He never seemed to have enough of it to make it worth brushing

I don't think Bony is a bad player tbf, I think he's quite agile for someone so stocky and his finishing is decent. He was really good at Swansea but at City he was always going to be Aguero's understudy. He seemed to score a bit though during Aguero's injury lay offs.

Not the top quality guy we want but a different kind of option to Giroud at least.

I never understood why cit bought bony in the first place, he was never ging to get much game time or stay there.

Like many, he's a big time charlie who values the money over the game. Lots of them decorating the benches in gypoland and chavland.

Probably another BS rumour put out by our PR team and another sob story when this deal never happens.

id wager it was put out by Mahrez's team.

Maybe pursuing another contract or another club?

And there you have it!

Everyone bar Wenger realises that £30mill won't be enough. Does he do this because he actually wants the player, or because he wants the fans to think he wants the player? Same with Lacazette, a big bid might have shifted him. Same with Suarez before, something a little more ambitious than £1 might have worked. But, you know, if Wenger says the player of last season is only worth £30mill in this market then he is right and everyone else is wrong.

Quite possibly. It was reported he's secured £80k per week whereas Vardy has landed himself £100k. A little push for the extra £20k before the kick-off. It's not inconceivable. The only thing that's inconceivable is us bidding enough to shift him.

Also, this Bony transfer to Everton may start the ball rolling on some bigger transfers.

Lukaku to Chelsea you mean?

Sky Sports saying we are in talks with Mustafi's agent.......can see this signing this guy by Friday lunch which gives him more that enough time to thoroughly familiarise himself with the way we defend.

Guardian now saying Mahrez is staying after talks with the club
