Domenech: Box-to-box Yaya Toure is 'now a center-circle-to-center-circle midfielder'

Raymond Domenech, who coached France to the 2006 World Cup final, says that "not even in their dreams" could Manchester City hope to beat Paris Saint-Germain

Former France coach Raymond Domenech believes Yaya Toure is past his best, labelling the Manchester City star a "center-circle-to-center-circle midfielder".

Toure scored 24 goals during City's title-winning 2013-14 season but has just eight so far this term and has been accused of lethargy.

When asked about Manuel Pellegrini's side's upcoming Champions League quarterfinal tie against Paris Saint-Germain, Domenech made it clear he did not see the Ivorian as a major threat.
