Edin Dzeko and RVP compared

[Santiago Street]

As all matchgoing blues know, Edin's sensational strike rate is achieved despite us playing in a way that doesn't now and will never suit him. He's a typical old fashioned goal machine, some might say he's lucky as balls roll into the net off his knee/arse but he's a man with a rare gift - the ability and know how to find space in the box.

RVP's having a good season but let's not forget that most blues, myself included, didn't want to splash £20mill on a 29yr old with a dodgy injury record.

If i were a manager of a massive club and I wanted to bring a top striker in, I'd still buy Dzeko at his age and with his outstanding record in 2 countries than a nearly past his sell by date RVP

i would just love to see what a mourinho/klopp would do with some one like dzeko?

you just know ,its goals,goals and more goals

I would HATE to see Dzeko leave city this summer.

 

[Eds]

Edin needs to stay at City and nobody can persuade me otherwise. We have already lost Balo and Tevez could also disappear in the summer. Sergio is without doubt already one of the best strikers in the world and he is still very young. Edin is a quality striker who will only get better especially when we start playing to his strengths.

ite a well known secret, if he was at the arse or the scum he would rip this league a new one..

just get him a winger , you will see

If he had supply from Bale (or someone similar) on the wing he'd be a 20+ goal per season striker.

To be fair Bale could turn some average strikers like Graham or Holt into 20+ strikers I think.

Yeah well that's a good point.

Statistics can be used to prove anything.

Anything that is true.

 

[CTID1974]

i rate Dzeko and agree with most of the comments on this thread, but, his first touch can be terrible, and sadly in the positions he normally gets the ball, you don't always get a chance to correct that

i agree get a winger and he'll be top scorer in most seasons

 

[vaziooo]

Dzeko with the right setup will score loads.

But RVP has scored against us, chelski, blue and red dippers arsenal tottenham and he is on course to score against every pl club this season. this is something that none of our strikers can do.
