I should have faced Arsenal, claims Wilfried Bony

Wilfried Bony believes he should have started for Manchester City in their defeat at Barclays Premier League title rivals Arsenal on Monday.

The Ivory Coast striker had scored three in four games while City’s talismanic forward Sergio Aguero was missing with a heel injury.

But Aguero was declared fit ahead of the clash at the Emirates Stadium and came straight into a side that was then beaten 2-1 by the Gunners.
