I'd gladly take bony in the summer, beast of a man
Bony was absolutely incredible in the Eredivisie last season, and has continued that form in the Prem.
Benturkey's a one season wonder that has been found out.
I would have made a cheeky bid for Bony in January just to test the water (even though Swansea would have been mad to let him go).
Apparently though we don't need a striker and that won't change in the summer imo. We have a blind spot in recent times regarding strikers. Takes us years to buy one, so the next one won't be due until 2016 at the earliest.
Ever since we had Berbatov, Keane, Defoe and Bent we seem reluctant to have real depth up front. Although we're quite happy to collect solid but unspectacular midfielders like they're going out of fashion.
Considering the impact and importance to our team of Berbatov and Keane, as well as the success of Man Utd largely built on quality up front I just don't understand it.
