Yaya Toure for a season at Chelsea?

Yaya Toure's agent has recently given an interview publicly criticizing Pep Guardiola and has stated that Toure is willing to play for one season for a top six team for only one pound per week and he is very keen to get one over Pep.So should Chelsea sign Yaya as we are effectively cost cutting ourselves and this might be an offer too good to refuse for all parties concerned.Yaya is still very powerful and he might offer some vital experience and stability in centre of midfield for Chelsea next season.Views?Fellow Chelsea fans?

Speaking seriously, it would depend how much game time he'd be expecting (and his wages, that £1 thing is nonsense). People talking on here about pushing RLC, I'd argue having Yaya in and around the club would do wonders for him - Yaya represents the best possible player RLC can be if he applies himself.

If we rolled into next season with a midfield of Kante, Fabregas, Seri, RLC & Yaya, I dunno about anyone else but I'd be satisfied with that

Sorry did I miss something when Yaya has actually done something over the last couple of years?

Happy with a midfield that has Yaya and Fibreglass in it? Seriously how many more passengers do we want?

If he'd be happy as a rotational option and took a 400% pay cut, why not?

One year deal. We certainly have no holding player (which is his position now). Europa next year means we can't really have too many options. RLC could benefit from it off the pitch, and possibly Seri as well with the Ivorian connection. Where's the downside?

Just to put this into prospective. Someone posted an article the other day saying we should bring Mikel back, so we've established the bar is low

He's just accused Pep of racism..,...can't see this one happening.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He accused Pep of not liking African players. We have a history of good African players at the club, maybe even the best history of all PL clubs. Especially as an African player scored the winning goal for us in a CL Final

Dislikes Pep accusing him of racism.

Joins us, because he's African

Yeah no traces of racism there

Balderdash x 2 = Bollox.
No way do we want a hugely devisive figure like him in the dressing room, his attitude stinks like hell,and would infect the younger players.

Depends. You don't get more temperamental and divisive than Ibrahimovic and players like Rashford have spoke glowingly about the impact he had on him.

He wouldn't have stuck around at one club for as long as he has without being an influential dressing room figure. His only major issue seems to be with Pep (something he and Zlatan ironically have in common).

All irrelevant discussion anyway. It's never gunna actually happen
