He has vastly improved and getting better there's no doubt about that. He is the only good player you have IMO, so he should be for the price paid.

Definitely not shit, but did cost too much. Just shows it takes an experienced player time to settle.

Comes off the bench and scores 2 today.... you can't count all his goals if you are only counting his starts.

Anyway, think the argument has been put to bed now

He's getting better because he is now fit, lost over a stone since he arrived at swansea. And now looks an absolute beast.

If Swansea stay up it will be because of him.

He was carrying some extra timber when he signed, can definitely see a difference in him now.

He's playing well but what will Laudrup do when Michu is fit? The two couldn't play together at the start for the season so will he drop Bony for Michu? Wasn't that the reason Jenkins had a go at Laudrup in the press and they don't speak anymore?

Swansea have looked better without Michu. With Shelvey playing behind but with Laudrup stick with it?

Re: 16 goals in 22 starts

maybe so but still only 7? in premier all others in cup games against mostly inferior sides! (said MOSTLY!!!) :o only trouble is ml doesnt play him and michu in same side unless desperate during game. :roll:

Michu will play as the attacking midfielder in behind Bony, which is his best position and from where he scores the huge majority of his goals.

Shelvey will contest with De Guzman for the centre midfield spot, if they are both fit.

Will Michu and Bony work now? Don't think it worked at the start of the season.

Only time will tell but seeing as neither were fit when they were playing at the beginning of the season, I wouldn't base too much on that.

Fair enough. Just remember that when Michu and Bony were "fit" one of your biggest problem was who to pick and Huw saying Bony when Laudrup picking Michu. Now one is injured the problem has gone and Bony has shone.

This. Who gives a f**k about Bony, he's not ours. Go wank over him on your own board.

How many points has he earned the jacks with his 7 goals?

Then again, who cares?

Re: 16 goals in 22 starts

Bony has taken up to xmas basically to get used to premiership footba, add t that he has been injured a few times.
Michu allso has been carrying a injury and the pairing of both him and boney will take time .
But im sure together they will be class, at the end of the day michu playes behind the striker an a attacking midfielder and only plays up front when we have no other options.

I think the OP was started because Bony has taken some ridicule on here since he joined us.The OP is just giving you all a gentle reminder that he is and was worth paying 12 million for.Him and Michu have struggled with fitness all season.Laudrup obviously saw this and held Wilf back until he thought he was ready.Wish he'd done the same with Michu but that's a different story.If and when we see both play together and Michu in his favoured AM role then I think we'll be alright ;)
