Edin Dzeko (contract update page 370)

Re: Edin Dzeko legend

That will not happen because as i see it Mancini is scared Tevez will rebel again if he is not a starter, on other side Dzeko is nice guy who will not say a thing.

Completely disagree, Dzeko has been out in the media for the past month saying he's ot happy on the bench, don't call him super sub and that he wants to start games.

Aguero is Mancini's favourite it appears, despite been the least clinical. I'd like to see Tevez and Dzeko given a run.

I'm glad someone highlighted this. Dzeko is giving the press too much copy in his interviews. He should be tripping out the bullshit line of 'it's all for the team', instead he's adding fuel to the fire. Someone needs to have a word in his shell like.

IMO he's doing the only thing he can. Mancini doesn't entirely believe in him so he has to pressure him somehow. Now he has good arguments to do that and he's using them. I'd do the same thing and if you were Dzeko, I doubt that you would to sth else...

Re: Edin Dzeko legend

When he is having such a good impact coming off the bench and it benefits the team why is there people that want to change that?

His impact on the rare occasion he starts hasn't been anywhere near as effective.

If it ain't broke don't fix it and all that malarky.

Dzeko's just going to have to suck it up and accept that team comes first and as his role as super sub is benefitting the team, that is his best role, for now.

Re: Edin Dzeko legend

I posted these on page 76:



Some are still choosing to ignore this fact but we shan't. We know the guy can score goals when starting. He did it at Wolfsburg, he does it for Bosnia, so why not City. My belief is that we need to create more options for him. Mancini is trying to do that with the 3-5-2 but it leaves us defensively vulnerable at the moment. Kolarov and Maicon work well, as I'm sure Micah would if employed as a wing-back. He seems uncomfortable with the right-side of the three, as does Clichy on the left. The right-side appears to have been solved by Zaba but there's still the Clichy problem. He was deservedly MoM against Spurs but he's had problems there when we've used it before. Maybe training has paid its dues. I think Mancini is trying to do it on the cheap a bit, which is fine but I'm sure Dzeko would thrive on some wingers. The other thing I think we're lacking is a deep-lying playmaker who plays as one. Yaya can do the job there, and that's one of the reasons I was so positive about signing him at the time, but indeed, he's been far more useful in a more advanced position. He played some fantastic balls from deep against Spurs though, it's in him, but a permanent deep-lying playmaker would be a move forward for us I reckon. I was hopeful Garcia might be a improvement in this respect but so far, not so good.

its hard work trying to get through to some of bluemoons bellends but best of luck in your efforts

Some of those 'bellends' have proven that 'stats' have not been good to all our strikers, who play from the start. All it has shown is that with LESS playing time, Dzeko has proven to be worth 9 POINTS towards the defence of the title.

What these 'stats' have also proven is that Dzeko may as well start as we don't seem to score and hold the lead when he's on the bench! In fact, as you know, we concede and bring him on to force the win. Logic dictates to allow him a run of starts as this would change very little in the game.

I would even say that it is probably better that Tévez comes off the bench to harry a tiring defence to as much effect as Dzeko.

You can skew 'stats' to whatever the agenda you wish to pursue.

if you care to luck i think you will find i`ve defended dzeko and still am. who ever plays we seem to struggle to score early on in the game only as teams tire and defenses get stretched do we get more scoring chances

He should not, nor should anyone at the club be using the media to fight battles that should be kept inhouse.

Btw you don't know me so why would you doubt I would do something?

1. He doesn't like it and he will never accept that role! How difficult is to understand that?

2. It has to be fixed because City underperformed for the most part of the season. Citiy still unbeaten? Yes, but Dzeko and Hart deserve a credit for that more than anyone else atm.

3. Yes, he RARELY starts so we really don't know how he would look like if Mancini gave him a proper run of games. Furthermore, he had this bad luck to start in games where THE WHOLE TEAM sucked. He can't be effective if he gets no service at all.

Re: Edin Dzeko legend

ive been advocating this but some people just want to keep there heads in the sand about this subject its Kun/tevez start no matter what happens.

He has been given plenty of chances starting games since he has been here, and more often than not has put in a stinker.
Before you get all uppity, the team is just not set up for Dzeko and will not be. So he needs to adapt to the way the rest of the team plays.
Let me say once again, i think he is a top striker but in the team we have, he needs to do much more if he wants a starting spot.
I know you will not like my point of view, but that is my opinion.

Well that sounds pathetic if u ask me why spend the money on micon. So your basically want to play that tippy tappy shit that has been doing us wonders this season with our on fire strikers (tevez/kun) lets stay one dimensional and predictable. How much fukin more do u want him to do hes litterly saved our asses time and time again. so by the standards your setting he needs to cure cancer while bagging hatricks week in and week out to get a lookin at the starting 11?

You see this is the problem with you "fanboys", i said he is a top striker but not in the team we have set up to start.
Tevez and Kun work their arse's off for as long as the game goes, tiring out the defenders, on comes your "golden (can do no wrong) boy" and scores (very well i must say) but he is not good for a full 90 minutes.
Just admit that he is limited in the team we have, but is excellent in the way he is being used.
All good for city fans, but a bit of a letdown for his fan club. It's not all about Dzeko you know, and dzeko even knows that. Unlike Balotelli.

it would piss most people off to be the top scorer at a club despite getting bit parts in games,

whether you agree that he should play from the start or not, the fact is at present our top goal scorer is currently 4th choice.

i therefore dont think its unreasonable for dzeko to be pissed off

Yes i like dzeko but im stating facts and how i see it if he fuks up his run of games (if he ever gets it ) then i agree bench him and use him as a sub.

1. I don't expect him to like it. I do understand that, what gives you the impression I don't? I am a City fan, I want what's best for the team, not an individual player.

2. I'm not denying that Dzeko deserves credit, of course he does.

3. He does get service, how would he have scored the goals he has otherwise?
