We are that good.

I have often pondered how for a while we let Edin go and brought Bony in as a replacement...........

Because Edin wanted to leave to be a true first team player, it isn't that complicated really is it ?

Now you can ponder all day long how somebody thought Bony was a replacement for Dzeko, a very expensive mistake.
 
Dzeko. The world class striker we bought despite having no wingers to cross to him.

We never played to his strengths, and we really should have.

He'd be a murderer in this Pep team with Sane/Walker etc.

2 goals against Chelsea and the second assisted by Aleks, who also scored.

Happy to see them doing well. Nothing but respect for those two and what they helped the club accomplish.

From me too.

I was delighted to see the two of them score last night and Edin's first was a fantastic strike.
 
Dzeko's always been an immense talent, particularly when he's been able to get a run of games under his belt (1st half of 2011/12 + 2nd half of 2013/14). But when it came down to it Aguero was always going to be first choice, which meant Dzeko was either rotated a load or simply benched.

I really doubt the idea that he was ever surplus, it's more that he was too good to feature as relatively infrequently as he did. So when he had a chance to move on he took it, and it's worked out great for him.

It's nothing like the De Bruyne at Chelsea mistake; in fact it's far more comparable with Toure at Barcelona. He was never not good enough for them but Busquets was always getting picked first when it mattered. So we ended getting him.
 
I do miss him at city. With him our attack would be perfect right now with a forward that offers aerial threat.

It wasnt easy for him at city with aguero and tevez ahead of him. 2 worldclass forwards. Ecen then his record at city wasnt bad at all. If i am not wrong his minutes per goal ratio is in the top 6 or 7. It was 125 or 135m or something like that.

Anyhow Good luck to him. Good to see him doing well in Roma
 
A good lad and I wish him all the best. Would never have been played by Pep though, not technically gifted enough.

“You are not dead” by Edin Dzeko. Very nice read. I don’t only like Dzeko the player, but I also respect and appreciate him as a human being as well.

Good read, always liked Dzeko, seemed like a nice guy and never understood the hate he used to get, scored some great goals and needed a few games to get going when he had some time out. Still remember his first goal against Notts County in 2011. Fucking peach.

Saved our bacon that day and on many others.
 
A goal of his that always sticks in my mind for some reason was a header against, I think, Wigan where it was 0-0 for so fucking long and we were all waiting for the sucker punch when he lept like a salmon and nodded it in and won us the game.
 
One of his haul v Tottenham - the one from outside the box which prompted a ‘whoah’ face from the debut-making Nasri.

Dzeko was great for us. Never ever understood how he got stick whilst at the same time the absolute waster that was Balotelli got lauded. I guess he just didn’t have the face that fits. Maybe should’ve set some fireworks off in his house, visited a prison or something ‘wacky’.
 
Kolorov has got one as well. https://www.theplayerstribune.com/g...larov-serbia-the-nights-the-earth-would-shake

“I consider my time as a Citizen as one of the most beautiful periods of my life. Two Premier League titles, one FA Cup, two League Cups — I won’t forget those. And, of course, there was the best moment.

Everyone remembers where they were when they heard …

“Agüeroooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”

We’ll always have that.

Honestly, I still consider City my club. A few months ago, when City were close to the title, Edin Džeko and I were watching the Manchester United-West Brom game on our team bus on the way to our match. United lost, which is funny because West Brom were last in the table. And Manchester was blue, again. It was a nice moment for us. I will remember those fans forever, and the club holds a special place in my heart. “
