No it ain't. It's because it's Man $#@!in cini and his hard on for Balotelli. And of course because Aguero is super class.
LOL please..That is poor reasoning..Ask that City fan over here..He was dropped because Dzeko was blowing hot and cold..

Are you trying to twist stats to say he was a success?

He has 16 goals in 45 appearances for Man City
That's counting 1 minute appearences as well. So you're simply twisting it. Give me a minutes per goal ratio if you want to sound reliable.

Because City fans are always right ? Don't need him, watched City more than enoguh and Dzeko delivered the goods when actually relied upon many times.

Haha I was just doing what you were doing, funny how I am simply twisting it. A lot of his goals came as a substitute but yet you were quoting total goals with only his games started, very misleading. I also remember him scoring plenty of goals when Man City were on fire at the start of last season and the football was coming almost too easily for them, tonking teams by 4,5,6 goals.


"Statistics are just like mini-skirts, they give you good ideas but hide the most important thing"


I've watched Dzeko a lot since he's been at Man City, he hasn't been a great success so far. I'm not calling him a flop by any means but we wouldn't be talking about a possible transfer to Juve if he had been the £35 million, £135,000 a week striker Mancini hoped he was buying...

Where's the link for that stat?

Regardless, you're trying to use that to suggest Dzeko is better than Aguero?



...Edin, is this you?

Substitute playing occasions are never a good representation for the confidence type of striker.

Still you do not seem to argue that his goal per 110 minutes is a pure fact and it is very strong. City and Mancini's transfer politics are not to be taken seriously. That should never be a valid arguement anywhere. They'll always want the guy that bags goals somewhere else...

He has not been a success because of one reason: mancini. He ain't no Cavani but he'll do the job.

What i'd like to see is a greater statistical breakdown. Aguero started the majority of the big games when he was fit. Dzeko got more of his opportunities against the smaller sides, especially towards the end of the season. So if we look at the stat you quoted blankly, it's not telling us everything, because it's not considering the quality of opponents each player was facing, or the scenarios of each game...if we assume Aguero was playing a higher majority of the better opponents and the games with more pressure etc as he was the number 1 striker.

...or how many goals Dzeko scored as a substitute where he had less time to deliver versus Aguero starting most games.

Just got it for you:
Dzeko scores every 110 minutes.
Aguero every 117.

Very hot n cold.
That honestly doesnt say anything..This argument is moot..You seriously comparing Goal-scoring ratio of both players ?

Dzeko > Jovetic.

Easily.
Well based on our needs right now,think i have to reluctantly agree

Oh my god :sergio:

And how can you be so sure of Dzeko maintaining his scoring ratio if he started most games Nostradamus ?

Seriously guys i'm telling you some stats can be very misleading..They dont tell the entire story.
