Then people were moaning how Dzeko looks lanky and doesn't have silky touch. Yet he banged tons of goals for us and indeed, came of the bench to equalise against QPR with a HEADER from a CORNER.
Thing is, and some people really don't get this, if we sold him we would NEED to bring in someone similar. It's easy to just say it on Internet forum but there really aren't that many players available who would provide as many goals as he does from as few minutes.
He is not perfect player by any means but we NEED him imo.
Spot on.
Some fans expect a forward who spends time on the bench and only had one start since Jan 1st to score every time he goes on the pitch even though he gets 15 mins more often than not to do so !
It cannot be easy competing with 3 other top class forwards..only 2 of them at any one time can play ffs.....I think when called upon Dzeko has delivered..especially when it matterered.
Whos to say that we get another replacement in and him and one of the others starts banging them in with Aguero/Tevez on the bench and when one of them is called upon they put in an average to shit performance due to the splinters they gained whilst on the fuckign bench ?? does that mean Aguero/Tevez is shite and we should sell one of them as well?
4 strikers in our team and not all of them will be fucking on fire every time they hit the pitch.
If I remember rightly..Dzeko was on fire and was dropped for no fucking reason whatsoever.
For fucks sake.
