So fucking good for us for a few seasons. Too bad his agent's a dick and that his legs went. I don't think I've ever seen a more complete midfielder in England than prime Yaya (KdB may yet reach that high). My favourite memories was Mancini chucking in another defensive midfielder when we were chasing a goal to release the Yaya.

When there were big games, he knew how to step up. I am certain vs QPR it would had been much easier if he didn't leave the pitch injured.
Love him to bits, even if he frustrated the hell out of me with his attitude. I will never forget him.

This is how legends look.

Take a bow, Yaya monster.

Just been watching videos of city fans singing the Yaya / Kolo song in Madrid , Barca , Munich , Naples , Glasgow etc etc . Incredible memories and atmosphere that almost brings you to tears with happiness . Tried downloading a couple onto here but I cant get it to work sorry.
Not really here

The thing about Yaya was, he could shuffle about for ages seemingly doing nothing, then a look would come over him as if he said to himself 'Right, I'm going to score now, and he did.

Watching it live, I never had any doubts he wouldn't score after his long run in the clip above.

One of our greatest ever players. And one of the PL’s greatest players.

On his day and more often than not in the big games, simply unplayable. Thank you Yaya and wishing him all the best where ever he ends up

Class player and turned it on when he choose. Not sad to see him go now as its best all round but we got the very best years of him. Such a shame about his tit of an agent.
I haven't a fecking clue what I'm doing! Gillie come back man I want my sig back. As the Photobucket thingy gone?

The goal posted by PP is one of the best goals scored at Wembley. Will never forget the goal v the SCUM in the FA Cup semi.
Moments like that are priceless. Yaya Thank you. X

One of my all time fav players. Could really do it all for a few years there. Skill, power, pace, vision and winners mentality. So versatile and such a legend. Thanks for everything big man!

Pep says the Brighton Game is all about YaYa . I hope the place is packed out full to the rafters and he gets the same send off as Zabba He deserves it . Big cake in the center circle and Kolo jumps out to the YaYa Kolo chant :lol:

With Silva in Spain hopefully Yaya replaces him. Cant see him taking Fernandinho’s spot for 90 minutes. This way we still have a chance to throttle Brighton

Wants another two years in the prem. Not sure if he's got it in the tank to be honest.

Bit like hamann and vieras last days with us. Hope he doesn't ruin his legacy.

He's mad! Not only because he's not got it anymore, but he could go play somewhere nicer than any shit hole in England.
