The Ivorian hailed Manchester United duo Angel di Maria and Radamel Falcao, as well as Real Madrid’s acquisition of James Rodriguez. He also bizarrely included Liverpool’s summer signing Mario Balotelli, despite the controversial Italian striker being widely regarded as something of a flop so far this season.
Balotelli is yet to score a single Premier League goal for his new club, and has been targeted by fans for abuse and criticism following a number of lacklustre performances as well as several spurned chances in front of goal.
31-year-old Yaya Toure’s final pick was former teammate Alvaro Negredo who made the move to Valencia this summer. Another unusual choice from the powerful midfielder, considering Negredo has been injured for the majority of the season.
