'I know the Liverpool supporters were a little bit sad with me after my exit, this is for them as well,' Mascherano said.
I think more then money it was Pep's decision (?) to sacrifice Yaya for Busquets. It paid off well as we see the more mature Busquets around.Also regarding the Toure vs Mascherano discussion, Toure was dumb enough to leave a team at it's peak because of money, seriously why the fuck you leave Barca for Man city???? Mascherano on the other hand told Liverpool he won't play again if they don't sell him to Barca, so no surprise if cules prefer Mascherano to Toure

Actually no one knows the REAL reason behind why Yaya left , everyone was happy having Yaya in team ... he was and is a freaking monster. He also knew that leaving a sextuple squad is lame. Most of the people believe that it was Busquets's future.Mascherano spent more than half of the season on the bench watching Busquets play, but he didn't throw a hissy fit or threaten to leave now did he? He waited and he got his turn and eventually became a regular and played in the Copa and UCL finals. I'm not hating on Toure, but if I was a player genuinely interested in winning trophies and not money I wouldn't even dream of leaving Barca fir Man c.
