After that purple patch season with us in the Championship where he scored 11 goals, he played 34 for QPR and scored just 3.
On loan at Ipswich, following a good early spell, there were soundings that QPR might recall him. Macauley said publically that he didn't want to go back. I can't imagine his parent club were too impressed with that.
What followed was an incredible barren spell where he scored just once in 29 games. Not for lack of chances, Bonne is 2nd in the league for Big Chances Missed. A Twitter poll said 85% of Ipswich fans did not want to sign him permanently.
Likely another League One loan on the cards for next season?
I wouldn't go that far - we make everyone look good - but I was impressed with his movement and link up play. His all round game had improved since he left us
Superb a stretch, was teferring to how good we made him look when knowing he's shit. Definitely looked better than anything we had on the pitch. He's absolute garbage, and still offered more than anyone in a Charlton shirt

He's not garbage. QPR overpaid for him, but you don't score 11 goals in the Championship without having a bit of ability. That's more than Stockley has managed at that level
He was decent enough today, if not superb. One thing is for sure is that he looked far better than the two clowns that we had up front.
But we know he’s at a similar level to our strikers. We got a very good deal for him. It’s a great example of poor recruitment by QPR.
I agree that we got a good deal for him. Strikers always come at a premium and QPR gambled and lost. I'd still rather have Bonne than either Stockley or Washington.
I don't even really like Stockley & Washington but they are clearly above Bonne.
Stockley definitely, but Washington is debatable. Bonne has played and scored at a higher level.
Played in the right formation, with the right players behind him, to feed him, Washington is the batter player IMO - he makes very intelligent runs off the ball to lose his markers, holds the ball up well, technically, a good player at this level
I will however concede that his chance conversion rate is poor, especially 1 on 1 with a keeper - my Boss is a QPR season ticket holder, and advises that his lack of goals was the limitation on remaining a Championship player
For me Stockley is going backwards - he seems to have forgotten how to jump when challenging for the ball in midfield / final ball when jumping to do a flick on - his goal last home game of season, was a great goal running in and rising above the defender, but link up play is poor of late
Both are, however, better than Bonne (albeit for those of us there yesterday, I realise that is a challenging opinion)
So yeah apart from Norway its debatable in terms of the Championship quality, the first two alone were only friendlies
Yeah there is some awful international football, Ali Daei's record has only recently been beaten by Ronaldo. Your point was of course correct thouh, Washington has played and scored a few in the Champ.

Not having that. He has one of the worst first touches I have ever seen.
Ipswich were head and shoulders above us yesterday. By a mile. Their most forward starting player was Bonne. He didn't score. He was not that good and I would not have him back ahead.of Stockley, Washington or Aneke.

His last touch is not too good either, normally straight at the keeper.

Did he?
I'd still rather have Bonne than either Stockley or Washington.
Washington was only behind him by 1 goal, having played 7 less games and started the season on the wing.
Sandgaard did well to get £2million for a striker who isn't Championship level and is now struggling for goals in league one.
Chris Gunter is Wales most-capped international ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Washington has 13-goals | Bonne has 14-goals
Washington also has six International goals so could argue thats a higher level that the Championship.
So yeah apart from Norway its debatable in terms of the Championship quality, the first two alone were only friendlies
Bonne linked with a £1m move to Sheff Wed.
I wonder where they picked that old trick up from....😉🙂
