What Does Yaya Toure Actually Do?

[Dameerto]

I keep saying he's the best player in the Premier League - not just the best midfield player.

And for those people who maintain he was quiet in both games against Barca: watch the games, next time - not just follow what the commentator is describing

He was fucling woeful against Wigan but so were most of the others.

[phips]

this one was superb.

got a gif of the Plzen goal?

[phips]

where do you get those gifs?

i might be interested in compiling a vote thread on Yaya's goals with a bunch of gifs with his spectacular goals from this season

[branny]

I was having a pint with my Raggy bro in law while watching the first half of the Chavs game and he came out with the most ridiculous bollox I've heard for a while. Toure has peaked and we should sell. He's usually quite sensible.

They seem to have a blind spot where midfield is concerned, from manager down to fans. Yeah let's sell a 20+ goal midfielder...

Some I find using Google. Some I make myself like the one below.

[phips]

Got any of his freekicks?

Not Cleverly though, is he? Or Fellaini who couldn't buy a goal for 50p.

Wouldn't swap Yaya for anyone I reckon

Was watching CBBC with my 6 year old the other day and kids were e-mailing who they thought would win the world cup. One sends in "Belgium because they have players like " Kompany, Hazard, Benteke, Lukaku and Fellaini". Its accompanied by a clip of Kompany scoring for City, Hazard scoring for Chelsea, Benteke scoring for Villa, Lukaku scoring on loan at WBA and Fellaini scoring for..........his previous club Everton.

Great punch-line!

I didn't see the Wigan game - no, not Wenger 'I didn't see it''; I actually didn't see that game - but I'm still making the point that people often say he's been quiet, just because he didn't do too many of those rampaging runs, or spent a lot of time near the opposition penalty area

[The Original Special One]

And just to add - especially for those of you who've seen Liam Brady play - he described Yaya recently as a brilliant player.
Not very good - or great , which is usually the highest form of praise he gives a player.

But brilliant

I think Messi - and possibly Ronaldo - are the only players I've ever heard him describe thus; Liam is very sparing in his compliments

Funny. Worth a punt at World Cup though, Belgium. Very good spine and goals all over the park

[phips]

thanks Jaime. those Hull and Newcastle free kicks are superb

[Tony P]

Almost three years to the day when this thread was started, we're debating which of his several world class goals is the best. Says it all.

[Tony P]

How the fvck does he resemble Vieira?

He has no stamina,no bottle,cant defend,gets beat in the air and doesn't inspire his teammates - oh yeah,Vieira mark 2......

There are a dozen prem midfielders i would take before that clown

This is my favourite.

I agree, classic.
