May be something like "PSG is a great club and its honor to play there...but I am happy at city and would love to end my career hereadrianr said:blue5ter said:This is a non-story. He was asked by a French radio station if he'd ever consider joining PSG. What do you think he's going to say ? 'No, never, I wouldn't even consider it' ?
I read his comments as being polite by taking into account who was asking the question. No different to if an Italian station asks if he would ever consider joining Juve and he doesn't rule it out and complements their team
As others have said he's 30 and has a contract for several more yrs with us. I really wouldn't worry about it
I would however of course consider that whilst the overall age of our team, including our stars, is pretty young, Yaya is just about the oldest and will need replacing sooner than most others, which won't be easy
It's great how things like this can be blown out of proportion..
Interview: "So Yaya, if you were no longer at City, would you ever consider joining PSG?"
Yaya: "What the fuck would I want to do that for?"
Not likely, is it?
No PSG can never have him. I want Yaya to become a club legend at City. I think he will be a great player over the next 3 or 4 years and he should retire here at City and then maybe work with the management.

You can never find a player like him who at 30 still has so much pace and power, and who is technically improving as he grows older. That ball for Negredo against West Ham was unlike anything I have ever seen in football.

Ok, name me from the top of your head a better long range pass than that? Xavi, Pirlo, Xabi Alonso, Scholes, Fabregas? Have any of them ever completed a similar pass, I don't remember. I can only remember one from David Beckham at Madrid but even that was more of a cross.

look mate I'm just laughing here not trying to start a row, you didn't say best long range pass you said that pass was unlike anything you have ever seen in football, it was a great ball i admit just thought that was a bit OTT, id say things like Ibras goal for the dutch club or Peles dummy past the keeper, Maradona V England or Ronaldo goal v Porto not a long ball that found its man, but hey you enjoyed it and so did i
go on youtube and type Glenn Hoddle if you like a nice long pass you will love him

Yes it probably was a bit unclear what I said. Isn't Glen Hoddle the pundit with long hair? Ok I'll check.

There is always that pass:
Silva to Dzeko in the humiliation of the scum last season. Best pass I have ever seen.

That was so good too. The fact that it was on the volley and he didn't really have to look up made it all the better.

Rooney can play a decent pass

A thing of unparalleled beauty, skill, awareness and execution. It is the most fantastic piece of play in a game which will go down as one of the greatest in City's history. I defy any blue to watch that pass and not experience a warm feeling of pleasure and delight coursing through their whole body.
Just me then.

Back to Yaya:
I don't think he feels more strongly for this club than any other he has played for, and he left them didn't he?
I think he won't see out his current contract with us, will leave summer 2016 at the latest.
We will fetch a good price for him while we can, as I see his physique and thus quality go down steadily over the next couple of years.
He's a brilliant footballer, but I am certain that once we decide to let him go, we will have made sure we do not become a weaker side.
But for now he's ours, and an important part of the machinery.

Quality....just f***ing quality. I'd forgotten the West Brom goal (at 35 secs). Not unlike Ballo's 'why always me' goal against the rags.
