Yaya Toure Absent From Champions League Squad - Pep Guardiola Explains ! by FTScores: 7:51pm On Aug 15, 2016
Manchester City Coach, Pep Guardiola insists Yaya Toure was not included Manchester City's Champions League squad which faces Steaua Bucharest tomorrow (August16, 2016) because he is better-off training at the Etihad Campus.

Yes, you heard it right...solely for that reason! Yaya was also absent in the 18-man match-day squad for City's unimpressive opening win over Sunderland on Saturday.

City boss, Guardiola who spoke at a press conference in Romania ahead of the match said: "He is much, much better in the last few days."

"But I wasn't sure he was going to play so I prefer to leave him there, training well in Manchester and looking forward to the next game."

"We travelled with young guys (Angus Gunn, Tosin Adarabioyo and Angel Tasende) who may stay out of the selection, and I prefer that to be the young guys than Yaya Toure."

"I respect a lot his career and his qualities but, in the first days, especially against Sunderland, we were looking for a more intensive game, that is the only reason he didn't play."


It appears Pep is systematically freezing Yaya Toure out of the club. The big Ivorian may soon be considering playing elsewhere in England.
