10-15? Martial cost £38m

Kelechi must be worth at least that


Or 58 if you use criteria applied when reporting City's transfer fees.

Martial with the add ons will be at least £56m. £36m fee + £10m each when he gets a certain number of goals and caps, both of which he will do.

Iheanacho must be in this bracket

I totally agree in this. Only question if Nasri Or Tintin should be left out, which is down to the medical team to answer.

I guess you're also turning into a leathery old cunt.

Iheanacho is a fantastic prospect. In many ways he looks like the finished product despite only being 19. He will most definitely become a better footballer than Bony, and probably already is in almost all respects.

But what I don't get is how that equates to Bony being shit. I can only assume that it's a case of the collective and oh so common colour blindness of this forum, where things are only seen in black or white.

Bony is a good player who can be very important for us if used correctly. I agree that Iheanacho should more often get the nod ahead of him, but in some games Bony is still the better option.

If you recall, I said Bony is only any fucking use to our team when he plays with another forward, but if you think having the slow cunt playing from the off, on his own, instead of playing Nacho...then you're on drugs.

Bony is, and never will be, a regular match winner for us.

Then be more precise you twot...........if used correctly ,,,, meaning what exactly? as I took that as in you would put him upfront before Nacho as lone striker.

Bony needs other players to do the running for him. Imo he's better with the back towards the goal, sucking the ball in and feeding it to forward running players, before getting into position in the penalty box. Whether these "runners" are midfielders ore midfielders + a striker partner is irrelevant.

I think he is particularly useful in though games where we need an outlet up front.

I also think he can be very handy as one of two strikers when trying to break down teams that park the bus.

And by the way, my first post wasn't aimed at you, you touchy old fart.

Got it, but I remembered the tough CL game we had where he tried to do exactly that and got fucked for it...over and over he was dispossessed.

I remember Craig Bellamy saying that some players that hold the ball up is all fine and well but the manager should always take a faster forward option every sIngle time as defenders cack themselves.

I think Craig might have spoken out of self interest ;-)

He's sort of got a point, but you will also lose possession much faster with a pacy lightweight upfront (Nb! I'm not calling Ian lightweight).

Bony will never be the better option , he cant run and his movement has been mostly awful . I had high hopes for him when he signed for City but the simple fact is he doesn't suit our style . Shame really , will deffo be sold this summer !

I agree with you when you say that Nacho being good doesn't mean Bony is bad.
I also agree with you in your first paragraph above. But as for the rest of your assessment, I would actually go with Nacho ahead of Bony at this stage. I understand he is being carefully managed and rightly so, but I think he has shown us enough in the little he has played to deserve to be ahead of Bony.
Bony is out injured and should have to earn the displacement of Nacho.
Nacho attacks the front post and will always score goals because he has a natural instinct that cannot be taught.
He is also much more on the same wavelength as Aguero, Silva and KDB already.
I think he showed that when he came on against West Ham.

I think we need our three strikers fit. Form would say Kun and Nacho should be picked first.
I think the whole team should be picked on form.
