Player Topic: Wilfried Bony (2015/16)

[BlueTG]

If we sign another striker the youngster becomes fourth choice and personally I want the kid to play a part this year, I would have brought him on instead of Bony in at least one of our games this season, 3 is ample

Whilst I'm happy with our striker situation, 3 isn't always ample depending on who's at your dispense. In our title winning there was a period where out of 4 strikers, we only had Edin fit.

You cannot have 4 good strikers when playing one up front, we have Sergio his back up Bony and a prospect, it's a good balance, who would we sign of real quality who would sit on the bench, if all 3 get injured that is bad luck and we would have to use someone else or draft someone in in January, what other top team has 4 top strikers

I am with the conspiracy theorists, there's nothing wrong with Bony but he avoids International duty. Surely there must be a seasoned pro, a striker, who would love to be part of City squad for a season.

I'm just not convinced by him yet. I think he should be doing much better. He's not been bad but just feel like his performances so far just not been up to the standard we require. I would have Kelechi as the second choice strike for now!

sterling can play upfront as well if needs be dont forget.

I think nacho should be 2nd choice if Bony doesn't pick up after 5 or so games when he does play.

He needs a run of games, I think it's that simple really. We saw it with defenders last season as they were out of form following constant rotation and I think it's the same with Wilf

Could we not loan Villa from NYC? Around the christmas period would be great back up.

Are Van Buyten and Chiellini not available?

I admired his game when he was at Swans and was really excited when we signed him.

he is a very capable player as he showed in the past. for some reason he struggles to fit in our style and I cant put my finger on it.

It feels like he struggle to play the ball in the crowded defense and we usually play a narrow game. he needs more space when facing defenders e.i. on the counter or a thru ball he will be more effective vs. in a one-two short and quick passing situation

in all fairness he has never got a good run of games for us either

Think he's shown he's got the ability to do well for us, just needs a couple of home games to bang a few in to get his confidence going. I'd start him next weekend even if Kun is fit.
