***Transfer Rumours Thread*** [ALL RUMOUR TOPICS MERGED]

My wife is a Barca fan, so I've seen him a lot, and IMHO he's very good. Guardiola favoured the home grown Busquets, but I think Toure is better. He's versatile and was excellent when covering CB, but is also good going forward. I suspect people don't want him coz they don't like his brother. He's a definite improvement on De Jong.

i'm disappointed we're this far into a player thread and there's no youtube vid yet ... this place has changed ...

on topic: I really like yaya toure, and for people thinking he is overrated, etc ... He's a strong, physical, mobile midfielder. That can't be taught. (ps I also don't think he is overrated)

Just heard this on the radio and I'm stuck in traffic so can't find out, anyone know?

"If everything goes well, Yaya will go to England," Dimitri Seluk told Ona FM.

"But we can't talk about definite clubs. We already have a closed deal, and all will be resolved before the World Cup."

Radio 1 confirm he HAS signed for a prem club but his agent is keeping it under wraps?

What's the point sending out a statement that he's signed for 'an English club' and not naming the club?

I wanna know how many la liga games the people who reckon yaya is over-rated actually watch - he's a fucking good solid defensive midfielder who can also play the box to box role perfectly well - an excellent foil for Barry imo
Silva on the other hand flatters to decieve quite often and I don't think he'll make it in the prem - I'd prefer Joe Cole
Also him fucking off in 3 years, he'll be 30 then, so thats about right !

Just because we have players good players in certain positions doesn't mean they are good enough or quite the style of player the manager wants for his preferred system (s). If he is an improvement on what we have ( which he almost certainly is) then we should sign him. We might need players in other positions more than this one, but with our money, that shouldn't stop us signing better players.

[Beefymcfc]

Does anybody remember what he, or his agent, said about us last time we were linked with him? Did he say that he fancied a move to City back then?
