Bony can give Hart an option, when playing out from the back is restricted by high-pressing opposition. A simple kick down the middle to a target capable of winning the header is something we have missed since Negredo got injured. It is not 'hoofball', just a way of keeping the opposition off balance. We have the players to thrive off knock-downs if given the chance.

It's getting to feel a long time ago, but we actually caught up with Chelsea when we were having to play 4-6-0...

You got your wish......lets just hope you got the Dzeko part right as well.

A bit hard when our back room staff seem to be getting our players injured all the time.

Such a pointless signing
And I rate him as a player but he just isn't what we needed

What do we do to these players? Here is a bloke who hasn't missed a solitary minute of football since 2013, and he's been with us 5 mintes and is now crocked, injured in fucking training. You really could not make it up.

My bad, I totally read the post wrong and I apologise.
Am pissed off that our players keep getting injured. If anything needs to be sorted it's this over the summer.

Typical City!
When we were first linked with him people were saying that "he never gets injured" as a plus point. He does now!
