Player Topic: Wilfried Bony (2015/16)

Of course Everton would go for that
Lukaku: 18 starts, 13 goals / 0 assists, one goal per 125 minutes
Bony: 14 starts, 9 goals / 5 assists, one goal per 135 minutes.

At least it will give the boo-boy jokers a fresh target, even though the team would be much poorer because though you could argue bony doesn't fit well with our style, Lukaku would be far worse.

Got to agree with this, and does no one remember why Lukaku left Chelsea? He wanted game time, he'd be in the same position as Dzeko, Jovetic, Bony etc. waiting for Aguero to get injured before getting game time. No chance he'd be up for that, without even mentioning he doesn't suit how we play.

Bony will do his job as a second/third choice striker and substitute, brings plenty that say Aguero can't do, but shouldn't be our first choice striker for half a season as he's turned into this season.

Sure.
But would first wait for you to explain why a player with the same stats as bony (worse if you account for assists) despite playing in a team set up for his strengths, with inferior ball hold-up ability, lesser track record prior to this season is worth 30mn more.

I asked first, but go on then.
Only my opinion, but Bony is shit. He was shit at Swansea, and I think we get more movement from him when he's on the bench.
It takes him half an hour to pull the trigger when the ball is on the deck. He's basically a stump. He's about as good as Kolo Toure. Not very.

His penalty miss yesterday was so bad that it overshadowed all his good work in my mind last night. I'm still appalled that Party Boy didn't let KDB take the penalty but I regret letting that annoyance cloud my views yesterday (not that I posted them).

Bony is a very capable player but he has not found his best form for us and he needs to sooner rather than later. I would point out though that despite a good goals per game ratio at Swansea, his shots per goal ratio was not stunning but IIRC it was very similar to Dzeko's for us.

Why Kev? He's never been a penalty taker, on the other hand Silva who won it was asking for it and if I'm not mistaken has had pens for Spain in shootouts.

While at Swansea, in the calendar year before he signed for us, he was the top scorer in the premier league.

If in your mind that makes him "shit", then you have ridiculously high standards. He's a good premier league striker.

People seem to think we're going to find a second striker as good as Aguero who's willing to sit on the bench most of the time.

The only club who have a better second choice option than us at the moment is Chelsea, who have Remy. I discount Walcott cos arsenal will play him on the wing if giroud plays through the middle.

Maybe you don't understand football very well. You've posted some tripe here in an attempt to be funny, yet you've shown you had no understanding of the game at all.

The guy is shit. I'd rather play Sterling up front that him. You can look at all the stats you want, but he's dogshit.

This considering the chances he gets he really should be scoring more

No I find football very easy to understand, which is why I played it for two decades. There was no attempting to be funny, I just really think he's garbage. A lot of people do.

Your opinion is correct.
