Edin Dzeko (continued)

Pelle bugged him up in his post-match comments, and not just for his goals...FOR HIS WORK RATE AND DEFENSIVE EFFORTS!

Played like a "complete striker" tonight, for the first time in a long time. Occasionally found himself walking, then realized he had someone or space to cover and got on his bike. Excellent all around performance from a striker who, by minute 56, had scored twice but STILL kept working.

Well done, Edin! If we could get a decent first touch off you 90% of the time, you would be hero worshipped. Oh, and no more 40 yard cross field "passes" through the center circle when the midfield is attacking, please! You did well to recover and defend, but it knackers out the lads in our very attacking midfield covering 10-12K every game! Cheers!
 
I'm one of the first to give Dzeko some abuse when he puts in one of his poor performances so it's only fair that I praise him for his good performance tonight. He took his goals well and he gave Ferdinand a hard time by actually using his size and strength to challenge for headers etc. Very good display.
 
If you followed him in national team matches you would see the same thing. He is capable of destroying Belgium, France, Greece and countless other nations during qualifying with ease and then for no reason would turn into the worst player on the pitch a week later against much weaker competition. He's an enigma for sure but one thing is certain, when you need him to come up big (QPR, UTD) with everything on the line he will not disappoint.<br /><br />-- Tue Mar 25, 2014 8:30 pm --<br /><br />

That 2nd goal was a really great touch.
Great movement to lose his marker
 
He seems to of turned a corner, he's put in quite a few poor performances since new year but the majority of the time now he realises he has to work hard for the team, you can't just mope around and pick up a goal late on and expect to take the plaudits.

I'm not entirely against a new contract at this point, he's got a 10 game audition coming up and he's going into it on the back of 2 really good performances. Good news for Bosnia at the WC too.

This is what I think he was always capable of. I know I've had disagreements with people on this thread, and honestly over time I think all of you mofos had some good points. No hard feelings, I just want to see this team do well. Aguero is world class, and Beast is freaking awesome. But Edin brings something different to the table and I love watching him play as awkward as he looks.

Love to all the Dzeko detractors I've butted heads with! <3


Someone hacked your account, didn't they? ;)
 
Some say he's our "3rd choice striker", which I tend to disagree.

In terms of current form, he's a much better option than Negredo. I find that both him and Negredo have the same level of inconsistency, but Dzeko has a greater knack for scoring, which is much more important.
 
Anyone who chooses to call him shit,gash,whatever,is just a CLUELESS FUCKIN IDIOT.He's clearly no Sergio but nor are 9/10th of the worlds forwards.
He is far from shit !

One of his biggest fans here and I have supported him all the way through this thread.

"Told you so".

Its not as easy as told you so mate, all we want for him is to put in a shift, he did that tonight and was fantastic,what a player he would be if he did it every time or at least on a regular basis,he is more than capable of top scoring in this league.
