What a knob. I better warn my employers not to disrespect me by forgetting my birthday, otherwise I'm off. ''Yaya Toure considering leaving Manchester City 'because the club failed to wish him happy birthday' Ivorian midfielder confirms his agent Dimitry Seluk's argument that he feels disrespected, despite Man City releasing video showing they did sing and give him a cake. Yaya Toure is considering leaving Manchester City because the club's efforts to celebrate his birthday were not up to scratch. Toure turned 31 on May 13, two days after City regained the Premier League title with victory against West Ham United. The club wrote a tweet to mark the occasion, which urged fans to wish the midfielder happy birthday. They also released a video showing club employees giving Toure a cake. But Toure's agent Dimitry Seluk says the player feels disrespected that no one personally shook his hand, and Toure himself has since confirmed "everything Dimitry said is true. He speaks for me." Speaking to the Sun, Seluk said: "Yaya is so upset he's thinking of leaving City. There are a number of things that have happened that have left Yaya feeling bitterly upset. He must concentrate on the World Cup now. But City have treated him with disrespect and have really hurt him." http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/fo...e-club-failed-to-wish-him-happy-birthday.html
He's a twat, remember he said people don't rate him as he is black. I don't seem to remember that stopping a certain Brazilian being known as the best world wide when racism was everywhere.
No one was saying that he wasn't. This episode epitomises all that is wrong with the modern day footballer. Privileged and detached from reality.
it was on sky news that he wanted a car for his bday! how much is he on?? he buy a Bentley a week and still have change! some of these guys really do live on a different planet.
Couldn't agree more, he's only doing it to either 1) Get a move and get a nice big signing on fee or 2) get a better contract out of City because he's been the linchpin of their team this season. Wrong way to go about it. Awful.
Thought it was actually quite funny that yesterday Yeovil Town posted a picture on twitter of a birthday cake saying "Happy Birthday Yaya from everyone at Huish Park" It sumed up the situation very nicely.......
Maybe he forgot to bring the cakes in and this is the club's retaliation. Always a tricky one. There's 2 sides to every story.
It was a huge cake. and everyone sang. Then a naked James Milner burst out of the cake and announced that he was Yaya's gift....
