Jovetic just turned 22. Hard to compare him to someone in his best footballing years, like Lavezzi.
Jovetic's name tells us he's Balkan but nothing about his play says the same. That's what I like about him. Apparently he works like a madman on trainings and that can easily be spotted during football matches. He runs as much as Pepe. But unlike Pepsi he also has natural talent. The boy is a leader and he's so young.
A big warning though - gets injured a lot. His style of play guarantees lots of beating and it looks like he doesn't have strong bones

Missed the complete 2010/2011 season and he regularly got/gets small injuries now and before the big injury.

Nah, too much Balkan is never good. Two in the starting XI will be more than enough.
