He included nine players from La Liga and two players from the Bundesliga. The 31-year-old midfielder has experience in seven different leagues.

If Yaya Toure could assemble his very own team, he would not include any of his Manchester City teammates, let alone, not anyone playing in the Premier League. Players in La Liga dominate the 31-year-old player’s dream team.

Most of his favorite players come from either his former team (Barcelona) or their archrivals Real Madrid and just two other players from separate teams. It is a very different list from the one that Frank Lampard did back in September where he did include five players from the domestic league.

Toure’s dream team has Iker Casillas as its goalkeeper, then Mats Hummels, Gerard Pique and Sergio Ramos in defense. As midfielders, you would find Dani Alves, Bastian Schweinsteiger, James Rodriguez, Xavi and Andres Iniesta. His roster would conclude with Ronaldo and Messi as the strikers.

Toure would use a 3-5-2 formation if he was the coach of this teamYaya Toure's dream team has no Premier League players in it.Could this be a possible hint that Toure does not like the Premier League? The central midfielder from Ivory Coast who turned pro in 2002 has yet to play in the Bundesliga, just like Schweinsteiger and Hummels do. He has experience in seven different leagues.

Toure explains each of his selections for his fantasy team 

On Wednesday, Toure is expected to play against some of his favorite players as the Citizens visit Barcelona for the second leg of the Champions League round of 16. After missing the first game due to a suspension, he could help his new team defeat La Liga leaders.
