I think a dozen of your players would make a difference when it came to scoring goals. The obvious choice is Aguero. Aguero even with his injury problems would keep a team like Palace up easily.Henkeman said:I suspect he says Dzeko because he may feel he's one player who might make the difference to them as a side enough to keep them up - scoring goals usually being the problem for promoted sides. Still, it wouldn't be the first name that we might expect someone to suggest!

Cannot disagree with much of what he said, but hope we don't just play Chamakh upfront we will need some pace.

I thought about this and came to the conclusion it was a very considered choice. On this thread every week the opposition fan always picks Kun, Merlin, Yaya and occasionally Kompany.
No matter how bad the rest of his team mates were compared to the opposition, if played in every game for a struggling side Edin would score enough goals in the Premiership to keep a side up.
What would lead you to believe that Dzeko would score more goals in a struggling side than Aguero? If as you imply, team mates were poor in this struggilng side, then I'd think a player like Aguero who is more likely to score goals out of nothing or of his own making would be better than a player like Dzeko who basically needs decent service to score goals given that he has the touch of an elephant and hasn't generally got the skill or pace to regularly beat men.ifiwasarichfan said:citytill1die84 said:All the players to choose from and he picks Dzeko haha I like dzeko but he wouldn't be in my top 12/15 players.

Or, what he saw as a realistic option?billfromthehill said:AgreedCarver said:He possibly chose Dzeko because he thought he'd fit into Palace's side better than Aguero with Pulis's tactics.

For sure. I was just trying to think through the logic of what he was saying when it's not a name you'd imagine would come to mind immediately.

My thinking too.
