I don't think Pep can find a place for Yaya at all. As an example just look at Stoke game and see how much our players ran and moved. When one of our players had the ball, 4 or 5 others were moving around very quickly, creating options for passing. When we did not have the ball, our players tracked back (!) quickly and with purpose. Yaya simply does not move enough, and I don't think he ever will be able to anymore. His time is over, sadly.I think Pep could find use for Yaya as a Plan B/C Striker - tall, physical & technical. As Striker against parked buses, he will hv least defensive work as well. He certainly cant play in Pep's midfield given his age and physical conditioning today. Maybe CB in few games? Certainly a valuable bench option, only if he has the right attitude and shuts his agent up! Else, Pep has no time to entertain non-sense!
Pity, coz he had Balon D'Or level talent!
Yep, only takes them a few months to forget how poor Yaya was with and without the ball last season.

I'll ne happy when Yaya, Hart and Nasri's situation of uncertainty are sorted. I wish them all well but I'ts becoming obvious that their days are most certainly numbered now. Theirs situations will be resolved quicker if they accept this and lower their wage demands to other potentially interested clubs. Won't be good for the club or the players if they miss this transfer window to languish on the bench, or worse still, be omitted from the squad altogether as Yaya and Nasri have been recently.
Bet it was you who helped get me banned John ; )Rag!

Pmsl. Guess I've been sussed then lolI tipped the mods off Paul. Said I'd seen you in the megastore buying an inflatable David De Gea doll with extra firm grip gloves!
At the centre of all the best things that have happened at the club in the Sheik Mansour era.
A truely wonderful player sadly past his best.
A little more respect and understanding wouldn't go amiss on here.
