    The bend on that from Nasri was great - especially first time.

        2 ridiculous goals there but the actual way they attack doesn't make me think they're going to score here. I guess we've been spoiled this season but its the fact they have quality players who pull those kind of things off, its the fact they hardly ever look fluid is why I don't enjoy watching them most of the time. Robotic sums them up well.

          When Toure turns up, he can be unplayable. He's certainly a very good footballer, but I wouldn't say the best 'all-rounder' in the world.

            Sunderland clinging on for dear life now. Adam Johnson hauled off as well as Seb Larsson.

              On the plus side,the team that wins the league cup usually goes on a terrible run for the rest of the season.Happens every year. Hopefully City do too.

                When he turns up?

                He's absolutely outstanding.. world class footballer. Actually as a matter of interest who would you consider a better all round footballer?

                  Toure is superb. I was astonished that Barca let him go in the first place.

                    incredible talent. Can play CB,DM, AM, lightening quick,strong, can pass & scores a lot of goals. Guy is the most complete footballer on the planet for me....ridiculous player.

                      Talk to City fans, I think a lot of them are pretty frustrated by him as he's capable of stuff like today but he plods through a lot of games for them as well and gives the impression of not being arsed a lot of the time.

                        I'm talking to a City fan now & he just told you to shut up

                        I would say their well frustrated with him banging in 13 league goals from midfield alright. They would be devastated if they lost Toure.. any team would.

                          He's top class there is no doubt but he doesn't always turn up.

                          I thought Ronaldo was the most complete player on the planet or was it Aguero or Messi or Ribery; you change your mind and back track so often it's hard to keep up

                            I wish we had the Toure brother that frustrates rather than the one that infuriates.

                              I'd agree with that!

                                Yeah, when he turns up. I think he can be petulant, lazy and uninterested at times. He's having a very good season whilst in his prime, it's not unusual but nor has it been regular occurrence throughout his career.

                                As for the best all-round footballer, it's hard to say. You'd be looking at a player that does everything, but Toure is only allowed to play further forward because of Fernandinho and as such, his goal scoring record this season reflects that.
