Don't mind people disagreeing, just prefer it when they say something that's actually substantial.

Not like "Thought he was very, very average today" ... Nope that's literally it, not going into it in any more detail.

Ok here is something a bit more substantial.

His work rate is average....he rarely closrd down the defenders all game. His first touch is erratic and his hold up play is his big strength at tge moment.

His firsy goal was purely down to a gk erroelr and he wouldnt have got anywhere near it if that hadnt happened. His secong goal gives me hope that he can improve cause he needs to and his celebration which was one of relief i think echoed that. His passing was at times good ( yje through ball to sterling) but equally at times poor and he wasted at least one golden chance when 10- 12 yds out which most strikers most of the time would score.

Average my arse, he played excellent today. When you watch the game through a screen you sometimes don't appreciate a player as much as when you're there live.

He's a very good player who has had a difficult start at City. He needs a consistent run of games to show his best form and he may get that now. I would expect his finishing to improve now that he has scored a couple of goals in one game.

Didn't relise it until I saw tv coverage this evening but one back heel that he did was absolutely sublime.

His celebration for his second goal said it all for me, that was the goal he knew he could score, but wasn't getting, great first touch, great finish. I too thought he was pretty average today, and more than once took the steam out of an attack with his extra unnecessary touch, but he kept going, and his second should be a huge confidence boost.

I noticed that back heel OB1, and said so at the time, real quality touch, as was the pass to Sterling through a crowd after he'd had a bad first touch then dallied a bit.

Scored twice, and made a goal, should be a big boost for him, he can play at our level, but he needs to work harder than he did for much of today, and needs to stop slowing attacks down.

MOTD never give us any credit and they singled him out for his brilliant performance. Everyone is entitled to an opinion of course, but yours is shit.

You pay my 175 quid teain fare and get me every friday off work and ill gladly come to the home games.

And as for miserable...hahaha...u left manchester so to not havevto put up with the negative shit in that place every time you walk down thecstreet. I live by the sea and get to be by the beach nearly every day. I love my job and my life so sorry to disappoint you but i have a very happy life indeed

i live by the sea , and it costs me close to £100 a game , and i get to most home matches , its not the cost , its what your prepared to give up , to watch your football club , perhaps making a financial sacrifice and attending the occasional match would enrich your apparent life of bliss.

MOTD never give us any credit and they singled him out for his brilliant performance. You are in fact an idiot, everyone is entitled to an opinion of course, but yours is shit.

I don't agree with simon23 but can we lay off the personal abuse please.

Bony was good today. End of. Haters move on...

 

[leewill31]

Works his as off and i doubt there is a better player than Bony that can get and hold the ball away from defenders like he does i think he is his own worst enemy sometimes and needs to maybe needs to be more selfish on goal.
