Dzeko (Merged)

Re: Dzeko

In last 2 games City did not produce many clear chances. Except when Dzeko was one on one with Aris keeper. City is not playing well because all they try to do is go through the middle. How many good passes from the midfield in two games did Dzeko or anybody else receive receive? Last 4 goals were all individual efforts. City was lucky to pass Aris.

Was that a team or individual effort? How many chances did we create? There were 3 goals and 0 assistance.

Win or lose, it's a team effort. Every time. No exceptions.

Re: Dzeko

If Kolarov had done the obvious and simply sent in a low cross, odds are 90 to 1 that Džeko would have scored the tap-in goal

Fuck me those are some shit odds

Would not back

sorry mate but that guy is 100% right. The first was a lucky howler by the defender, the second was all down to dzeko. We dont have the players to supply dzeko im afraid, he thrives on crosses and none of our players can seem to cross a ball. The lads a class player, would do great at somewhere like tottenham with pace on the wings such as bale and lennon

Re: Dzeko

Here's a horrible fact from yesterday.

not once all game did Dzeko receive a cross from either wing.

that in itself says everything.

You're incorrect. The second part of that scoreline--the zero--tells you that you're wrong. Dzeko didn't prevent them from scoring. The team did. The match--like all matches--is a team effort.

3rd was lucky Yaya goal. Against Fulham it was Balotelli own effort. So no matter which CF plays it will be difficult to score without proper service.

Re: Dzeko

For those that claim the likes of Benarbia and myself only see Dzeko when out there. You couldnt be more wrong, we see the team. We haven't supported City since January and Dzeko signed like many of those contributing anger and petty insults in this thread. If and when Dzeko leaves us you will all leave with him. I suggest it is those that have decided to support us in the last few weeks that only see Dzeko.

My concern is for the team and he does not fit our system in the premier league. We cant provide him with the ammunition he needs with the injuries we have. Dzeko has many strengths, we are however not currently playing to them. He does not fit into a slow tempo passing game where close control is necessary. We need to stretch the game to get him involved and hit him with crosses. As Freestyler suggested. He received none yesterday. This is not a fault of Edins, but we cannot be adopting a whole new system at this late stage of the season and risk blowing our top four chances. We can however play without him in our system like we have pre January and I really hope we stop trying to shoe horn him into the side whilst the like of Balo and Tevez are fit. Its no coincedence Tevez hasnt even got near the goal in the last couple of games with Dzeko in his position. We played much better when Edin went off yesterday and thats unfortunate for him but until the likes of AJ are fit he is going to really struggle.

I imagine if you were to ask straight up to Bluemoon now, if you could choose only one of Tevez and Dzeko to start 90% would choose Carlos and the other 10% would be those who voted Dzeko player of the month for January.
