Yaya Touré revisits a defining episode with Guardiola

"I don't see a man": Yaya Touré slams Pep Guardiola
Appearing on Zack Nani's show, Yaya Touré reignited his long-standing and intense feud with Pep Guardiola. The Ivorian didn't pull any punches, delivering a statement that immediately set social media ablaze: "I don't see a man, I see a snake". This blunt remark perfectly sums up the deeply fractured relationship between the two men since their time together at FC Barcelona. Touré recounted how Guardiola called him back after the World Cup, despite having "not played him the entire year"—a move that left those close to him baffled.
The former Barcelona and Manchester City midfielder also spoke at length about the incident when his wife warned him against returning to Catalonia:
"My wife told me: 'Are you really going to listen to all that nonsense? He did you wrong, and now he wants you to stay? Let's go to Manchester, my brother.'"
She even went so far as to call Guardiola a "Sheytan," saying he "is not a man, he's mean."
