When it comes to holding up the ball/shielding and air duels/kick outs - one could argue Dzeko is better in that respect than any other of our three forwards (reserving judgement on RVP, didnt watch many of his games last year) especially since Aguero and Tevez are fucking midgets. Just have a go at cricket or something...
Didn't you catch the numerous amount of times that he couldn't even trap a bag of cement or does your obsession with his player blind you from such flaws in his game?
Every player (Messi included) has flaws to his game. How about Mario's passing? How about Aguero's aerial ability? They are just as average as Dzeko's first touch.
So what? They are great in other aspects of the game. The problem is you and alikes purposely fail to see good sides of his game.
That's very specific to Dzeko on this board actually - his shortcomings are highlighted, his skills are simply overseen.
When ball bounces off him on occassion - hell breaks loose. When he does something great, which he does just as often - reaction is "meh".
If in each game he has equal amount of poor touches and great plays - he will be scapegoated on the Matchday thread. Was a trend last year, and will be again.
And I dont have a blind obsession with him, I just appreciate him as a player much more than you do, obviously.
And considering his role in winning the title last year-you are the one who should reconsider your unreasonable attitude towards the kid.
