his man. He's going to pass it and it'll often be sideways or backwards.

I actually tried to PM you after you last spat your dummy out to apologise, just ask FantasyIreland but you blocked me. If you can't take it, don't give it out pal, it's that simple.
Yaya Toure is the greatest player to ever wear our shirt. There i said it. Honestly what an unbeliveable player, i actually think he is underrated by some blues for reasons i cant fathom.
Can you actually imagine a City side without him?! ....Scary thought isnt it.
The fear he inspires in other teams is huge- example-(<a class="postlink" href="http://www.theshedend.com/topic/24656-chelsea-v-manchester-city-pl-271013-ko-1600-bst/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.theshedend.com/topic/24656-c ... -1600-bst/</a>)- you just dont quite realise the impact he has. I cannot think of a player in that postion who does that. The scum are shit scared of him like you cannot believe.
Everything goes through him, he dictates games and destroys opposition.
The power, the passing, the inspiration to others, the goals, the ultimate big game player.
Yaya Toure...Citys greatest player.

Disagree mate at this point, it is like saying you married a super model and reached the dizzy heights of happiness only for her to cheat on you for two years in a 5 yr marriage. It may come to bear that he has done more bad than good yet, he's been untouchable and it's ruined his performances and potentially his legacy.
its not a marriage its a team sport and the whole team have let us down this season even the manager so yaya is in this with 10 others
but my point is the big times would not happen without yaya first the fa cup was won by is solo goal the 2 premier league titles was won by some big goals by yaya the league cup was won by a wonder goal so yaya done more for this club than most

I never wanted to see the back of a club legend, can't wait to see this one though, so how will he be remembered? Influential for a part of his time with us, as well as a lazy git, not legend, there are few games he has gone 100% on but a lot at 50% or less.
