Because Laudrup wasn't playing him. If it's one thing Monk deserves credit for, it's that he got the best out of Bony. We have a problem in buying piss poor strikers.
Sunderland have been joined by Swansea City and West Bromwich Albion in pursuit of Lorient striker Benjamin Moukandjo, according to the Daily Mail.
Lol, but every team is in the same situation, some players just don't work no matter how much or little money is spent bringing them in, just ask Newcastle last season who spent over £80m, or Brendan at Liverpool with their I think £250m he spent there
I also think that some have not been given a proper chance to work out (Eder, Tabanou) whilst others eg Gomis should have been loaned out in January
And after the first 4 games till Curtis was put in charge , what did you see besides Ayew abandoning the wing and scoring a few goals .......not much ......from anyone .Our problem these days if we couldn't recognize a successful striker if we ran into it .... At any price .
We wont buy any decent striker and that is why we will struggle again this season and i hope this time we get relegated..we don't deserve to call ourselves a premiership club when we don't try to improve our forward line.....Its a joke that will come to haunt us and i don't care if we have the best outfield players because without a really good striker we are going nowhere but down....
