Midfielder Manchester City Yaya Toure believes that over time, "citizens" were able to turn into a top club.

After the end of this season, Toure will leave Manchester City - this was previously announced by the head coach of the team Josep Guardiola.

Moving to the camp of the "blue moon" in 2010, Yaya became a real leader of the team, which at that time was just beginning its journey to the top of English football. According to the Ivorian, now the "townspeople" have achieved their goals.

"I'm happy. People think that I will be sad for leaving, but I'm glad because I left a good legacy ".

"In early 2011, in our locker room you could hear laughter after the defeat, I was very unhappy with this".

"Now, when we lose or even play in a draw - all the sad and angry.

This is the mentality of the winner, which I like. This is the kind of character you need to have to fight against Barcelona and Real Madrid, because in these clubs it's still ".

"They are brought up like this because they are champions. Now we are champions, despite the fact that the team is quite young. I hope the next year will be even brighter and better, "- told Tours in an interview with Sky Sports.

Previously, Yaya Toure called the opponent, against whom it was hardest for him to play.
