if true, I'm ashamed of City (ibrahim toure)

[Hazy2]

Is this a rare time when the club comments ?

[phips]

Ashamed? Well it didn't stop him fucking off to the world cup did it? Nor put his birthday cake to world prominance?

Didn't seem to matter then. Just blame City all the time.

this.

if he really really cared he wouldn't have gone to the WC. Ivory Coast have no chance of winning it so if its between the tournament and a dying brother you really care about, you'd choose the latter.

this reeks of more agent meddling trying to get Toure to publicly sully the relationship between City and Yaya.
this time, i might work. we'd better prepare a bid for Vidal.

[Crossie]

If he'd requested compassionate leave he'd have been granted it, just like we all would at our work.

"my brothers got weeks left, I need a bit of time to see him and sort things out" Is any employer, especially one in Citys situation at the time - end of the season - going to say no?

I doubt it.

City should not be blamed and the fact he's spouting off makes me want him to fuck right off to PSG.

[carl_feedthegoat]

He is one thick cunt, cannot do an interview without burbling and rambling repeated comments and with all the cake gate saga and now this!!!!! it has been as obvious as the day is long that he wants out of City - Good, fuck off then.

He has become one of my least favorite players ever. Sell him now as if he stays and has a monk on he will play like he has done in the past , slow , half arsed (as has been mentioned) and a waste of a position.

[Hazy2]

If he had requested compassionate leave, and had it turned down we would have heard about it long before now, and defo before cakeegate !

[Dameerto]

That quote is nothing short of slander, whatever his mental state. If he's so mentally fragile why is he giving interviews? And why are his people allowing him to give interviews?

[Plain Speaking]

Yaya appears to be using the death of his brother to help him engineer a move from the club. I cannot believe the club would deny him time to be at his brother's bedside.

The whole Yaya dissatisfaction episode blew up within days of us accepting FFP penalties. I suspect Yaya thinks because we have FFP penalties and restrictions will we not be in a position to win the CL and pay him the Kings ransom he thinks he deserves.

[Hazy2]

PSG 350K a week, Messi is on 350k he wants the same.

[avoidconfusion]

Please just fuck him off now.

[PeterParker]

How the fuck a club tthat has a ban from UEFA for failing the FTP can pay that much for Luiz and Yaya?

Bent corrupt football.

I am sure if we would sell him, it will be with at least 45-50 mil.

[twosips]

I admire Ted's attempts at being level headed but I can't help agree with another poster before who said this is basically slander. You just can't go around making accusations like this regardless of what your mental state is. Especially given the debacle that was the cake thing... I really feel for the guy but City are a business with a reputation to uphold and this can't be ignored. I'm not saying sack him or owt but I expect the club will not let this pass without comment.

Stick to the racism. You were starting to really find your niche.

[everyonehatesus]

Im sorry but Yaya is coming across as a right cunt now, if hes about next season he should expect a lot of shit from the fans. The club should fine him at the top end of the limits and come out to put htis right once and for all as the papers are loving all these chances to flick shit at us.

Get PSG on the phone - £50m and he can fly straight there when he gets knocked out of the World Cup.

racist or just a sweeping statement about african players?

[DoomMerchant]

I think he needs to put in a transfer request first so that we can publicly acknowledge him as an a-grade cunt. Otherwise it's all bollox.

He wont do that because he will miss out on a large 'loyalty' bonus if he does. He needs to retract that quote though because it's potentially damaging to the club and it is something that has to be addressed - either it is retracted or he will face the consequences.

[Beefymcfc]

Not a chance that we'd turn down a request for him to stay at home, not a chance in this world. Yaya would have had the opportunity to stay at home but he obviously chose not to, just as he chose not to return straight after. Then there's the thought of why they went to the WC in the 1st place, knowing their brothers position and afterwards, why they haven't bothered returning.

If it is true and we have denied him the opportunity to stay with his brother then that would be indeed a disgrace. But then again, if it was you, would you really accept that or would you tell them to ram it? I know what I'd do.

Not sure what to think of this to be fair, only that I know (from previous) that the club would not stand in the way of this sort of thing.

[getdressedmctavish]

Just another lesson for fans that because someone is a great player it doesn't stop them being a grade A cunt, not least because they know that one searing run and goal and its all forgotten, ala Tevez.
