Don't think I mentioned dzeko by name I was just making a general comment but thanks for the mature contribution yet again.balkanno said:So you´re saying Dzeko is not a good Player?
Once Again,
Dzeko is struggling but that doesnt hide the fact neither passed to him all night.simon23 said:so the new guy that lots of people were pinning their hopes on is struggling...so we blame other players!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
couldnt it be that Dzeko is just not upto speed yet, or that he will struggle for a while to adapt to the premiership......
tev and silva are our spark upfront...its upto dzeko to learn to play off them as well as them learning to play with him

bluenova said:Thought I'd check this out as it sounded like one of those "facts" that turns out to be rubbish, but...
Silva - 42 successful passes - 2 to Dzeko
Tevez - 33 successful passes - 0 to Dzeko
Dzeko - 17 successful passes - 4 to Tevez, 3 to Silva
So, nearly half of Dzeko's passes went to Silva and Tevez.
3% of Silva/Tevez passes went to Dzeko (which partly explains why he had less touches).
It's off the Guardian Chalkboards and none of these stats things are totally accurate, but it's undeniably a pattern.
It's also worse than the previous games, so could be an anomaly, could be down to Brum's game plan (Dzeko being the only one of the front 3 it's possible to mark!), or something that needs working on.
