Wilfried Bony wants Sergio Aguero partnership

Manchester City striker Wilfried Bony urges head coach Manuel Pellegrini to select him alongside Sergio Aguero in the final third for the rest of the season.

Wilfried Bony has urged Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini to select him alongside fellow striker Sergio Aguero in the team's first XI.

Bony has scored four times in his last seven games for City, but has lost his spot in the team in recent weeks due to the return of Aguero.

Pellegrini's preferred formation only leaves room for one centre-forward, but Bony has claimed that he and Aguero could cause havoc as a pair in the final third.

"Last year we played some games together, this season Sergio got the injury so sometimes we have just one, sometimes we have two strikers," he told Sky Sports News. "It's good, he's a different striker. He's a running, faster striker, where as I'm more in the box keeping the ball. I think we could do that but it depends on the coach."

Man City, who are currently third in the Premier League table, will continue their league campaign with a trip to Watford on Saturday.
