Madmax 9,219 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 One player will not change the outlook of the league. He is a fantastic player but the packages that sell the league do not feature Yaya in it... As a matter of fact if you will allow me to get on my soapbox for a minute, no black players are highly advertised in this league. Yaya is mentioned in circles but not nearly as highly as Aguero or Silva. Hell even Steven Gerrard got more consideration for player of the year! hahahaDrogba was always spoken of as being the best in the world on his day, and not just by Chelsea fans. Ferdinand and Evra are to this day described as some sort of defensive lynchpins when in reality their performances have nosedived since a couple of years ago. Aguero IS the best striker in the league along with Suarez. Silva IS the best playmaker in the league. The Gerrard love-in is down to the number of scouse media pundits and their ability to consequently affect public opinion.If there's one thing the PL is good at, it is self praise. There's no racist undertone there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnythefirst 1,076 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Kompany was player of the year two years ago, was he not? He's quite black, as a matter of fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,887 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I hope he goes.FOr me after Cristiano the best player in the world. It's unbelievable how a CM is the third best scorer of Premier League with 20 goals,Lampard has been scoring 10 plus goals a season for the last 10 seasons or whatever now one man comes and gets near enough to 20 he's some sort of god and second best player in the world?

Matterz 67 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 As much as I love Matic, he ain't scoring 15+ goals a season.We don't need a midfielder that will score us 15 goals a season, we need a striker that will! Our midfield already contributes plenty of goals... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iseah100 5,612 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Apparently, a future role at City after he retires would keep him there. He wants similar treatment Zidane was given at Madrid. He also believes he should have won Player of the Year and his agent says next year maybe he'll just take a chunk out of Terry's arm, that way he'll win the PFA Player of the Year the following season. http://www.espnfc.com/news/story/_/id/1829499/agent-yaya-toure-wants-manchester-city-coaching-role?cc=5901http://www.squawka.com/news/yaya-toures-agent-claims-he-would-be-a-god-at-liverpool/112414This dude is a bitch.

petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I'm more than sure this is a come and get me plea to PSG. They are the only club in this world that would pay big money for his transfer and also for his contract.The only thing this lazy and greedy cunt wants is money and more money. He is already on a €13.5m per annum contract. 31 and approaching the last years of his career. Of course he wants another four or five-year deal worth €60-70m so that he can live on a high note in his last footballing years. I would not be surprised if Paris will offer something like €20m for his transfer and a five-year deal worth €16m per annum. They are that stupid!Haha!

And besides you're missing the point, I'm not talking about widespread appeal I'm talking about selling the game abroad and in the packages you rarely if ever see the footballer who many regard as one of the best in the world.You ask Ferdinand if there is any sort of racist undertone in the league.

There is no racist undertone. It comes down to marketability and Toure really isn't all that marketable. Drogba on the other hand was and he was included in NBC's Premier League marketing as well as featuring in magazines like Time.Not sure what the comment about Ferdinand is all about but I think it's bull shit if it's alluding to the JT case which was no more than an isolated incident.
