ephreak 42 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Corresponds with what Mou has been saying here:Dzeko would not be a bad signing at all. Great player.Seems a little bit like a weird signing don´t you agree? He is 28 years old and also on a huge salary. Mou said several time this season that he is building for future, and I don´t think that Dzeko fits in that vision. With that said, I wouldn´t mind having him here, not at all.

Nike 373 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Corresponds with what Mou has been saying here:Dzeko would not be a bad signing at all. Great player.Dzeko would be a terrible signing. High price, slow and static. I would rather let Lukaku start than sign Dzeko. Have you guys watch City games, how many times Silva feeds the ball to Dzeko and he misses. All of his goals have been like point blank these past few weeks. I highly doubt Mourinho would want Dzeko, since he is anything but hardworking. Dzeko is a forward that needs to be fed to score. At Chelsea, I don't think we feed the strikers all that well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanishBlue 426 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 It would be a great buy, I really like Dzeko, and he deserves better than being third choice for City. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that said, I wouldn´t mind having him here, not at all.I see what you mean but maybe if Lukaku is off then the transfer would make more sense - having an experienced head up front is not a bad thing. He is on big wages though (not exactly sure how much?) but if he comes as you said he would definitely be a good signing, especially if we can grab him for around £20/25m. Even if he comes in as number 1 striker it'd be okay, even for Lukaku's future here - Dzeko, Lukaku and a 3rd choice striker is a massive improvement on our current strikeforce.

sdrcfc 461 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Dzeko would be a great addition to our squad. Not too sure if I'd want him to be our first-choice striker, most likely as a back-up to Costa alongside Lukaku. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've watched City and Dzeko a lot over the past few seasons, even Dzeko at his Wolfsburg days a few times where he was great as well. He isn't simply a striker that needs to be fed... His link & hold up play is very good, strong in the air, can pass it pretty well and has very good movement. Yeah, his finishing *can* be inconsistent sometimes but more often than not his finishing is very good. He isn't simply a poacher as you've described, he's very much a complete CF. 28 goals and 10 assists this season for City speaks for itself.

In the league this season Dzeko scored 5 goals the last 3 games, so prior to his outburst he had 11 goals from 90 shots with 1 assist.... His overall play is better than anyone we have, but he needs to be fed. He's slow and static, unless you think Mourinho would tolerate a player like that (ala mata), I highly doubt Dzeko would be an ideal target for Mourinho.I'm not saying Dzeko is bad, but he wouldn't excel under mourinho/Chelsea.

I'm not saying Dzeko is bad, but he wouldn't excel under mourinho/Chelsea.Yeah, but Dzeko in all competitions this season has 28 goals and 10 assists. Suarez has 31 from 178 shots (17%) this season in the league - only 1% higher than Dzeko's (16%) - do you consider Suarez a bad finisher as well? Mourinho himself said that he thinks Dzeko is Man City's player of the year so whether Mou rates him or not shouldn't be the dispute here. Mourinho doesn't require his STs to close down as much as his AMs either - so the Mata comparison doesn't really matter to me. I think he would actually do pretty well here because he's a big all round striker - Mou has had great success with these type of strikers (Milito, Drogba) in his systems. He isn't the best striker in the world but he's definitely a top striker, and would definitely be one of the better ones available. If the club doesn't want to spend £32m on Costa then Dzeko is definitely a good alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando 6,743 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I don't see where the whole Dzeko to Chelsea is coming. Just cause mourinho praise him doesn't mean anything. For me a team like city would not do business with a team like Chelsea and vice versa. Sturridge being the exception but that was because he was a raw talent back then.

LAM09 7,100 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Anyone else witness Kovacic ripping it up with three assists today (only player to do so this Serie A season) vs. Lazio. My word, this kid would actually be a dream signing. The way he effortlessly glides past players as well is majestic. Would be the perfect partner for Matic.His second assist was out of this world.

RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 If Costa stay, Dzeko or Balotelli will be a good alternative in my opinion. Better than any of our strikers at the moment. I think City could sell him if we bid for the right price. Don't forget they were sanctioned for FFP, so they might need some 'legally' income for their transfer fees balance.If we can get one of them, add with one from our three strikers, plus it seems Lukaku will be back. I think we are set in front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beepu 1,714 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 July 1st? Then how will any deals get done before the WC if the WC starts before July 1st?Clubs can agree on deals before it opens, just the players aren't allowed to officially move clubs before that date. Just like how we signed Marin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
