I reckon he could do a job for us and offer something that Balotelli and Dzeko don't.

seriously hope he gets a chance

That's his biggest asset imo. He certainly has a decent amount of talent but not the natural talent or athleticism of some. But, he is almost manic in his desire to improve. Imo, someone of limited ability can sometimes make themselves into a useful or even a top player just by working on stuff & perfecting aspects of their game. Beckham springs to mind as oppsed to David Bentley, who has more talent but no dedication.
I think most footballers are flawed & lazy in that respect & could be 50% better if they could be arsed working on stuff, but most can't.
Guidetti will try & try to improve, (especially if Mancini or another top manager was to tell him things to work on) & that gives him a chance, either at City or elsewhere.
Just to add; Craig Johnson was an example of a player who got to the top by sheer hard work & practice.

That was a point I made a while back when comparing Messi to (the fake) Ronaldo, if you dropped both of them onto different deserted islands for ten years away from training and football then put them back onto a pitch untrained Messi would still be capable of creating some magic because he was born with it (assuming he had enough stamina to last some time into the game) whereas Ronaldo would have lost it all due to getting to where he is right now through an obsessive desire to train and train and train. In short, mental attitude can make up for a lack of natural talent to a point (Ronaldo and Beckham being two extreme examples).
