Are we looking to sign a striker?

We need to sell bony and buy an upgrade, preferably with legs and full use of them this time. And one with his head not on backwards
 
I've got the perfect signing in that case... Jo!

In all seriousness, Bony mystifies me - what on earth happened to the to player we signed from Swansea?

Recovering from malaria and being asked to play in a role that is unnatural for him. Don't get me wrong he's been utter dogshit for us, but in the right team, playing to his strengths, he could be back to the player he was at Swansea.

Yeah.... tend to agree. Still, I'd sell him and wish him the best in his new club.

I'd expect Bony to perform well wherever we trade him next... but for City - he just hasn't cut it.
 
Bit controversial but long at Southampton would be a good back up.

Yes, yes he would. He turned down double the money he's getting from Saints to go to Spurs though as he didn't want to sit on the bench, so I doubt it'll happen.
 
We need to avoid bringing in a backup player. We're unlikely to get anyone better than Bony who's willing to sit on the bench, unless we can uncover a gem of a young player. What we need is a player in the mould of Neymar or Aubameyang. Someone who capable of playing anywhere across a front three, so that when Aguero is fit, he can play out wide, but when Aguero's injured, he can move into a central role. Aubameyang would be decent, but the fact that he chose to represent Gabon means we miss him every other year for a month, which kinda defeats the point of bringing him in. Obviously the other option would be Messi...
