"Moreover, given Tang's physical condition, he cannot play as a center forward, but only as a second striker. In the past season, when we played 4-4-2, this second forward position was played by Milner. His relentless running and fighting spirit, even as a striker, could still help the team defensively. But obviously, Tang can't do that."
"So I think, for the balance of offense and defense, it's better to let Tang continue to play in midfield!"
At this point, Toure paused and then changed the subject: "As for the forward position, I believe Bony should be given more opportunities. His performance against Southampton wasn't good, but that was also his first start of the season. If we abandon Bony because of that, it wouldn't be fair to him! His ability may not compare to Agüero, but compared to the overly immature Iheanacho, Bony should still be given a chance at the center forward position. After all, his goal-scoring efficiency at Swansea wasn't low."
