EFC-Paul Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 (edited) I think he would do a good job fairly like for like in a few area's but at 27 with very limited playing time and he'll be off to the ACON's it would have to be a fairly low fee to get me interested personally Rather than go for a player in that Lukaku mould if you will I've said before I'd rather go down a different route and play with a front three our style and play is vastly dictated by playing one upfront were too one dimensional Maybe losing Lukaku (if he goes) will have the Rooney effect and make us a better side... just a thought Edited April 3, 2016 by EFC-Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 Seriously, you don't seem to rate anyone. I don't rate Belgians apparently. I hated Jan marie pfaff because he was supposed to be better than southall, I don't like Stella as it leads to domestic abuse, tin tin was shit... I did like Enzo scifo though, he should have been much more. Deacs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makis Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 the thing is I do rate people but I'd be here all night. Also why have you singled me out ?

Matt Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 Apparently part of any deal Stones. As a counter balance / support striker I'm not bothered, but I still don't see him as a replacement if Rom goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjazzbassist Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 Good move if it's part of the stones deal. Yes please would be a great second striker or pair with rom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msloan78 Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 I'd be ok with Bony plus £30-35m Bony's value certainly can't have increased much (if anything) while he's been there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 A good player. Solid all round game. Didn't expect him to flourish at city as a 15 minutes here and there player. He is suited to a system that uses his attributes. Not as a go and grab us a goal djecko type player. If we get him for £18m and offload niasse for £8m then I'd be happy.

c1982 Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 The option to go 4-4-2 with Mirallas/ Geri supplying Bony/ Lukaku against teams who may come to Goodison to defend could make a massive difference as for years this has been one of our main struggles.

Aidan Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 Id I'd be ok with Bony plus £30-35mBony's value certainly can't have increased much (if anything) while he's been there. I'd be happy with £35 and Bony, losing a centre half who's defending is at times questionable, but gaining the back up striker we need, along with a pretty sum in the bank isn't the worst of ideas. Right now I think we're a side that needs to focus on experience in the first team. Sign some top players who know how the league works. Great striker to hold up the ball, and to push Rom for his place. Who do we replace Stones with though? Van Dijk? Or anther ball playing defender, which I'd imagine not many would wish to join us.

Matt Posted August 7, 2016 Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 No seen much of Bony, what's he like?big fish in a small pond at Swansea, did nothing since his move to City. But, there is a decent player in there. Not great but decent. I think £40m and him would be great for Stones. If we could get £50m, Begovic and Remy for Rom too (the latest rumour) we'd have 3 solid, yet unspectacular, signings and an extra £90m to play with. Can't argue with that no matter how much I want to keep them both duncanmckenzieismagic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong I'd have him here before going to City and having very limited time to bed himself in he was great at Swansea and I do think he'd still be a decent signing but I'm not reading into him driving around 30/40 minutes from where he lives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirallas Posted August 7, 2016 Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 I thought Bony's loan move to Galatasaray was pretty much done and dusted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted August 7, 2016 Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 Bony goals per minutes played is solid. He's like a big dog... needs exercise. A few minutes here and is no good to many strikers. Some thrive off impact subs, not him... he's a bloody big unit who engages in a battle with centre halves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add Williams and a third striking option we'd at least look like having options going into the new season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
