PICS: Whoever runs Man City’s social media accounts made sure not to forget Yaya Toure’s birthday

We presume he got a cake and card too

Twitter, check. Facebook, check. Instagram, check. Vine, sh*t!!

Manchester City’s social media manager has been up the bloody walls making sure to avoid a repeat of YayaBirthdayGate.

Twitter was the first port of call for the club as they looked to keep their midfielder happy.

And Facebook was quickly updated to make sure that the Ivorian knew that his birthday was well in their minds.

Join us in wishing Yaya Touré a very happy 32nd birthday today!
