There have been thousands of players who have worn the sky blue shirt yet only 40 who have won us the top prize, the First Division title or the Premier League. Dzeko was instrumental in our last one and indeed he was instrumental in turning the game against QPR, we will NEVER have a day like that again, ever. His name with forever be remembered together with the rest of the hero's of May 2012.
I think he deserves a bit more respect than that which we give him. I am a massive Dzeko fan yet I realise that at the moment Aguerro and Negredo are playing brilliantly and he has a fight to get his place back. However, I am not going to start analysing every movement from Dzeko and criticising his every mistake.
He's part of the squad and deserves all our support.
This is really the bottom line. People are fickle. Which is why this thread will never die. The amount of vitriol being flung at Dzeko over the years has been unbelievable. I think he is a great player if played consistently, but we'll never see that at City. He'll play in the World Cup, and I am pretty sure he will look to leave the team for more regular football to prepare for the big competition.
Conversely Negredo is looking to break into Spain's first team, so he's just as motivated to be in the starting XI. This is why I think Dzeko has no other choice but to leave in Jan.
