[@RoomAtTheTopStudio]

Yaya Toure is the best midfielder that Man City has ever had, period. I waited 35 years to see City win another trophy. I remember the pain and the ridicule I got for being a City fan throughout those years. Yaya was instrumental in putting that wait to rest once and for all, first with the goals in the FA Cup semi-final and final in 2011 and then with his performances and goals in 2012 and 2014 winning us the Premier League. If you watch videos of all the games where Yaya played for City I doubt that you can find 20 times that Yaya was dispossessed by the opposition. Hell with it I doubt you can find anything near double figures. I used to find it amusing to watch teams standoff from even challenging him for the ball when the ball was passed to him from our defense. They would wait for him to pass the ball and then press because it was a waste of time pressing him. If we needed a goal he would switch from playing no 6 to no 10 go forward and score or create a goal. Even though he won't be acknowledged by most City fans, to me he will always be the foundation on which the success of Manchester City has been built on.

[@reflexcoil9808]

I'm a Liverpool fan but Yaya Toure was world class at city and one of the very reason City are where they are now. His work ethic combined with his explosive energy and strength is unlike anything we've seen from any midfielder in premier league history. He single handedly dictate game tempo from midfield making David Silva job unrealistically easy, players terrified of press him because is just a waste of time. To this day it baffles me how Pep managed to discarded him out of City in such a sad way.

[@ladislausmsongole8479]

It is not clear why Pep hated Yaya You're even the author of this struggles to explain it. From Yaya Toure interviews it looks like the skin of Yaya was a problem. Considering what happened to Samuel Etoo another world class player ill-treated by Pep. As for Zlatan I may well think it was personal beef rather than skin colour. While I highly respect Pep, the way he is struggling to explain why he wasn't at good terms with Yaya, points to Yaya's skin and nothing else because Pep can't acknowledge it in public

[@papjin6069]

Africa player

[@rickenfatania]

He also discarded him at Barca. In hindsight keeping Eto'o, Toure and even Ibrahimovic in the team were the best options. Iniesta on the left, Xavi and Toure as the AMs, Messi false 9 and Eto'o/ Ibrahimovic through the centre would have been the end of football. He still could have signed Villa and had him on rotation as well as Pedro.

[@toji2254]

The fact that Yaya doesn't have a statue along Kompany, Silva and soon with Aguero is criminal

[@samuelkamochu6808]

Who also thinks that if Pep guardiola had managed Chelsea during Didier Drogba's prime he would have frustrated him to the point of the Ivorian leaving for lack of play time?

[@Fyneskills]

Thank God Pep never managed Drogba

[@ThatGuy-tx4vm]

No way. Drogba was a true professional of the highest order. Yaya was in barcelona 4th choice behind iniesta xavi busquets which makes sense. He decided to leave because he wanted to play and he wouldn't play ahead of them. At city he was getting old, was overweight and guardiola still prefered to play with a defensive holding midfielder(fernandinho) and two technical ones. Toure was never a pep kind of player because he was too offensive to play the busquets role and guardiola does not use box to box players a lot. Guardiola told him he wouldn't play much at city and toure got angry and disrespectful, that's why pep then completely erased him from his plans. Drogba i think had no such problems, he would have been like david villa. As for the theory that pep is racist... That is just yaya being an idiot and trying to make pep seem evil. Pep did the same thing to ibrahimovic and joe hart, he also nearly did it to aguero as well.

[@RoomAtTheTopStudio]

@@ThatGuy-tx4vm I think I can agree with you with regards to Pep and Drogba. I do think that they would at times disagree, but it would be only for a short while as most players and managers do. I disagree with your conclusion about Yaya's time at Barcelona. Far from just playing holding midfielder, Yaya played central defense for Barca as his main position towards the end. Pep didn't use Yaya in an attacking role at all. This is why City were ridiculed for paying so much for a holding midfield player, as that was what he was known for. Mancini switched him into the box to box role. That was a surprise to the English football community and media at the time. I also agree with you regarding Yaya calling Pep racist. Sterling has been the first name on the team sheet for the past 5 years. Mendy has been retained after 4 years of injury and loss of form. Jesus may not be the most prolific striker but Pep holds him in high regard for his work rate and because he follows Pep's instructions to the tee. I'm a big Yaya fan but that accusation is bullshit so I can't back it.

[@Fyneskills]

@@ThatGuy-tx4vm Pep would have benched Drogba. Look at what Pep did to Eto'o and that was Barcelona's top scorer at the time. Pep does not like African players. Seydou Keita at Barcelona also saw his minutes dramatically drop with Pep. In Man City, Kelechi stopped getting opportunities with Pep even though he had the best goals per minute ratio of any striker on the Man City squad. Pep is consistent in limiting opportunities to African players with the exception being Riyad Mahrez of Algeria. You bring up Zlatan, but Zlatan was poor at Barcelona and did not fit Blaugrana. That move to bring Zlatan to replace Eto'o cost Barcelona a Champions League. This is a prime example of why racism is not good.

[@ThatGuy-tx4vm]

@@Fyneskills seydou keita was bought by pep and left with pep... Know your facts first. And stop being delusional. Do you think keita should have played ahead of busquets? Mahrez for some weird reason now plays every single game. Could it be perhaps that pep wanted something specific from him that he wasn't giving in the past but is giving now? Or do we take the dumb and simplistic view that every time an african doesn't play it must be racism? I don't really know what pep didn't like about eto'o but toure he was right. For the team barca was and the players they had, xavi, iniesta, busquets was the most balanced midfield, and it was demonstrated even more when barca 2010-11 was stronger tactically than 2008-09 or 2009-10. Guardiola removed ihehanacho from city because maybe he too didn't do some things he asked of him. Like joe hart couldn't play from the back. And ibra started perfectly at barcelona. Most of his goals were scored in the first half of the season till pep put messi as striker and left ibra in a new position. Leave your bias at the door when arguing. And yes you're probably right. Drogba might've been benched because of his playstyle.

[@webmeister5000]

From an Arsenal fan... Yaya Toure was an absolute force of nature as a player , and had been since his Barcelona days, and he alongside Sergio Aguero, David Silva and Vincent Kompany were the vital cogs, or rather, main catalysts of City's rise from mediocrity to elite status in not only England but European football, and his place as a City legend is all but assured and nobody will ever take that from him. But make no mistake about it- Pep Guardiola is the greatest club manager in football today, and it was for that very reason that City brought him in so that the football club could take that next step and not only cement their status as one of England's premier clubs, but also now permanently dine in the same table as the the European elite, and eight years on, Pep has done exactly what he was brought in to do- Dominate English football and deliver the club's first ever European Cup- and he did that in style, winning the fabled Treble, becoming the only manager to accomplish that fit for the second time in their career and with more than one club. Look, Pep's relentless pursuit of success and perfection makes him lose his soul a bit but that is a necessary evil to have as manager if you want to be the greatest ever. It's unfortunate that he and Toure didn't see eye to eye but two things are for sure: 1. Pep is not a racist! We have seen him successfully work with various black players eg. Eric Abidal, Seydou Keita, Kingsley Coman, David Alaba, Raheem Sterling, Leroy Sane, Kyle Walker etc and tif he was racist he would not have worked with them. People seem not to understand how deep racism is- A racist cannot be in the same presence as a person of the race he or she hates and you do not notice the disdain...not to forget that the above mentioned players have nothing bad to say about Pep. 2. Yaya Toure will no doubt go down as a Barca and City great, but he cannot be fully absolved from blame in this long standing frosty relationship...Pep had his reasons for not preferring him, and using his own words, he was not obedient enough as Pep would have loved and Pep duly eliminated him from his plane, and he was and has been proven right in both clubs as he did win a lot and has won a lot without the Ivorian. End of Take...

If Yaya could play well with his weight why stick to your stubborn and rigid ways Pep? Yaya was a big, and tall man and it's too hard for him to be 65 or 64 kg. Imagine telling that to Lukaku. Now Sterling, Mahrez and smaller guys can manage that but not such massive guys like Toure. Pep chose to ignore Toure's history and reputation at City and used this weight excuse to kick him out because of a personal grudge. We know big and heavy people can be fit. Adriano, Ronaldo were big, heavy and also fit. Ronaldo had frightening pace and dribbling skills. Pep is a genius, a racist and an egomaniac. Zlatan, Eto, Bony and Toure were sacrificed because of him.

And I do think that maybe in order to come across with his super strict style, he does better with people who "speak the language" also metaphorically.

[@bernardwongibe5118]

coming from an amateur footballer, sometimes as a manager, you must modify your plan to fit some players. Look at the greats like Ronaldhino, R9, even Neymar. Managing some of these huge talents (while taking into account their background) is hard. Because of their talent, you can't coach them like normal players. I think Guardiola should clearly say he doesn't want certain players, not make it a weight issue or this or that. How can someone not at your ideal weight be one of the best midfielders in the world? then you can clearly forgo the weight, you should be able to be flexible sometimes.

There clearly seems to be a problem here.. why is it that Pep cannot get on with very good African football players ? He had the same problem with Samuel eto who was at the time undoubtedly one of the best strikers in the world. Pep need’s to take a good look in the mirror and ask himself, why is he allowing his hatred for people of colour to cloud his thoughts. Talk about sub - intelligence, he needs to take a leaf out of the better Manager in my opinion, Jurgen Klopp, who naturally embraces all players in his squad.

[@cheese186]

Eto'o already had problems with Rijkaard, the previous coach. He literally even said that he was a bad person. So let's not pretend he was some sort of saint that never had any issue before. Also Pep loved Keita, who was also african, or Abidal, who was french but with african roots. And he has used plenty of people of colour during his career, so that's nonsense. It just happened that Yaya didn't accept that Busquets was better than him in the defensive midfielder position, and Xavi and Iniesta were untouchable as central midfielders, so he went to bench. And Klopp hasn't had to deal with a big superstar player with that kind of ego like Etoo, Zlatan or Toure, so you can't really compare them. But he wouldn't have allowed Yaya to be lazy and overweight, that's for sure.

Coach's job are more at risk than the players. so why would any coach let players have their ways and then he gets fired? Mourinho and so many successful coach are most the same way.

Would love to have seen Yaya drop the weight, for many reasons. First, interesting experiment, which I suspect would have made a substantial difference to parts of his play... Second, take away Pep's excuse for not playing him. Besides that, I think the real reason comes down to the team dynamic. An effective team needs to be built around one dominant personality, and Pep needed it to be him for his style to work; Yaya was too strong a personality, with a style that would probably not have fit into Pep's strategic approach, and may have ended up creating dissent (unintentionally/inadvertently), which would have killed the team dynamic.

Its really unfair how he ruined Yaya's career. I also blame the fan base because they had the power to force the coach to give him play time but did nothing about it. Maybe the Man city's champions league curse comes from these kind of things. How can weight really be a factor if you are fast..creative and scoring goals.??
