Mark Noble has revealed the weird way Yaya Toure used to communicate with teammates on the pitch.

Ivorian midfielder Toure joined Manchester City back in 2010 after spending three years playing for Barcelona.

Throughout his years with the Blues, Toure developed into one of the best midfielders in the world.

In total, he made 316 appearances for the club, scoring 79 goals. Whilst winning three Premier Leagues, two League Cups and one FA Cup.

Now, former West Ham captain Noble has revealed the strange way Toure communicated with his teammates. You can watch the video below.

Whilst being interviewed by Ben Foster on his podcast, Fozcast, Noble was asked about his memories of Toure.

Noble said: “Not very nice ones! He was a machine mate, he was technically so good, physically so good.

“He could defend, could score, he was a top top player.

“And I always remember, when he used to call for the ball on the pitch, he used to like whistle.

“It was so obvious to me when you’re playing against Man City and he’s having 150 touches a game and you got that in your ear hole every two seconds. But he is a top player and actually a really lovely guy.”

After leaving City in 2018, Toure played for Greek side Olympiacos and Chinese club Qingdao Huanghai before calling time on his career in 2019, aged 35.

Toure recently gave his opinions on this season’s Premier League title race.

He said: “The pressure is going to go both ways. You can see the results where Man City lost a point and Arsenal got three points in a tough game where they have twice been on the back foot.

“At this moment Arsenal are doing fantastically well.

“The fans will be enjoying it. I don't know who will win it. I hope Man City will make it but let's see as they are both in fantastic form in the running at the moment.”
