Yaya Toure picks his top teammates of years gone by

Manchester City strolled to a 3-0 victory over Wolves on Monday night. An early red card for Boly saw the Wolverhampton side reduced to 10 men for 71 minutes. They put in a valiant defensive effort, conceding fewer than most other sides would at those odds. Speaking to BBC Sport after the game Pep Guardiola said: "They defend deep with 10 men so it is not easy even with one more player." Still, it wasn't a difficult victory for Pep's team. As part of Sky Sports' broadcast of the match, Yaya Toure provided punditry. At full-time he was given the pick of his former teammates to chose a best XI. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUTMYmLKN1E Yaya picked:
  • Ederson
  • Carlos Puyol
  • Rafael Marquez
  • Vincent Kompany
  • Andres Iniesta
  • Thierry Henry
  • Lionel Messi
  • Sergio Aguero
  • Leroy Sane
  • Didier Drogba
  • Samuel Eto'o
Yes - five strikers, in a 3-1-4-2. Still, no room for Kevin de Bruyne.
