Baseless speculation Iheanacho/Bony

Spot on and I've no idea why! Nacho has shown a desire to drop deeper to pick up the ball, and though Aguero likes to do that as well all it takes is communication to day - one of you push forward and make runs in behind. The two of them would work a lot better than Bony and Aguero. They just don't have a relationship and Bony has done nothing and continues to show a lack of ability/confidence to perform for City unfortunately. Pellegrini though continues to swap Aguero for Nacho and bring on Bony to support him. It's predictable and it doesn't work.
Agreed
It would seem he would put the kid in just to TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT if for no other reason
 
nacho man is the man for the future

I would say he could be the man for the moment, never mind the future. It seemed to me that the more he was involved the better he got. Took up good positions, although he gave away the ball a few times initially he got better quickly and linked up well. He's clearly confident in front of goal and that shot from outside the box is something we do not see enough of. I don't think short sub appearances do him any favours.
 
Kelechi brilliant and fair play to Bony for a great pass to set the lad up as well.
 
I don't think today's match will have any bearing on playing time for Tuesday. Bony will be the man to come on and Nacho will watch from the bench.

If you give Bony the right service, he will hold the ball up and lay it off to a team mate (100% on that today) or get get a strike in on goal. He is a decent player in the right set-up but City are probably not that.

Kelechi can still learn from Bony's hold up play but he has natural gifts that Bony (and many others) can only dream of.
