Thankyou.

I found that quite disturbing as well, and I've seen plenty.

Maybe Dzeko is the answer for those wanting to replace Lescott.

His biggest problem has always been an inconsistent and at times really poor first touch. Against Everton Silva played a 40 yard ball with pace from the half way line and Aguerro, surrounded by 2 defenders plucked the ball out the air as if it was the easiest thing in the world to do.
A lot of Aguerro's chances and goals have come from instant control from his first touch, Dzeko often needs 2/3 touches to set himself up and that can be the difference between a good striker and a great one. Dzeko's first touch isn't always terrible and at times it's quite good but far too often the ball simply bounces back off him and the move breaks down.

I think you forgot to mention the massive caveat "...when he needs to control the ball". I'd love to see some statistics on how many goals he's scored with his first touch. Aguero is a totally different type of player; I think he rarely scores straight from his first touch. Therefore, comparing the two is only relevant to serve an agenda, and not for objective comparison- a bit like talking about how Dzeko will score more with his head than Aguero.

Theres also plenty of times that I guess people choose to ignore where Dzeko perfectly controls a 40 yard ball on his chest, then pretty effortlessly beats 2/3 players to find the open man. In fact almost every game he's able to muscle around the other defenders and hold the ball up until the rest of our team catches up field. He's great at having a deceptive touch that makes the defender commit and miss the ball from being off balance. And if you say his touch is "deceptive" because it's bad, well you're just a knob.

Times where he has a good touch and can hold off the other team greatly outweigh times when the ball bounces off him. But those who already dislike him only seem to remember the latter scenario.

If only we still had Bellamy or Adebayor...

Just watched some vids of him from a few years ago. Different league but he looked like a different player, confident, cocky, positive, scored some awesome goals, always looking for the ball.

Much different now.

Must be watching a different player. I really don't see the justification for saying he's better than either Adebayor or Bellamy.

i don't even bother reading posts from here anymore, real city fans express their opinion about dzeko during the game; by screaming " "ooo edin dzeko"

I didn't actually think you stand by that brain damaged statement again. wow. Let's bring back Bellamy, Ade, Tevez, Robinho, and Ireland while were at it. Then we'll actually have a chance to win the league.

Do you realize that a fan roots for the current team as well as remembers past teams? Because you seem to be stuck about 2-3 years in the past. I don't even know why I bother replying to an opinion like this from someone who claims to be a City fan.

So because I think Robinho, Tevez and Adebayor are better than Dzeko I'm not a propper City fan? Oh right.

The fact that you'd rather have the city team from a few years ago (when we're top of the league now) just makes you a shit fan to be frank
