Edin Dzeko

[Blu KB]

He has nott had a run in the side for a very long time now, looked more potent than Balo did today.


Realise he might not fit into our side as well as other players but he is a quality striker.

I suppose he was another "Marwood signing".

I thought he played well tbh. He's not an impact sub, he's a player who buries chances over 90 mins (look at what he did a year ago, before he was, ahem, rested).

I HATE when folk use the 'he shouldn't have been rested' card as a reason of why the man is an overall poor footballer (good finisher mind!).

Mancini rested him after the Spurs game to focus on the Napoli game in which he was atrocious, then played him consistently after that until he took a huff in Munich! It's his own fault he didn't get game time after that because Bobby seemed to trust him as our main striker up until then!

 

[bert's broken neck]

It was a pity his best chances came to him on his left foot - he's much more effective with his right one!

Was starting to nickname him "the Equaliser" (Edin Woodwork more like!) until Carlos stole his thunder today. Shame he didn't sick it away at the end though four straight 3-2 victories and it would have been a sweet way (thanks again, Wooney) to start the new season.

For what it's worth, I would start with Edin vs QPR (Balo on the bench).

Maybe he could repeat last year's four-timer at WHL?.

Mate-don't even bother.Some people will back Edin until he is sold,no matter how cack he is. I think he is a poor footballer (not allowed to say shite now) and is not what we need.

Nailed it!

I would say the people who are saying hes good are the people who have never played football at any level so they just say hes good coz hes a City player! Tbf he has got a decent scoring record but he got 17 all last season and 4 came in 1 game he really isnt good enough! Mancini obviously agrees thats why he never starts all the pundits agree he isnt anywhere near good enough its just some City fans that deny it he will be gone soon enough anyway

This coming from someone who says replace Dzeko with sinclair..

I presume that you too have never played football at any level..

Scott sinclair is a winger..Edin Dzeko is a striker..

just to put you straight. ;)

You havnt put anybody straight smart arse i said replace him with somebody that suits our style of play not with a different striker! Sinclair would fit into our team perfect and just to put you straight he can play as a striker and has done many times for Swansea! Also yes i have played football and at a high level i will also add! Football isnt just oh hes a striker get a new striker oh hes a defender get a new defender you have to look at the formations and tactics of the manager and with Aguero and Tevez being at out club Dzeko doesn't fit into the team or the style of play our other strikers use where as Sinclair will! Probably also the reason why Dzeko is being linked with an exit and Mancini is persuing Sinclair!

I think he's a quality striker too - scored us some vital goals last season. He has good days and bad matches like most do.

are you clueless ??..you do not get rid of a striker and get in a winger..its like for like..we have sold johnson to get sinclair deal has been done..we have not sold Dzeko cos we have valued him at 27 mill..and as of yet have no takers..but if he goes..it will be another striker we get in.

If that makes me a smartarse then 99.9% of this forum are smartarses ..

see ya 0.1%

Oh my goodness! I said get Dzeko out and Sinclair in as i would rather see Sinclair come of the bench over Dzeko and coz he fits our style of play!! We have our strikers and as i said Scott Sinclair can play as a striker! What a guy! We dont even use wingers thats why Johnson has been sold! We use attacking full backs! I also didn't say Sinclair is being signed to replace Dzeko

Had he been on the pitch when Carlos knocked that ball across he would have scored because he, unlike poster boy Mario, would have made the run in. It's alright saying he doesn't play our way, but when we play to his strengths he's quality. Without his header against QPR we would NOT be champions.

 

[bluemoonste]

If Edin had buried that chance late on this thread wouldn't exist !! Inches away from hero to villain !!

 

[herrock]

I cannot believe how people are prepared to slag off one of our own players who played a major part in our greatest moment to win the league.
