Yaya one of the most underrated players of our era. If he was Spanish or Brazilian undoubtedly he’d be know as one of the greatest to grace football!
i agree.
That's straight shite talk
definitely not underrated you mug
Hes was not that good
No
Yaya toure was the most compelete midfielder of all time. He could play anywhere in midfield. He moved so quick for a guy his size, he could defend he played as a CB in a ucl final. He could play as a box to box to midfield or CAM and score 20 goals in a season and win a EPL in the same season. What a player so underrated.
I watched that great man city team he was in alot. He was probably the key player in teaching me to protect the ball especially if you've got a large frame and the strength for it, and being someone that's got less than average technical ability and being too tall to slip past players easily like the low centre of gravity players can, shielding the ball when dribbling made me play much better in sunday leauge and 5 a side. The bad thing about Yaya though is despite once playing as a centre back, at man city he completely neglected any defensive responsibility he had in midfield and became a bit of a lazy player that wouldn't run back but loved to run forward, and Carragher has criticised him for it before on MNF and it must be awkward having to now work witch eachother here lol.
@@peakdennis1 can you drop some links for shielding the ball when tall? I’m 6’5 and very agile which is amazing for a guy my size. But as a result I never worked on utilizing my frame, now I understand it’s a huge advantage.
N9
@@sereroserera367 just make yourself bigger if your that big no one should be able to take the ball from you I’m only 5”11 but My dad taught me to shield the ball when I was like 5 😂
Gullit and vidals prime is a little better they beat everyone in their prime
Went from starting CB in champions league final for Barca and winning it to scoring 20 premier league goals in 1 season years later with Man City and winning Premier League. Complete mid and player; his presence on the pitch made him stand out.
Thinking of it like that he’s actually amazing
As a Man U fan this guy was amazing his tall presence must’ve been hell for the opposition
Yaya is a footballing legend. Massively underrated because he is African.
He was in the same class as Keane and Vieira in his prime.
Aditya Chirimar no, he is rated highly because he is African.
Wasn’t as good as those two but was class still
He's good but same class as Keane and viera, bro wtf u on about
@Boi that's the realest comment I've seen all year.
He’s better for me, football ability is beyond the two you’ve mentioned.
Respek on Toure
'I had Xavi and Ineista infront of me, so I defended'
What a legend Yaya👏🏻
POGBa would do a rebel to change that! noticce the difference ..
@@atallahkhalil1412 Not at all, Pogba listens to his instructions to his and his team's detriment. Pogba doesn't have good players ahead of him to create.
@@Quazzi he has Lingard -_-
@@Quazzi Pogba has Lingard James Rashford Martial which will compete for Ballon D'Or after Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi retire.. They're biggest talent in world football..
@@tropicalshop764 Dead.
Yaya laid the foundation for the Manchester city we are seeing today. To me, he is an undisputed legend. A real box-to-box midfielder.
Yahya is a French. He's spoken well enough to be understood. How many of these guys can speak a 2nd language. I'm proud of him.
Sorry not french, ivorian, thk you
@@djoanandroid His main language is French, stupid!
I speak 4 languages. Now im learning greek, you tube is you friend lol.
@@djoanandroid Triggered. Lmao, no one cares.
@Christopher Nana Kofi Guggisberg Don't get your point Mr Akan
People out here critising his English, can queen Elizabeth speak my language as a Ugandan?
Why would she ? 😂
@@54356776 so Hamzah is bilingual but the Queen is not....now understand?
@@sarangisoutrik3850
He's in England, speaking English is logical. The queen speaking the native Ugandan language is irrelevant.
@@54356776 u know him? How do u know he lives in England? And I was talking about being bilingual, not speaking Ugandan.
@@sarangisoutrik3850
The man in the video is in England.
Everyone is talking about Yaya's english, but I think is more than well enough to be understood.
Edit: I should say his accent, not his english.
Same!
Context is more important than pronunciation.
To be honest it's pretty good
His English is good. His accent is the problem.
Can’t see any comments about his English. He has an accent yes but he knows 5 languages I doubt the people making silly comments know 2 languages.
when City won their first trophy after 36 years, it was not a big deal for me because I was coming from Barcelona.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Haha this man is too honest, I love how they try to force him to say it was extraordinary but for him it wasn't 😂
legendary big yaya
Ofcourse it wasn't a big deal for him. It was big for the club and the fans.
@@frankkiboye9875 It's not "forcing" anything, it was a big deal for City though
Yaya Toure was one of the best central midfielders around, as a Utd fan it was frustrating seeing such a good player like him play for city but damn don’t forget what this player could do, he’s on a gerrard scholes lampard level.
Schmidt Thoughts in his peak most definitely, it’s a shame he transferred to City at the age of 27 instead of 22-23 his legacy would’ve been far more appreciated.
100% he’s easily on their level. Probably more skilled also. And none of them could match him when he’s driving with the ball thru midfield. Yaya Toure and Cesc Fabregas are criminally underrated when it comes to prem midfielders
Every Monday he had everything! Great passing, great shooting with both feet, pace (in his prime) and strength. He’s the most complete midfielder in the premier era.
Tbh back then everyone would call him a beast but when he wasn't playing under pep that's when people started saying he isn't good enough or not a great player which is bull
Every Monday Cesc as an Arsenal was my favourite player ever. He started his career at such lighting pace and dwindled toward the end and that’s why isn’t held in the regards that he should be.
Most underrated player ever !! He is one of the best midfielder of the history.
^ I agree
Sir. Boaz Mutatay nah
Nahhhh💀
POV: You're trying to find a comment that is criticising his english
Lmao so true
If you're talking about his English, I'd love to know how many languages you speak.....I thought so. And I’m a United supporter! I just hate the ignorance.
+Karl Rossman
stop boasting yourself
+Karl Rossman
stop boasting yourself
can we just talk about football ?
I speak 4, and English on a high academic level, but I have a hard time understanding him, especially the triangle part
Karl Rossman no offense mate but all these guys Mourinho, Christiano and Yaya speak at least 3 international languages, each.
Yaya had to learn Spanish, English and obviously is a French speaker. Apart from that he speaks his mother tongue (pardon me for forgetting the name of the language)....
How many do you speak?
Toure in his prime was an ABSOLUTE BEAST! And also... a must have Fantasy Premier League player (scores more goals than most strikers!).
Why he left Barça? Pep benched him for Sergio Busquets. No other reason. Having said this, his game shined more and was outstanding at Man City.
I'm a Chelsea fan but yaya was my favorite midfielder back then...I watched Mancity just to see yaya play
Big facts on that bro. We're basically the same.
Absolutely agree. When he was just outside the box you really didn't know if he was going to shoot, dribble, or pass because he could do all three so effectively
I fell in love with Manchester city football club because of this legend!!! No doubt that he's one of the greatest footballer I have ever watch in African football history. Salute!! ❤️
Glory hunter much
Give me a flashback Toure in Fifa please to play next to pogba
great idea!
They cant do that because he currently isn't in ultimate team
With Malgani on the wing
@Supreet Singh its fifa, it dont matter what they do the computer decides what happens anyway.
High Thoughts who is that?
8:23 “ for me it was normal”😭
Still is
That guy deserves a birthday cake
He is a legend
Nothing less than a legend
He was a beast at his prime
He had speed and destructive shots and he was a good passer and also playmaker
Yaya toure was incredible in Barca . Brought everything we needed in the midfield . Did not WANT him to go but pep wanted him to go
As a midfielder,he scored nearly 20 goals a season....
That speaks.
Massive respect for Yaya Toure.
One of the greatest box-to-box midfielders of all time, and such a humble, down-to-earth human being off the pitch too. Legend.
He was one of the best midfielder in the EPL and Spain watching his defending skills was just pleasant. RESPECT
Without a doubt Barcelona 09 was the best football team in history
I Concord
99 utd
Barcelona 2011 was better imo
@@Unknown-de3uw I suggest you watch that 99 final, you'll be surprised how low the quality of play was, compared to what we see now from Man City and Liverpool, Barcelona from 09 to 11 was some of the best football you'll see for the next 20-30 years.
Nope Chelsea was better the referee rewarded them the final.Arigo Sakis Milan is the best team ever.
I like Yaya. I like his plenty experience and a lot of tactics. Most of all, I like his comic style. Funny. I hope to see him more on the show.
k
One of the best midfielders I’ve seen in the Premier League could play in any position.🐐
I love yaya in this new job. He will be an excellent analyst
Gotta work on his English but I agree
still not better than Michael Owen.
@@Trigga_47 may be it is your opinions.
He's got the knowledge and he's very honest, but he needs to improve his English syntax
Yeah he needs to work on his English. It'll come with time as he practises
Kolo toure was Celtics and even the best defender in Scottish football history and he had great leadership skills when Celtic was defending in the 2016/2017 invincibles season this was Celtics last world class player he even showed great defending skills and leadership against Manchester city in the 2016/2017 champions league group stages wich lead to a 3-3 draw we did outplay city and out managed pep gardiola even though we got 1 point it felt like a win for us Celtic fans plus dembele and Griffith's was on fire in that match so was Sinclair and forest and Kieran Tierney they kept fighting on till the 90th minute this was Celtics best european game since Martin o Neils celtic and the last best european game for us hopefully we beat Valencia in the knock stages and hopefully we progress to the Europa league quarter final which is 50/50 Celtic needs to give us an entertaining match in the Valencia game so we don't suffer like at the Salzburg game back in October and November but Rosenberg bet Leipzig wich kept us in the Europa league by just we nearly got knocked out of the Europa league because of the lack of confidence wich led to cheap and costly mistakes
As a Man Utd fan, Yaya toure was one of my favorite midfielders of all time
This guy is a human freight train and for a big guy can run pass defenders like it was nothing. We had hoped Pogba will develop into a player like him but never happened
Pogba is not man United problem
@@charlesomokaro7910 no one said he was man utd problem. Read my comment good sir
Pogba is not yaya…two different styles
@@paulanders4339 They play in the same position and do the same thing even tho Yaya is more defensive. They both play in a position that is both attacking and defensive hence why people compare them all the time
@@DigitalJuggernaut Pogba played a 10 at juve. With Vidal and pirlo behind him. Yaya played behind xavi and iniesta. Totally different
I love how Toure told that guy-not Carragher-that he’d had a career before coming to England.
Yaya will take the ball from the half way line , solo run and score, that’s very disrespectful.
Yaya was best on his own but he was underrated. LEGEND
Pep didn’t like Yaya and Yaya has never said bad stff about him. Respect
jajaja.... wtf!
Yaya the best wsh he was white he cld @ least scoop epl player of the year
@@humblejunta5131 ?
it was beacuse of yaya's agent. pep didnt have problems with yaya
Possibly the best all round player at city the touch, skill, passing, running with the ball, his power and strength was unreal. Two great and ultra quick feet his free kicks and penalties were unstoppable! So many massively important goals in big games what a player massively underrated Thanks for the memories Yaya
van Gaal as the next guest
Lokesh Jyotula Lol he will be so entertaining. He’ll just talk nonsense.
@@jdogg5771 What a load of horseshit. Van Gaal is a great tactician and him talking about football is always a delight.
ThisIsGrayFox van gaal is a boss
He is in the Gambia..
Van persie should do arsenal v man u
Mnf better remember to wish him a happy bday if they wanna keep him happy 😂😂😂
Jordan Obrien lolll
Jordan Obrien that was FAKE NEWS. Yaya never asked the club to wish him.
sid mallya no it was true. Why would something so stupid be a rumour in the first place. It must have been true
Jordan Obrien trusssss
😂😂😂
Pep during his time with Barcelona is absolutely amazing.
We can't deny that. But, this time with Man City is very different.
In my life he's the best midfielder I have ever seen
Pure class
10:23. “I forget his name”
“The main message is to have a good position…to have good fluidity, and after this fluidity, it’s like a machine, something systematic. When you have the ball you know what to do and your friend, all your teammates around you, know what you have to do and know what is going to be your move, even without looking… this is something we’ve been working in training, Barcelona and the chance to work that in Manchester City…sometimes it depends, you know?” Yaya Toure, Total Genius
Great accent. Authenticity. This man is African
Kante would thrive under pep. Sarri is destroying him. Its like playing messi at right back
Abdur rahman no way, Janet is getting better and better, just because he isn't getting as many interceptions as he did previously you can see how he has got so much better offensively but defensively aswell, he's better positioned and knows exactly when to press. I agree with you that he would be better as the out and out cdm but he's better than he was last year for sure
agreed
Just the way pep destroyed yaya
Kante in Fernandinho position would be KILLER
@@dacooooo well if he ever gonna go he should go to city
9:07 Yaya basically called Man City a small club on national television.
Love him even more now 😂
hahahahaha
He said normal club at that time he was signed and it's true
Normal club AT THAT TIME. But players like Yaya makes club bigger. City is a big team now.
Respect the only legend we have yaya toure
Yaya a living Legend ..Respect !!
Would love it if fifa brought back this classic teams like ...the invincibles,this barca team
Great yaya. Most important man in mancini team along with silva and aguero
good day what's the name off the app dey use
Anyone any idea what Carragher says at 9:15 ? And I thought yaya would be more difficult to understand.
birthday cake helped though
Dude... I’m still trying to understand wtf he said
david johnson that’s what he said?
Good. You didn't reveal Pep's tactics
The disrespect on Yaya is insane
If he was French Spanish or Brazilian he would be seen as a legend
Yaya s the best midfielder ever, the first central midfielder to score 20 goals n a season
Guys at the start when he's talking about the midfield play and wingbacks tucking in, he's ultimately talking about a numeric overload. That's basically when you have a extra player in a certain part of the field.
Ture was really amazing everywhere he goes 👌🖐️
Humble guy. Great professional. & His wrist be dripping.
One of the top players in last decade
I'm a mancunian Man City fan and IMO Yaya was one of the world's best players in 2012 to 2017 at Manchester City? He was unstoppable on his day!
Yahya Toure is the midfielder I admire the most
I didn’t even realise people were having a problem with his accent until i read the comments . Im from india and i was raised in the middle east , and here is a man of African descent, whom i have no issue with understanding.
he saw that busquets really integrated well with iniesta and xavi in the midfield . no matter how good you are..sometimes you should know if there is a player that fits the team's playing style better than you. busquets shone in 2009 and toure smartly left in 2010.
I always thought he was the best midfielder in the world when watching city.... an absolute driving force, haven't seen anything like it since
I love him! Guy is so honest
Yaya deep runs for Man city was awesome to watch.
Something you didn't notice is that he placed Henry at the sideline and not Messi. It is a paralyze system. You make opponents think you are not in a position to make a threat. You play more on the right side since most players are right legged. The body system get used to that side and when things turn around its a walk in the park. That was how dangerous Henry was used that time. Even to date they play more of right side. But when ball goes to Alba count it a goal or a threat. Simple logic. The mind got used to Messi on the right being the threat side. One becomes heavier to make a turn, a tackle. Why Messi playing on the right? Simple, to secure him from injuries. A right footed person tackle can hurt more with the right foot. Just like when he kicks the ball. During those days when Messi played on the LW he used to suffer more injuries. Long term injuries.
Thanks
@@Aisatsana1971 you are welcomed. For what though?
@@alingoxgaming387 I learned something from your explanation so I am thanking you
He was a real beast at City! His runs were incredible
He’s got the funniest smile when he laughs 😂
Yaya toure one among the players that I admired most, he was very talented but racism was an obstacle for him to be well recognized globally,
Yaya in pelleghrini era was beast
Playing around with fernadhino really support him, so sad this legacy looks like going to change now, only fernadhino and aguero is stay now, if they leave next season then it's no one left
Good for the team?! Man, for me, Yaya was one of my favorites to watch on the field back then... he had the presence and was commanding for holding it down!
In barca, i trusted yaya. If he was in the line up. I know there would strength and consistency
Should have been Footballer of the Year in 2014
Empowering teammate in any team. Priceless...
Yaya’s first language is not French. It is Senoufo (from North Ivory Coast). Then he learned French. Then he learned English. Maybe some Spanish and Turkish. Calm down, people.
In terms of quality, Yaya Toure in his prime shadows every midfielder to ever play in PL. Yaya from 10-14 was simply unplayable. Guy had everything pace, power, control, technique, flair, awareness, work rate etc you name it. Most complete midfielder PL has seen tbh.
But in terms of PL LEGACY(most important criteria) and consistency in their older days(33+) Lampard, Viera, Scholes are better. These players have done it for a longer time and played more important role in their teams
Yaya's legacy is one of the most unique but still below of the aforementioned names.
@Jay Are you blind? I said in his prime which was 3-4yrs in PL he was the most complete midfielder itw. But in terms of PL LEGACY there are many better.
It is awkward for him to analyze pep
Yaya is talking about how Barca use the ball to manipulate opposition defenders.
I remember Xavi talking about ball movement in an interview. He said that you can pass the ball to move the ball, but also pass the ball to move the players. If you pass the ball in front of your team mate, they should move forward to get it and it brings your team up the pitch.
But sometimes against organised defenses, Barca just pass the ball to see how a defender reacts. Are they going to step up to pressure the ball receiver? If so, they are leaving a whole in their defense. Is the whole defense going to shift? If one player doesn’t, then they leave a gap that can be exploited.
What he did for City i will never forget. Fa cup goal in the semi vs united to take us to the final against stoke for him to score the winner there too . That was the clubs turning point
One of the smartest players I ever saw
Seriously. If Xavi and Iniesta are legends, then what makes Yaya Toure? Not saying the spanish weren't great, but some players control the ball whereas others control the space, and personally never seen someone as good at controlling the space as Yaya Toure. Put simply, he dominates the midfield like no one!
Well said. At barca he was a cork around the 18 and at city be played that AND offensive. Box to box . Literally a steam engine.
Toure is legend... But xavi and iniesta were something else...a gift from footballing god
I don't agree with you, Yaya always lost the battle in controlling midfield when man city played against Barca and even against other teams too, but when xavi and iniesta play together they always dominate midfield!!!
Yaya was amazing .
But pace control there is zidan then xavi and i see messi last three years is making everything and anything , messi last 3 years did evey little thing and every big thing in the book to be stolen by arrogant and hatered media from real madrid or man united control but i know itis another topic .
Messi or /and zidan then xavi then u can put yaya together with scholes and one of my favourites is redundo in real madrid , 1/0 for real he put his tempo and pace to any game he was in .
Did you just compare Toure to Xavi and Iniesta?... As much as I like him, he got replaced by a 20 year old Busquets.
Respect to yaya tori from Algeria yaya hes a big player
🎶 Yaya Yaya Yaya Yaya Yaya Yaya Yaya Toure 🎵 Kolo Kolo Kolo Kolo Kolo Kolo Kolo Toure 🎶 🎵 🎶
Can you do what happend to Alexis Sanchez
As someone who has struggled to learn any Spanish and Romanian while working overseas people should shut TF up.
His vocabulary is pretty good and you can understand what he is saying. The accent is strong but he knows what he is saying and he speaks quickly.
Especially funny coming from English speakers who are notoriously poor linguists.
Much respect to him as a player despite the birthday cake hissy fit.
I see a lot of comments about yaya’s accent. It is not his accent, he just needs to get his point across
If you know, you know
imagine they kept boateng and actually played kompany and boateng as centre halfs would have still been that pairing rsther than playing them as defensive mids
Henry explains it a lot better...
His voice is amazing!
At the time watching Barcelona felt like Yaya could unleash even more potential giving him free positioning, but he fitted so well...
Im glad he joined finally the Premier League cause his psysicallity and technique showed up so much more than he would in Spain. And he is definitely guilty on the transition proyect-trophies almost boulding a brand on his shoulders.
What does Carra say at 9:15?
Pep guardiola the best manager in the world
i dont bivillit
Untill he can match Wengers 49 INVINCIBLES he is not the best.
@John Smith ooh johnny johnny... so stupid....
Darren lmao.
@John Smith wtf are you talking about?
One of my best players ever
This guy was a very good player, and playing in that fantastic Barcelona team is something pretty much anyone would dream about
I love that he mentions jovetic
Dude is quite shy.
Looks like he would be funny in French though. 🤣🤣
he also has an odd accent in french too but that guy is the bomb
Many of man city s goals come from a pass from the wingers - sane/sterling/mahrez to the striker/winger of opposite side to tap it in to an empty net. It's fantastic to see each goal is a carbon copy.
You mean ~ Yayaa! Toureeeea!?!!!
fairplay he could’ve stayed at barca and been the second choice to busquets or iniesta but he felt he could offer more going forward to a team so he went to city to play a more advanced role and obviously didn’t win a champions league but he dominated the premier league for a few years.
Yaya just as good and also a legend
Absolute complete midfielder
