Toures

[sheblue]

Anybody know when the Toures will be back?

Depends on their Africa Cup of nation run. Worst case: after the final.

i dont know anything about the tournament, and dont want to either. i am just wondering when we could get them back, when is the date for the final, hopefully they wont be anywhere near the final.

They are strong favourites to go all the way.

February 12 is the finale

thanks, feb 12 that's a long way off yet. so it could be three league matches at worst.

Plus there is travelling home and they may need a few day R&R / Training.

true, if they go all the way to the final, it could be very tight for the trip to porto.

If they go all the way to the final I'd most definitely give both Toures (esp.Yaya) a rest up until the trip to Porto is over. No need to hurry them back for Europa League clash

Aye, hopefully they will just need 24 hours to recover from the journey.

I know at the world cup most countries training sessions are just about fitness and formation so hopefully they will be in tip top shape to get 9 points off Blackburn, Bolton and Swansea on their return.

The way we're going they'll be lucky to get back in the side.

? Yaya will start the first game he is available for us, no doubt

Are you sure, we've not lost a league game since he's been away. Mancini may get a chip on his shoulder as he fucked us over for the cup games.

Yaya has been quite outspoken about how guilty he feels. Not quite the mercenary he was made out to be. Just makes him more of a legend to me.

May be true, but Mancini always puts Yaya on the team sheet when he is available. I think only Hart played more than him last season. I don't see that changing in a 1 month period

I'm joshing mate. You need to read this board more, you're a valued member.

Watching the Zambia and Libya match and the pitch is ridiculous. The water on it makes it a safety hazard, and it is pretty much unplayable.

I sincerely hope none of the Toure brothers have to play on a pitch like this. It would be an injury waiting to happen.
