yaya.....

My problem with Yaya is that the entire team has to be built around him, so if he decides to have one of his strolling days then we are completely screwed. A central midfielder who doesn't defend as part of the team is a real burden on the rest of the team, but he more than makes up for it when he's on a good day, but completely destructive on a bad day. A lot of the time I'd be far happier with a consistent 7/ 8 out of 10 player who we could rely on as part of the team, rather than Yaya's brilliant or awful individual efforts
I'd rather yaya, with an extra body in cm to cover him and let him go forward in those sticky away games
 
I'm not sure why we play Yaya in every game that he's available. Seems utterly ridiculous. Even Xavi/Iniesta sit matches. Either Rodwell starts to get games by Christmas or we need to consider dipping into the market for a formidable midfielder...

Agree 100%, i'd love to see us pick up a major upgrade on Garcia in the January transfer window, if we go with the 4-3-3 system away from home that we used v chelski, we wouldn't even have to risk pissing off players over game time, someone like Illkay gundogan would be nice, he really looked like he enjoyed playing at eastlands last season :)

Now I know this is not really in the spirit of the thread but I am sorry......................... the bit I have highlighted in bold I read as cm for centimetres and couldn't work out how an extra body in centimetres would be stuck to YaYa and help him!! Sorry but I read the sentence three times before I cottoned on................ yes I know I am slightly silly but that's life as we know it Jim.

Why wouldn't a player move quickly to discredit rumours about his future. Especially when he's miles away from Manchester and won't have an opportunity to address it to the media in a presser?
 
Yaya.,will be going nowhere. Who else would pay him those wages. Top teams seem to have all action midfielders who can run , tackle, cover, head etc. He will sit it out don't worry those of you who rate him in the same breath as colon bell sorry Colin.

I doubt if Yaya himself sees the captaincy as anything other than a token of respect to his great skill and the way he conducts himself. Kolo used to joke about the contrast between his brother's awesome build and his laidback demeanour!
At places like Sunderland with their rabid crowd and Poyet bawling his troops on, you need a commander-captain with fire in his belly. Either James Milner or Zaba could've done the job well . In fact neither was even given the chance to lead by example with Milner not switched to midfield till Garcia couldn't continue and Zaba kept waiting in the wings for 70 minutes while Micah Richards farted about in showbiz style-yelling for invisible handball, ludicrous diving, giving Navas instructions he'd failed to fulfil himself etc.

I have some good memories of Marsh as a player but as a pundit he's a complete irrelevance. Feels obliged to say something controversial now and then to keep up the maverick image and ensure the next pay cheque. Pretends he's ITK but totally superficial.
 
I remember at one of the last African Cup of Nations the Ivory Coast manager literally played Yaya as a second striker up alongside Drogba and he was outstanding that day - although I cannot remember who the opposition was, still I also think Yaya would be brilliant upfront in the last 15mins of a game where losing or if we are struggling to break down the opposition like Stoke away for example. Of course his best position is still as a sitting midfielder.

Actually I have been supporting Citeh since I was 4yrs old, was at Newcastle away, when we won the league. sat on the back of a tunnel in the scoreboard as a 5 yr old, in the platt lane when we returned to the old div 1, season ticket in the north stand at 12, 28 progressed to fighting utd fans in the kippax at 16 . travelled the land and the seas in the 80sand 90s.

Yaya Toure is over the hill ,we will continue to lose games with him in midfield, his legs have gone. He has scored under 30 league goals in 7 years, Doesnt give a shit about City, remember his threat to leave last year.
By the way to those idiots who replied to my last post so poorly, I was there when Colin Bell made his comeback against Newcastle, he was quicker on one leg than Toure on 2.
72 League away grounds watching City. Morons

Watching Citeh or City?
Difficult to believe a true Blue would insult Colin the King.

Colin Bell is the best player I have ever seen playing for CITY, Citeh is irony, dear, at the replies to my post.

I can assure you you will get a medal when you have watched them as many times as me.
