Edin Dzeko (contract update page 370)

Re: Edin Dzeko legend

I agree with the general sentiment, he was the best out of the three up front and then got subbed off. I get the idea of keeping Silva on (being the only true creative midfielder we had to offer) but he was woeful and I can't remember him ever giving the ball away so much.

I just don't understand the reasoning behind the sub.

I didn't get it either.

However, things would have been different if Silva pushed the ball to whomever was in the better position to score - rather than to Aguero no matter where Dzeko is.

I have a feeling that if Dzeko was on the goal line itself and Aguero was outside of the box, Silva would still pass to Aguero.
 
Re: Edin Dzeko legend

No, he's far from legend.
If city wins a couple of titles in the next 2-3 years, then every single player of our last year's squad may become one :) The new ones have still to prove them worthy.

But in current form, if given enough time on the pitch, I'm sure he would build on that status. The equilizer against QPR made a good base for it. And this year will be very important, as Roberto would say it. I'm one of Edin's biggest fans,but I would like him to stay with city and prove his quality here.

As I don't have rights to create threats on my own, some thoughts about Bosnian fans discussions here:
Guys, if you still didn't realize it, you're becoming a damn famous football club ;) Be prepared for it that some kind of migration will happen now and then, let' say when you sign a player from some country comparable to Bosnia. They'll come for some reason, many of them will go when that reason is gone, but some of them will stay. And those may become true city fans. Could be of vital importance when we're playing CL.

And I can imagine, it's hard for the British to really understand us and our madness for Dzeko. In your history, you had so many world known personalities, enough to be Idols for generations. And how many Bosnians do you know, beside other players? Edin is really a complete personality one can identify with. Our recent history is rather bloody (don't want to talk about the bloody part of Br. history), and Edin is a light that shines. Our Diamond. It's hard to understand :)

Nice post, kara 54. Hopefully you will be one of those who stay. Be lucky.

Hopefully, Dzeko will be one of those who stay. However, unless Mancio is shown the door, I think there is no chance for Edin at City. Bobby has never forgiven him for Munich last season, and will never give Edin the game time and respect he deserves. Isn't this PAINFULLY obvious?
 
Re: Edin Dzeko legend

I hope the lad gets a spell of games, been great for city. Never doubted his loyalty to the club and shows great patience. The guy is class but not a legend yet
 
Re: Edin Dzeko legend

Definitely on his way to being a legend. Even if the boss only gives him 5 mins he will score.
 
Re: Edin Dzeko legend

Schwarzer didn't even sniff that today. He does score important goals and those are worth the wait and worth their weight.
