In the line-ups
45 appearances in recorded line-ups · 2004–2015The archive holds 45 team sheets naming Yaya Touré in Ivory Coast's starting line-up, from 2004-10-10 to 2015-02-08.
45 appearances in the starting line-ups the archive holds — not a career total. Our line-up coverage is partial, so a match he played that we hold no sheet for is simply not counted here.
