Edin Dzeko (contract update page 370)

Re: Edin Dzeko legend

I like Dzeko, scored some important goals for us... But he's always gonna look awkward and tonight wasnt one of his best nights....

We dont play to his strengths and get enough crosses in the box, so that doesnt help him to be fair...

Re: Edin Dzeko legend

I've seen this "who passed the ball to Sergio for the penalty?!?!?!"

Yet, many posters have discounted Sergio and Tevez's penalties at the weekend.

Even more irony from the fanboys.

Also, that "pass" to Kolarov in the first half, at the edge of the box, set the tone for his performance.

This is the Dzeko thread, so can 'some' people stop bringing other players and their performances into it, just so they can deflect from the topic, which IS Dzeko.

Amen. That is exactly what I saw. That WAS a goal. Yet Dzeko completely miscontrolled/passed/hit/kick it and that was it.

/Sigh

Thank you for your contribution....

ive been saying this for ages if your going to fukin start him play the ball into the fukinn box or dont start him at all. and use him for plan b. there is no point in him playing in the tippy tappy formation. but ofc the dzeko haters totally ignore formations and style of play when it comes to slating him. /flame shield on<br /><br />-- Thu Nov 22, 2012 2:07 am --<br /><br />

Fucking hell he did one pass to Aguero for the pen so he shouldn't be slated.

I have said plenty of times he cannot play the football we start with which involves quick movement, one twos, movement across the front line.

Dzeko is like a fucking scarecrow when he starts.

When he comes off the bench he gives us a direct link and we go for him and that's how he gets goals.

Poor decision from Mancini to start Dzeko over Tevez today.

...i just want him to hold the ball up and lay off an easy pass...my expectations are very low.

The thing is, we do play tippy tappy football. Dzeko scores important goals when he comes on as a sub. He will never be anything more than that at City.

Or you could start with the direct approach when starting him . but what ever

Re: Edin Dzeko legend

I thought he got better as the game progressed and his hold up play became better when we became more attacking as a team. But until he starts putting in good performances from the start of the game, he will always go back to being a substitute. Like I said after a a game a few weeks ago Dzeko is far more effective coming off the bench than Tevez (Tevez did nothing tonight when he came on) and Tevez seems to be a lot better at starting than Dzeko is. So Tevez starting with Dzeko coming off the bench works better for the club.

It is the easy pass thing that gets under my skin. That easy lay off in the first half just about sums him up.

100% agree with this. Also rinse and repeat: Dzeko is benched for next 6 games. But expected to start in a match against the toughest opponent with a brand new formation, the team is not familiar with..
