Re: Dzeko
lol...food for thought isn't it...still it wouldn't guarantee he'd be scoring week in week out...I just used him as an example of a player whose form had been shot to bits...to me he's better than Dzeko yet in the same period he's scored less and really contributed less than dzeko has at city...that change can mess people up...
and i know people will say I'm making excuses for Dzeko but what would his form look like had he not been rested after the spurs match...had he played against wigan and maybe continued his good run...
there are too many variables that have to be taken into account...
truth is his touch has abandoned him, until the last 20 minutes last night he allowed skirtel and agger to push him around, and his form in general is poor but it can change after only one goal...

Dont make it a Torres v Dzeko debate though !!
No I have no intention of making it a Torres v Dzeko thread...just trying to point out that change can be hard even within the league let alone coming from another league to the premiership....Dzeko has made progress, only people following him from the start of his career can tell you that...he will come good again...and as I said earlier it will happen in january, be it utd, 'pool, wigan or his favored spurs
and the question was to what would people be saying if Torres was a city player and in the same situation as Dzeko is now...would you be dwelling on the 50+goals he scored for the red shite or going at his current form (he is off it completely)
Yea,tough one really I dunno,thing is with Torres,he has done it in the prem,so there is no excuse I suppose.....but if he had come to us instead of Chelsea...............mmmmmmmmmmmmm
