I've no doubting he's a really good player but it struck me how much it's clearly not his style to run about during the Barca game. Aguero doesn't either really, and im a bit disappointed as i like the high pressing game which i dont think we'll do now.

We have lots of attacking midfielders so making best use of them is in that system. 4-4-2 leaves several players are out of the game when our midfield is overrun.
Team in a 4-5-1 for Sunday should be:
---------------------------Hart
Zabaleta-----Kompany----Mangala-----Clichy
Navas--------Yaya------Fernandinho----Milner
-----------------------Silva
-----------------------Aguero

So you've seen him for 52 minutes over two subs appearances and you're ready to pass judgment?

No, i'm not. He just wasn't a runner at Swansea either and ive seen plenty of him there. As I said, i've no doubt he's great, but he's definitely not a runner - the bits i saw of him made me actually think 'hang on, i didn't consider that'.
That's not passing judgement - its just commenting on his attributes. It's by no means a criticism either, just he's a different player.
Now you can kindly climb down from that high horse of yours if you want?

When did Swansea wear a blue shirt?

If you're trying to be clever it's not working. You know fully well i meant now he's had a couple of appearances for City.

I am showing concern towards how much Bony is willing to run around, especially now I have seen him in a blue shirt - i mean, blue shirt is hardly cryptic stuff is it? Can't think of any team that Bony plays for 'now' that wears a blue shirt.
