it depends, I just think Yaya had alot more in his locker, I can't remember what team Barca played on the last game, but that run he did to set up Messi is the type of dribbles he would produce on a regular basis
and people have short term memories if they don't remember what a warrior Toure can be in the middle of the park, just look at the Treble season, Toure is that all rounder, although I think they are both better than Masherano
(thought I'd throw that in there)
Yeah Toure could do that absolutely. Which is why i find it baffling that he doesnt play that role for City, he could be the driving force in midfield but instead floats about the top of the midfield doing not a lot of anything... Whilst the likes of De Jong kicks people and Barry runs around like a donkey tugging a cart...
Busquets can dribble though, he just doesnt have that pace. What he does have is a fantastic touch, the ability to get out of danger with skill, first time passing as good as anyones in that team (yes even iniesta, messi, xavi), positional sense and a football brain.
Take into account that he outed Yaya from the first team at the age of 20/21 and then went on and played the role exceptionally for Spain in the world cup and you have to wonder what the future holds for him.
Yaya has plenty of years left in him but at around 5 years his junior you have to say that it was probably the right decision to cash in on Yaya Toure and keep the still developing Busquets.
