I wouldn't mind seeing this again:

I saw that and thought BOOM

Should be 4th choice Nevermind second.

Not great as a sub,just doesn't get into the game,i would have started him and given sergio second 45 against tired legs he would have been a great impact even though he is not fully fit

I just cannot see what Pellegrini sees in Bony as an impact sub, Iheanacho has more energy and more awareness in the opposition area, for me he was the more obvious sub last night for the last 25 mins or so if Aguero had to go off. But then Pellegrini's subs seem to be generally predictable and not based on the match situation at the time.

When i remember how many Edin goals from bench score, Is Negredo left in same time with Edin or before. And that 2 min for Nacho was pheeew. We need striker and i would love Pogba also so i dont watch Yaya ( who is done great deal to us) walking half of match , hes slowing our attacks and counters now also.

Iheanacho is regarded as a good prospect now by City fans. Had been used more often he'd probably have been written off. Needs to be brought through gradually, and get more game time, but it's difficult trying to fit 3 strikers into one position.

Bony is the 2nd choice because a) he's scoring and b) he can hold the ball up and bring other players into the game c) he can defend at set pieces

Or on the flip side is static and provides no pace or movement. I have supported him but now see that he does not fit in our system, and certainly will not fit into Pep's. Huth must have been delighted with the Bony substitution, as it did not challenge him at all with pace and movement. Think he will be gone at the end of the season. Bringing Kelechi through gradually is one thing but two minutes here and there is a joke.

Bony was poor investment and poor change for players we should keep until Nacho ge in Rhtyam . If was 0 2 last night he would get more minutes. When i remember Baloteli , Tevez , Dzeko , Kun Aguero , Negredo after. Now that was dangerus strikers , and if one does not work other where . They all have Titles before City and we change all that , ok changes come but all that with Swensa player who waas good here but is not light the fire . Our transfer policy is bad. And we are no team at the moment dont know why ? We where in seasons we win Championship

I think it partly depends on whether the opposition defence are tiring or not. Bony helped to destroy a fading Broussia as an impact sub!

His introduction on Saturday made a difference too, our players were all of a sudden willing to throw crosses into the box because he was in there, we scored twice and won the game as a result of this.
