Former QPR star Malcolm Allen has branded Yaya Toure's agent as "despicable".
Mad Dog wrote in the Daily Mail: "What an absolute farce the situation at Manchester City with Yaya Toure has become. There's only one thing that man wants - and that is more money and a longer contract.
"It was rubbish what his agent Dimitry Seluk said about him being unhappy that the club did not celebrate his birthday. There's no doubt he is top quality and top class, and without him Manchester City would not have won the Barclays Premier League.
"But why his agent didn't just go and knock on Sheikh Mansour's door to negotiate another year and a further pile of wedge is beyond me. The conduct and behaviour of some of these agents is quite despicable."
