Pure unadulterated delusional fantasy.

Never, going, to, happen.

In January. PMSL.
 
Against who? Who else in the team? Which formation are we using?

Like both players and very much want to keep both.

Hate all the lazy one line judgements on both players some are giving.

I've said it before and i'll say it again. With the right system in place, Edin Dzeko would be a 25 goal a season striker. He'd be in his element playing for a team with gifted wingers. I'm talking about the likes of Bayern Munich, Udinese, Chelsea or - I feel dirty even thinking about this - the rags. I have no doubt that Edin would thrive in such an environment, given that it would allow him to fully utalize his main strengths as a front man. As it is we're only seeing glimpses of what the man can do. He's not made for a team as narrow as our own.

Keeping this in mind, i'd have to go with the unpredictable Balotelli. As fantastic as I feel Dzeko can be, I don't think we'll ever see the best out of him with our tactics and formation. Mario on the other hand is much more suited to Mancini's gameplan. He's still too much of a risk for my liking though, and if rumours of PSG willing to pay forty million for him were true then I would have ripped their hands off. Something tells me it was merely newspaper bullshit, though. I can't imagine Mario wanted to join the French league either way. Mario has the potential to be a true world class talent, sure... but does he have the mentality? Mancini seems to think so. I can only hope he is proved right.

I agree 100%. With Tevez & Aguero Dzeko is never going to get the run of games he needs. He'll get some starts in CC and FA cup games, the occasional start here and there and some late subs. He's never going to be happy with that. To me Mario is best as a sub. Come in for the last 20 mns when everyone is a bit fatigued and he doesn't have long enough to lose his head and get into trouble. He doesn't seem to need the run of games to be successful that Dzeko does and he seems to be OK with not starting every game.

I desperately want them to sign Falcao in January. Then move Dzeko & Balotelli. Maybe keep one in case Tevez changes his mind again. I think we need another CF that we can count on if we are going to win the CL and PL in the coming future. I think we could win one or the other with what we have but not both. I don't think Dzeko and Balotelli can be counted on game in game out. They are just too streaky.

The thing with Balotelli is he can keep his concentration for a lot longer when he wants too...look at the derby at the swamp, or the 2 cup games at Wembley in the semi and final, showed a real maturity in both games, or even for Italy against Germany, if he can produce that every week then he can be a real asset to our club

You want to bet? a year ban?
 
Edin continues his scoring form by nipping one (aready, 50th minute) for Bosnia in 0:5 rout of minnows Liechtenstein.

If he couldn't score against Liechtenstein I would be worried.

True, but you know the "everyone plays football" cliche :-)

Just scored his second - tied for Bosnia's all-time leading scorer now with 23 goals...and he's only 25.
