Yaya Toure joined Barcelona from Monaco. He was a dynamic midfielder who had the tendency to venture forward. His strength and freekick abilities were some of the many other capabilities of the Ivorian international.

Pep Guardiola benched the midfielder for an academy graduate in the name of a certain Sergio Busquets who made the position his own and started a legacy as one of the best defensive midfielders of his generation.

Yaya Toure left for Manchester City and went on to win the Premier League and carried the team to greatness under Manuel Pellegrini. But when Pep came to the Etihad, he was again frozen out of the squad and was instead let to leave for free.

Barcelona could have made perfectly good use with a player like Yaya Toure who offers something different to what the other players offered. He left the club due to a fallout with the manager and it's unfortunate that he had to leave on such a low.
