Player thread : Edin Dzeko (2014/15)

Re: Edin Dzeko (continued)

It never ceases to amaze me the level of negativity aimed at Dzeko on this forum, although there's a lot of this in general on here at the best of times.

The bottom line is he scores goals, and important ones.

On & off the pitch he's a lot more than many people give him credit for.
 
Re: Edin Dzeko (continued)

I have to say anyone who doubts what Edin has done in a blue shirt, or what he is capable of, needs their head examining. His goal against QPR was equally as vital as Aguero's and yesterday kind of reminded me of that day. Yes, he makes some huge slip ups and he has off days, but he makes up for that with truly vital goals and I do not, nor ever have, doubted him. No-one who calls themself a City fan should ever verbally berate any of our players. Edin has been on the receiving end far too often. Any of you who were at Real Madrid will remember the magic goal he scored, or at the Swamp last month inside a minute, or Palace last week to fire us all up. No, he is not Aguero - but he is equal to Aguero in his own right. I have said it every season and I will say it again, like him or not, Edin Dzeko has and WILL score some of the most important goals in our club's history. Let's show our full support for the lad in these last two games - let's GET BEHIND EDIN DZEKO.

David Platt said it best when he called the goals he scores as 'heavy'.

Much like his first touch some might say.

I thank you for this. The best post I have ever read on this thread.
 
Re: Edin Dzeko (continued)

I have no problem with Dzeko, the man gets goals and that can't be argued with. What frustrates me about Edin, is the number of chances created before he puts one away. The position he found himself in for his second goal; if he took that position up more often then his tally would rocket. We have a tendency to fizz the ball across the goal, our strikers need to get in there.
 
Re: Edin Dzeko (continued)

Quite like Dzeko, would have loved him at Spurs. I don't see him as much as City fans but he seems to get a lot of negativity on here, but he seems to score important goals.

In the title winning season I'm pretty sure he hit a very important late goal against Blackburn (correct me if I'm wrong) and the 2-2 in the last game was important.

He's noway as good as Tevez or an Aguero (a different gravy) but I'd rather have him than a Balotelli or Negredo. I bet he could score consistently 18-24 goals a season if used more often. It doesn't help when you have powerhouse strikers and favourites so he will never get the attention he deserves
 
Re: Edin Dzeko (continued)

The problem is when you have too many players like Dzeko who have poor touches and lack any real footballing brain and composure the game becomes harder,keeping possession becomes harder, this is what i think happened yesterday and in the game v Palace.

Kolarov,Millner, Dzeko are all very poor with the ball. They should never be all on the pitch together.
