Yaya Toure

[barca96]

He was woeful barca96, end of...

how?
what did he do wrong?

 

[silky_soccer]

Im with you, Yaya is perfect for us, mascherano isnt as good technically as him, plus, yaya hass a much needed physical prescence in our midfield, has a better ability to retain the ball, hes nearly the perfect DM for us in my opinion,

Whats that Adil?

Barca96
He was wasteful going forward, which is all he had to do as inter werent attacking.

 

[adil_909]

how was he wasteful? i remember one overhit pass to alves and a couple of long drives that were off target when nobody else was shooting. that makes yaya's performance "WOEFUL??" how about you judge everyone fairly instead about bitching about yaya every time he has a merely average game.

Silky_Soccer....Dont act childish just because people disagree with you...First and foremost we all want Barca to do well...And secondly just because you say "you like him", it doesn't absolve or justify ur stupid statement about his contribution in tonites game.....

 

[adil_909]

and if yaya was woeful, what choice words would you use to describe the performances of busquets, ibra, and alves??

 

[La Furia]

His role was simply supportive. Aside from a couple bad passes, he didn't mess up anywhere. I did miss some of the game, but that is what I saw.

A handball is a pretty major mess up.

Toure didn't have a bad game. He and Pique were the sole reason why Inter didn't trouble Valdes. They, for example, wiped the ground with Milito.
I've always thought that shooting from far is the best weapon to use against antifootball teams like Inter. I'm glad that Yaya got that and tried.

 

[silky_soccer]

did i say that They were good, if you read the Ibra thread iv said the same about him,

@Zigzag, im not being childish, i just dont see why me criticizing yaya for this results in me having a problem with him, so i proved that i didnt, that is all, IMO yaya was horrible in yours obv not, But Adil really fuckeed my off by saying that.

also im not the only one guys....

oh f-off la furia, what you want him to become superman and move his hand away from his chest in the 0.5 seconds he had?? it takes your brain 0.55 seconds to process an incoming stimulus, make a plan of action and execute it, and yaya had less time than that to react. that was NOT a handball. the worst side of barca fans is coming out after this loss, pathetic comments from someone like you

 

[Cule Angles]

Actually he was woeful, I was buoyed by his appearance in the starting lineup thinking that he'd bring the maturity and level headedness we needed. Instead he was impatient, uninventive and counter-productive to our cause tonight showing a distinct lack of intelligence in his choice of passes. Simply not good enough.

 

[Cal-FCB]

I didn't think he was that bad tbh. Going forward there were some loose passes but he snuffed out any attack from Inter and won the ball back a lot.

I was half-joking, it was poor positioning of his hand on his part and he did not have a good game by any means. Awful passing, awful positioning, just dumb play, the Busquets fans around here must be thrilled because while Busquets tried to sneak us into the next round, Yaya most likely lost what little faith Pep had in him. A lot of it is Pep's fault though, but unfair or not I bet this is the last game Yaya plays in a Barcelona jersey.

A handball is a pretty major mess up.

IF it was even a handball, it wasnt deliberate by any means.
you wouldnt expect a player to walk around with hands in the air right?

and whats this with yaya being woeful?
better to take a shot than nothing right?
and he was was good defensively.

i think you guys are setting the bar too high for yaya..

i'm waiting for your comments in other player threads about other players who were immature, not level headed, impatient, uninventive, and counter-productive. i disagree in your description, but if you accuse yaya of being all these things, then please go to the other player threads and let the rest of the players have it as well.

poor positioning of his hand...? you want his hands to be out away from his body when a shot is coming in then? very confusing. it's not his fault the ref is a clown. but i agree 100% with the rest of your comments.

I don't have unlimited time to spend on this forum, Yaya was one of the poorer performers tonight and his thread is towards the top of the forum, hence why I made the comment.
