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.
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.
