But Bony is currently better than the Negredo of the 2nd half of the season.
No he isn't.

Used to run a works team in a summer league and we came up against a very good health board team who had Saturday amateurs throughout their team. One up front who played southern counties with Threave Rovers and a good friend of mine.
They played a standard 4-4-2 while I thought it best to play a 5-4-1 to counter their threat. Up until around the 60th minute we were in with a shout of getting something out of the game at 0-0, and at half time the health board team were arguing on the sidelines. 2 of the players in defence for our team had never played football for a team before nut they had heart. We lost the game 2-0.
After the game, not only did the ref give us praise but my mate, who is a cracking footballer gave us a heap of praise for how good a game we gave them. They were just a lot fitter than us in the end.
Today when Norwich had the ball they played 3 along the back and without the ball 6 along the back. I'm not defending Wilfred by any means but I do know that when you get your tactics right at any level of football it easy to silence their attack. Also I believe playing a 4-4-2 did not help how we played today and it pisses me off that Pellers still persists with this formation.
When I have time I will do another Bony assessment but believe my friend, it is very difficult to play against 5 defenders let alone 6.
Your memory must really be going. No goals from the end of January onwards, he was dreadful.No he isn't.

As I said not defending him and I don't understand why Keld chi was taken off and Bony was left on.Good post mate but we've tried 4-5-1 with bony and it doesn't really work either
Fact of the matter is Bony isn't good enough
Today he couldn't hit the target, didn't pass at the right times, couldn't trap the ball and has no pace
First 5 months, couldn't agree more. 2nd 5 months, you're just wrong.Negredo was and is 10x the player bony is
I still believe that was a huge mistake letting Negredo go
