Be warned: Dzeko has no/little pace

[Arry is Bent]

I keep hearing people on here saying "he has a turn of pace".

No, no, no, no. He doesn't.

I have spoken to a mate of mine whom supports Hoffenheim and watches him regularly.

He is simply not that type of forward whom plays off the last defender.

Don't start slagging him when he comes because he isn't fast.

He is a target man, a goal poacher and a fantastic finisher NOT a pacy forward.

But surely if he's a poacher and a target man he plays off the last defender? Regardless of pace.

 

[Rammyblues]

From what I have seen and I have to rely purely on the youtube clips I am not surprised. It seem he has the ability to hold the ball up and bring in other players and has a blistering shot, most of which seem to go in the top right hand corner of the net.

Cheers for that useless WARNING!

cheers fergie

We've got enough pace without him. It's not the kind of attribute we're looking for in him, it's his ability in the air and his finishing we're after.

 

[waspish]

the amount of ball we have at home Dzeko is what we need to slam in those goals when we are struggling

A classic fox in a box is what im expecting.

Van Nistelrooy had no pace whatsoever, still managed to finish top scorer god knows how many times! Its whats around them that counts...
