Not sure which games you were watching but at time Bony reminded me of that carthorse Benjani in that he couldn't trap a bag of sand. He has a lot to prove this season and I think that letting Dzeko and Jovetic go without a replacement is a massive gamble.

You obviously didn't watch too many games that Wilf featured in. His first touch is so much better than Dzeko's and Jovetic's and he holds the ball up far better than either and wins more headers than them both. Dzeko for all his important goals had a poor first and second touch and his third was often a foul
 
It's difficult to move clubs mid season - very few players hit the ground running following a January transfer. Especially with ACON thrown into the mix, and only being given very limited game time, I think all things considered he did ok.

He does need to kick on this season though, and hope not going on pre-season tour and having this virus etc. isn't going to be an excuse for poor performances.

He was a bit sloppy with his passing at times, in one game wayward passes by bony almost cost us.

He looked ok in some games and not so good in others. However coming off the bench in most games isn't easy.

I was hoping for a good pre season from him but that has gone tits up.

To be fair I have a better first touch than Dzeko.

Will he be involved in Stuttgart or is he still in 'quarantine'?

not in quarantine if they let him train in the facilities and do the interview.
