Almost every touch today was poor but he did not get any good service.

You could say that about all 11 City players at that time. Nobody did anything once PG changed the shape of the team & probably most were even worse than him, including all of the back 4 passing to Leicester at least once & Yaya boiting it into people stood next to him etc.

Bony was not noticeably better nor worse than anyone else from the moment he came on to the final whistle imo. Not worth mentioning either way.
 
For all Bony's faults, and they are numerous, I don't really understand why he's being made the scapegoat for tonight. If he'd missed a load of sitters it would make more sense, but it was a collective "failure" tonight (albeit a draw against the second placed team in the league).

The lazy, largely uninterested style get on my nerves.

But, yes, Aguero was just as bad.

Bony's pass completion was 40%. Even Hart had better completion than that so I submit that you are entirely wrong to suggest that he was not noticeably worse than his team mates.

Not sure it's fair to compare a keeper who largely gets to make passes unopposed, to a forward who is under immediate pressure when he gets the ball. It's comparing apples and oranges.
