He's not a slight lad, but I don't buy that he's overweight, he's just big. It's the least of his problems anyway

Dragging that arse round can't be easy though

99.9% of people who saw the game today - "bony was shit and shouldn't have been picked"
Dax777 - "it's all agueros fault"

A few months ago I listened to some ex pro footballer talking on a radio programme about appearing to try in a football game, but in reality, and done expertly, were in actual fact hiding on the field, and not taking part at all. Since then I've noticed Bony excel in this particular skill and ability on every occasion I've seen him play. You know, appearing to make a run or to 'show' for the ball, but never quite getting the pass or being on the end of a move that altered the outcome of a game.
Today, exposed Bony in all his glory, ( or not as the case may be). On countless occasions he was just too late or never quite able to receive a pass. Two particular instances stand out for me. First was when Sergio won the ball back in our right full back position and worked his way up our right flank. He waited, and waited with the ball for support. None came. Bony hadn't crossed the half way line. On another occasion Sergio again got the ball in space in the opposition's half. Bony firstly walked towards Sergio, then when the opposition had closed him down, he faked an effort to make himself available. Just think about all the times that Bony has nearly got the ball or nearly found space to receive a pass.
I take no pleasure in highlighting his non effort, but Pellegrini, for all of his attributes and loyalty shown recently with Willy v Joe in the CC cup final, must take the blame and responsibility for the misplaced loyalty shown in Bony. Every game is absolutely vital in the run in, so to play Bony ahead of Kelechi makes no sense at all.
I've never booed a City player, and never will. That said, Bony, and his pathetic ' can't be arsed ' attitude insults our club and tries my resolve. City fans, me included alway have loved a trier no matter what ability they possessed. I'm sure there is a footballer within, but the charade that is Bony, and his lack of effort will be with me even when he leaves the club. This should be sooner than later.
