If we play him is a 4-4-2 alongside Sterling or Aguero then we will see just how good he is.

No, we won't. His level is so obviously lower than what we are striving for. I wish he would even look fucking interested for once, appears to have an attitude on him.

I can't even defend him anymore, let alone that our club officials spunked the best part of 30 fucking million pounds.

If he can only play in a 442 this tells you how shit he is.

This would also be the same 442 that has been practically abandoned due to being overrun in midfield time and time again.

Can you image how we would have got on today with only 2 in the centre mid!!
Ouch!

He is shit and doesn't give a toss.

...That is all.

And what level is that?

We want a striker who can score goals week in week out in the PL and Bony has proved he can do that.

Bony is not a mobile striker, never has been and never will be. We knew that before we signed him so expecting him to make constant runs is not going to happen.

Maybe if he is the target man and we have the likes of Sterling, Ageuro and KDB running off him and exploiting the space, it could bring out the best in him. At the moment though, I don't see any player willing to make a run ahead of him so we are utilising him in a manner which does not suit him.

It's the equivalent of entering a Formula 1 car in a rally circuit race. You cannot expect to get the most out of a player if you are not playing him to his strengths.

This is becoming an all to frequent problem with our signings. We sign Sterling, a fast and skilful winger but encourage him to play it safe and keep the ball. We sign KDB and expect him to be like Silva. If we are going to pay the big bucks on players then at least play them to their strengths.

On the plus side bony has earnt this week, what most people take 4/5 years to earn, i say pay him double, he might fucking run once in a while.

He's a mid-table striker. I'd be fucking seething if we went and spent £20+ million on Vardy because he's proved he can score 20+ goals in the top flight over a couple of seasons at 27/28 years old. Exactly like we have with Bony.

should never play again.....has never been suited to the team and should be sold asap

kelechi should be playing ahead of this guy while run is out

A goal scorer is a goal scorer.

If you can score 20 goals a season for Swansea or Leicester and a side like City or Arsenal, who create more opportunities per game, come in for you then there is a good chance you can improve.

We bought Bony and have expected him to adapt to a different role. That is 100% our fault. I said at the time a player like Benteke or Lukaku would have been better suited to our team, especially if we were moving to a 4-2-3-1. However, we signed Bony.

Don't forget he regularly scored against the likes of Us, United and Chelsea so he cant be that bad.
