No I'm not. Going to City is a stupid move for him - he's away for the next month at the cup of nations, and by the time he returns Aguero will be fully fit and banging goals in, leaving Bony to argue with Dzeko over who has to sit next to Lescott for the rest of the season.
Sure he will get a run out in cup games, and the occasional start in the league - but hardly amazing for his career trajectory is it? He's 26 and if he had gone somewhere like Liverpool, Spurs or Arsenal and banged in 30 goals a season for 2 years he could have earned himself a mega move to a big team where he would be top dog instead of just another bit part player.
Also - from a purely selfish point of view, I love watching him play - he's like a more technical version of Costa. That mix of technique and cruiser weight physicality is awesome, he's a machine.
