Dzeko definitely won the German Player of the Year in 2008/09.

He won the Bosnian player of the year twice.

2008 was Ribery
2009 was Grafite

Perhaps noise is confusing Bosnian Player of the Year with the Bundesliga equivalent.

Many sources are quoting him winning it in 2008/9 including

Players player of the year is a different award altogether.

Kompany won the Premier League's player of the year in 2011/12 but RVP won the PFA player of the year that season as well.

He won the players player of the year once, not Bundesliga player of the year twice. Bit of a difference to be fair.
 
As usual, the most hilarious and depressing thread on the site.

To begin with, Negredo has been extremely good and nothing can be said against him starting games.

However, to think that Dzeko's record this season warrants the unbelievable abuse and deadpan derision from the fans of his own team just boggles the mind. Particularly with regard to the hysterical fear against Dzeko playing in the league.

Let's recap his league form (which seems oddly thin on minutes given the actual production):

Game 1: two assists, arguably MOM against Arsenal.
Game 2: scored a goal, taken out after 67 mins.
Game 3: played one half, no goal/assist.
Game 4: did not feature.
Game 5: played 16 mins.
Game 6: scored, played 74 minutes.
Game 7: did not feature.
Game 8: did not feature.
Game 9: did not feature.
Game 10: scored, played one half.


How horrible.

Minutes per goal:
AGUERO: 84 (unbelievable)
DZEKO: 112 (very good)
NEGREDO: 135 (very good)
 
What an excellent post byronic. I find the abuse directed at Edin very sad when you consider what he has achieved for us, turning the game against QPR to win us the league, I mean it's not like we win the league every year. Admittedly Negredo and Aguerro are playing superb but that only serves to increase the digs at Dzeko. I've been watching City for over 50 years and sadly have witnessed other blues suffer very similar abuse such as -

Joe Corrigan
Tony Towers
Ian Bowyer
Colin Barratt
Paul Power
even Shaun Goater in his early days

Mind you several of them left us to go on to better things with several winning the European Cup.

I'd say your "win the league" posts start the cycle of this thread over again each time.

Internet hooligans mate. Luckily Dzeko's recieving more than enough support from the stands.

I just wonder what will happen today if Aguero&Negredo could not score till 75 min.

I could have swore it was twice. I stand corrected. He won it once, has the all time record for highest scoring duo, and is a ballon d'or shortlister. No surprise Klopp fancies him
