Yet another crucial goal from him tonight.
I know he has his detractors, and you should listen the the Yaya haters around me, but he bangs them in when we need them.
I won't be surprised if he smashes one into the net on Sunday when we need it either.
OK, he's not as mobile as he was a year or so ago, but he has been a major part of our success these last few years, and I don't understand why he receives the criticism he does.
I've heard it all, he's lazy, he's got lead boots, he doesn't care, and all the rest of it, but for me, he is one of the greatest players I have seen pull on the shirt since the mid 60's, and just because he doesn't charge around the pitch like a headless chicken chasing lost causes, which some of those around me think makes a great player, doesn't detract from the simple fact his goals over the years have shaped our recent history.
I love the guy, and I will be sorry to see him leave.
He is on the wane, but he deserves our respect for his contribution over the years.
