Feels a little strange seeing people suddenly accepting of Bony at up to £15mil when £4million is absolutely nothing these days and especially in the context of Liverpool's transfer window thus far.
Still, I've kind of come around to Bony as well despite being fiercely against it before. I'd imagine the sheer lack of alternatives is a big part - I was trawling through the various European leagues for any kind of striker and there really is literally no one.
A handful of established but journeymen strikers in the French and German leagues, youngsters who aren't good enough relative to Borini to bother, and gambles on injured players like Rossi and Benteke.
The only option who really seemed like a better option then Bony was Seydou Doumbia - whatever happened to the rumours surrounding him? I presume there must be some age related shenanigans for no one to have made a move for him yet.
