Was Yaya's Migraine A Fake?

[BookJunior]

Most footballers are mercenaries, to a degree, and neither YaYa nor his brother have any ties to Manchester. OK, Kompany will likely see out his playing career at City with his wife being local, Zabaleta enjoys living in Manchester (Cheshire, anyway) and going to his chippy, and Silva, Aguero, & Tevez (now) seem settled. But none of them would accept even as little as 20,000 a week, let alone workmen's wages. When you're on 150,000 a week you're rich for life, and then it does become about the "challenge", or perceived personal slights, or just where you are: would you rather be in Paris (with PSG) or the Northern Quarter? The days of the Tom Finneys are long gone.

African footballers maybe more mercenary because their money supports much larger families / communities than say European Players.

Certainly the Tom Finney days are long gone - catching a bus to the ground with the punters and running his plumbing business.

On the 13th May Yaya will be 30, an age where the football brain gets better but the legs get slower and injuries happen more often and take longer to recover from. He's got one more big contract in him.

It's a judgement call and I'm not sure I have enough info to make it. The questions are: how much more has he got in him; and is he going to be worth the money we're paying him?

Not sure what is going on with Ya Ya.Obviously his agent or representative,or what ever the fcuk he is ,is trying to force the Club in to acting.

I have heard ( rumour) he is after £200,000 a week 5 year deal.i mean common the man is 30 soon ?.That is unrealistic in my opinion.Am not saying he is a good player,when he can be arsed that is,but £200 000 a week until he is 35 ?.

Fully support the Clubs stance.If he wants to spend £22,000 000 paying up his contract,good look to him at PSG,Anzi.

Personally i think he has been pretty gash this season on the whole,and i would rather a more consistent player.

yeah paris with their 75% tax rate... not sure if this applies to foreigners but still.

besides, paris is a shit hole, not all that it is cracked up to be.

[Fidel Castro]

Would just like to add that Paris is indeed shit. Proper shit.

You know mate, you got me thinking ?i am actually not 100% sure what he does ?.

I would class him as a sort of attacking midfielder who might make a couple of nice box to box runs once in a while.But for vast amounts off every game that he plays it usually passes him by,you can see him strolling around the centre more often than not.So attacking midfielder i am not so sure about.

Holding midfielder not so sure either, we have conceeded plenty of goals because off his defensive inadequacies on set pieces etc.

Has looked useful when pushed up front in games behind the striker,or as a striker.

He is a sort off generic player.

I think what i was getting at was i would much rather a consistent world class attacking midfielder player than Ya Ya who can make maybe one or two useful runs, but be pretty anonymous in the centre for the rest off the game.I dont think he is an out and out attacking midfielder He is.A better holding player as he was at Barcelona,although i think he is lazy at tracking back and defending set pieces.( my spelling is shite apologies)

Doesn't "like" Mancini? you clearly are reading a lot of what i write spazmoid. Fucking have a chill pill and get back to something constructive please, such as learning how to using the complex quoting features of this handy dandy messageboard/forum thingy.

Also, CARL stop feeding the bears please.
