lol, he doesn't give anything more than anyone else. I don't know how that myth started. In fact, he is the most inactive during the games and as said, it is also 100% visible from the stats, if it wasn't obvious for you when watching him play.
He has been here 3 years now, and he has been a rotational player. Let's remain sane, stick to the facts and not create a new religion.

Yes, Mandzukic has been immenso for us the last couple of years but let's not pretend as if he makes the most miles on the pitch, if anything, I don't like his off the ball movement but that's just his style. His occasional run backwards and defending is very impressive for an attacker but then he goes missing upfront often. Ronaldo was free on the counter late in the game against Inter and not a single player of ours was in the box to pass to, and it's really the responsibility of the striker to be there on those occasions.
Having said that, he definitely deserves a new contract but I also understand the club's perspective. Mandzukic isn't the youngest anymore and you don't want to be stuck with an old player with high wages. From a purely economic perspective it is understandable but then again, they have offered players such as Khedira immense wages which to this day I still don't understand.

If you are going to use him, then send the ball to his head so he can drop it to Ronaldo or Dybala. Otherwise, don't play him.
The amount of times we pass the ball in our own 3rd in horrible spots is inexcusable. Why does Costa pass to Alex Sandro instead of smashing to Mario? Why does Pjanic pass to Matuidi in the game before instead of smashing to Mario? Why do we take short goal kicks every time and get pressed, then concede a throw?
