Ole Gunnar Solskjaer: 'Wilfried Bony will be main threat'

Cardiff City manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer identifies Swansea City striker Wilfried Bony as one of the main threats for the Bluebirds in this evening's South Wales derby.

Cardiff City manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has identified Swansea City striker Wilfried Bony as one of the main threats for the Bluebirds in today's South Wales derby.

The Ivorian has scored 16 goals in 32 games this season for the Swans, and the ex-Manchester United player believes that Bony's ability to score "from anywhere on the pitch" could prove dangerous.

"He's a threat, he's a goal scorer, a good link-up player," Solskjaer told BBC Sport. "When [Bony] turns he can shoot from anywhere on the pitch, right foot, left foot. We've seen proof of that quite a few times. [Swansea] look to use him in the build-up play. He's got natural goal-scoring talent."

Cardiff City would complete the first ever derby league double over their South Wales rivals if they win at the Liberty Stadium this evening.
