Raheem Sterling has hailed Wilfried Bony following Manchester City's 5-1 victory over Bournemouth.

Sterling was certainly the star of the show in the thumping of the Cherries with a hat-trick but Bony marked just his third start of the season by playing a key role in the victory by scoring twice.

Sterling has now acknowledged Bony's part in City's victory and hailed the Ivorian's performance as 'unbelievable'.

The winger said: "The movement up front and the passing from midfield has been really good in the last few games and we've been playing some good, free-flowing stuff.

"I thought Wilf was unbelievable.

"He brought people into the game and scored goals when he needed to. That was a credit to him."
