Wilfried Bony : It’s a Big Honour To Be Here

“It’s a great feeling for me, it’s a big honour to be here and it’s a great challenge.“
“As a player it’s always good to be part of one of the biggest clubs in the world and it’s a good opportunity for me to be in that situation now – I’m really proud.“

“I felt excited to wait for this moment and now it’s come, it’s fantastic.“

“I think it’s a great decision for me - Manchester City is in the Champions League.  You remember at the end of last season I said that if I want to move it will be to a team in the competition because it’s a great tournament that I really want to play in and one that I want to win.“

“It’s a motivation for me to give my maximum to be in that place. City is a big club with great players with a lot of experience; I believe we can do it.”

“The Premier League is a tough league – my power is to always be in the box and in the right position. I’m always working hard to be there to score the goals and to improve.

“I speak with Yaya every day on international duty and I think he will help me to become a better player and a more clinical striker. I’ll be playing with great players here at City and this is an opportunity for me to work hard and to take my chance.”

Garry Monk : About Gomis & Bony Comparison

"I've got 100% faith in Bafe and I think you saw from his performance, he was pushing the team and trying to get his goals," said Monk.
"Gomis offered more mobility and more movement than Bony" he added.

"Bony uses his strength to his advantage and is a different type of striker, and I think the more game time for Bafe he gets, the more used the team will get when we're playing him."

"The players around him are trying to find his runs and supply from there. I thought he deserved that goal and, like I said, he's a top striker," added Monk.

Team-mate Neil Taylor about Gomis

"We're really happy for him. He's scored good goals at Tranmere and he looked sharp there so he's coming into form," said Taylor.
"We're hoping he gets confidence from this because we're going to need him. He's definitely a good player and hopefully people get to see him now."

"Wilf's [Bony] a difficult act to follow, but when he moves on he's earned it and that shows that if you do well here you can get that move and Bafe will probably look at that the same way."
