Michael Laudrup praises Wilfried Bony

Michael Laudrup says that Wilfried Bony played his best game for Swansea City in this afternoon's clash with Manchester City.

Swansea City manager Michael Laurup has praised Wilfried Bony's performance in this afternoon's 3-2 loss to Manchester City.

The Ivory Coast international, who arrived at the club for £14m in the summer, scored twice as the Swans went a sixth game without victory, leaving them 13th in the Premier League.

"I think it was by far the best performance from Bony as a Swansea player and that is how we want to see him," the Dane told reporters.

"He showed good movement, he was challenging defenders and if he can do it against Vincent Kompany and Matija Nastasic he can do it against anyone. I think that was very positive."

Bony has notched six league goals this season.
