he is from and lives in balitmore so i told him he needs to worry about his own backyard... thanks.
my position is clear, and i am of african descent and not african proper so pep would probably like me.
but is much bigger than me.
you keep making this only about yaya, let us discuss the five other african players mistreated by pep.
let us wait for one of them to come out and defend him.
so far the only one to defend him is kevin de bruyne from the democratic republic of congo

Yaya Toure wrong to say Pep Guardiola has 'problems with Africans' - De Bruyne
Kevin De Bruyne has dismissed accusations from former Manchester City teammate Yaya Toure that Pep Guardiola "often had problems with Africans."
http://www.espn.com/soccer/manchester-c ... -de-bruyneI find your mode of thinking interesting. Interesting because it is so convoluted. Yet I used to believe in this kind of thinking when I was younger.
God, the American educational system has really done a number on our ability to reason critically. And this is to any and all of us who got indoctrinated into this idiocy of stating truths rather than showing and proving it.
I mean, in what other world would the question of whether a player was treated fairly not ask the question: How did they do without said player? And who was he better than that got playing time ahead of him?
Yet, none of you have even attempted to ask or answer these questions. Rather you want to prove guilt by mere assertion.
I' mean even your language choice is all false... By "treated poorly", you mean he did not start them and or sold them... Now this is a normal occurrence in football, is it not? So mere not starting the player or pushing them out of the club in of itseld is not 'treating poorly' but rather, doing so with no justification is!
Again I've asked who was Yaya better than at City this season. Just give me a name. The 3 guys who made PFA team if the year?
Who was Keita better than in Barca's mid in 2011. Give me a name? Xavi? Iniesta? Busquets?
Who was Kelechi better than last year. The starting strikers for Brazil and Argentina?
Who was Benatia supposed to bench?
The notion that folks can just argue these claims in a vacuum and base their conclusion over the words of an aggrieved player is just mind boggling. There are objective factors one can examin openly here.
im sorry but i don't think anyone said those players should play, simply because they are african.
yall keep changing the narrative.
there were some on this board who chose to defend pep before pep defended himself, vilified yaya, one of the greatest african players to ever play the game... called him old, washed up, bitter, etc... because he once wanted a birthday cake?
i chose to look at it objectively, yaya has worked with pep at two clubs, knows him better than any 'outsider,' there may be credence to what he is saying.
there are others who are now waiting for another one of the six african players who played under pep, (or were forced to train with the reserves) over a twelve year coaching career, (a half an african per season) to come out and defend him.
"I am not going to comment on those comments," he told reporters, as quoted by the Daily Mirror.
"I have nothing to say."
pep will not defend himself but lucky enough for him, he has an african army to defend him.
