Man City boss Pellegrini: Bony must fight for place

Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini says Wilfried Bony must fight for his place.

Bony joined City last month from Swansea City in a £30 million deal.

"Bony is a squad player also, he is not coming here just because we need him urgently," said Pellegrini.

"We will see when he comes back. We will talk then. It is important to have a powerful squad.

"We'll see in the way he works if he starts at the beginning, if he's in the starting line-up."
