(Wilfried Bony) I hate to bring it back up again BUT....

[Magic_Michu]

I was running this morning and who did I see out for a run on Swansea Bay but... Wilfried Bony.

We are in dire need for a number 9 striker.

Currently twiddling his thumbs, keeping himself fit in Swansea we have one of our best ever strikers... and the way Lowe & Ayew are at the moment... a 45 yr old Wilfried Bony would surely do a better job up top than those 2.

A short term deal (if not on ridiculous wages)... he'd bring a completely different option to what we already have... at worst I could see that he could hold the ball up and bring others into play.

Surely he couldn't be any worse than what we currently have?

I hear Trundle can beat him over a 20 metre sprint

My mother can and she’s been dead for almost 5 years.

He still had a good pace on the beach today

Why not go whole hog, get Akinfenwa back as well, imagine those two up top!

Because Bony was a World Class striker for us and has been scoring goals in the last couple of seasons and is ‘supposedly’ still only 32.

World Class?

He was brilliant, world class though?

Never go back, we should have learned this by now.

 

[Magic_Michu]

We don’t have any natural strikers... we’re crying out for one... and we have Bony still living here.

I don’t see what’s to lose on a short term, maybe pay as you play, contract.

Do people honestly think he’d do a worse job than Ayew or Lowe?

Where has he been scoring goals?

 

[BLAZE]

I agree. I look at our attacking options and I can't see what harm it would do

 

[Swanjaxs]

It wouldn't surprise me if contact has been made with Wilfs representatives about bringing him on board at some point, it also wouldn't surprise me if Wilfs representatives had "priced him out" of a temporary return...

Either way, would be a monumental waste of money, just like the last time

Al Arabi - 5 in 7
Ittihad FC - 5 in 10

Top PL goalscorer in a calender year. Played (and scored) in a World Cup. He was better than a lot of other forwards out there in his prime.

I'd tend to say no too though. Sadly. Much as I'd like to think otherwise.

 

[Swansea93]

Maybe we’ll go and offering him something now Morris has gone, but I can’t see Cooper doing it myself, he wouldn’t even let him Bony train with us to stay fit.

World Class?

That is a question for another debate... what is world class?

During his 2 seasons with us he was one of the best in the Premier League and doing it in the Europa League and the International Stage too...

In my eyes... that’s world class.

He never really relied on pace... so even if he’s slowed down. A fit Bony should be more than good enough in the championship.
