Unfortunately for all the positives about Dzeko's play he couldn't trap a bag of cement and when I look at our team I am impressed with the way most of our players bring the ball under instant control (note the word most).
We broke the one of the golden rules when we signed Dzeko and that is you don't sign players during the January Transfer Window.
Because we didn't chase him all the way through the summer window that year then?
As much as people want to back track now, I doubt there was a single City supporter that didn't either want Dzeko, or thought he would be the final attacking piece that we needed. We all drooled over his youtube videos, and also through his very impressive champions league performances for Wolfsburg
I can also remember everyone creaming themselves over his debut performance which only lacked a goal after the way he began forming a partnership with Tevez.
His touch may not be the best, but his goal scoring record can't really be in doubt, he has scored some very very important goals for us during his time, and his display at Spurs is one of the best striking performances we could wish to see. Like any striker, he thrives on confidence and the fact that he rotated so often under Mancini obviously affected his form badly
If he ended up staying then I wouldn't be that disappointed, but likewise if he moves on then I would feel about the same, I just can't understand all the negativity to a player that has given us some very very special moments
