SKY SPORTS had an unexpected guest in the studio following a hotly-contested London derby.
Yaya Toure, 42, made a surprise appearance on Super Sunday alongside Daniel Sturridge and Patrick Vieira following Arsenal‘s 2-1 win over Chelsea.
The former Man City legend was abruptly pulled into the studio after being spotted in the stands by the Sky Sports team.
Toure, currently Saudi Arabia‘s assistant manager, sported a beige jacket and dark green beanie.
When asked how much the duo of Toure and Vieira are worth, Sturridge joked: “We’re talking at least £300 to 500million.”
Fans have been left bewildered by his sudden showing, with one writing on X: “They got Yaya Toure from the stands and into the studio I’m in tears.”
Another said: “Was literally wondering what Yaya Toure, with a beanie on, was thinking about the game. Top content.”
Toure did not disappoint with his punditry, boldly predicting Man City to win the league as they “don’t fear a set piece team”.
The Ivorian said: “I am disappointed about this game. We want to see fluid football, passing, attacking, scoring chances.
“But at the end of the day we see 3 goals from set pieces. In a derby, it’s strange.

“Winning was obviously really important for Arsenal, but as a fan I want to see more.”
William Saliba had put Arsenal ahead, before Piero Hincapie’s own goal before half-time levelled proceedings.
But Jurrien Timber scored the winning goal from Declan Rice‘s corner as Pedro Neto was sent off shortly after to seal an all-important three points for the Gunners.
Arsenal restored their five-point cushion atop the Premier League table albeit having played a game extra.
But Toure remains confident his former team will get the job done, adding: “Man City will win the league.”
A third fan said: “Yaya Toure just ghosting into the Sky Sports studio pro bono and absolutely nailing the current state of the Premier League title race. Best pundit all season.”
