Dzeko at 20 mill?!

Why not? Surely it's better business than Benteke at 30? They want Sterling. It's perfect, right?

He doesn't want to come?
 
Four questions in an opening post. Impressive.

1) I agree he'd be good.

2) It's 32.5 but yes it would be better. Shame he's nearly 30 so age has to be a factor.

3) As a swap and cash deal (which rarely happens) then it could be good.

4) Probably not - Given the wages he's on and what we'd pay him. No CL etc.
 
Indeed.

But how they value him would determine the pay on to QPR... It would be complicated... And I doubt Dzeko would fancy it tbh.

I rate him tho... Good player
 
Decent player but also a streaky one. He's done OK at Citeh as an impact player coming off the bench, but that's a luxury we don't have room for. I wouldn't want to be relying on him as our main source of goals any more than I want to rely on Benteke.

I honestly rate Dzeko a little higher than that JJ - He's a great player. Strong, good in the air and a nose for a poach. Wasted at city and has been for years. If we'd have got him 4-5 years ago I'd be all over it but now at his age I'm inclined to agree. Benteke is a similar type player right? Only 24 as well..... #justsayin 😉
 
I like Dzeko, he's a great centre forward but if people are going to ask questions about Benteke's suitability, then you could probably apply the same questions of Dzeko even more so.
 
My abiding memory of him is that time he lay down injured away to Everton for about 10 fucking minutes near the end of the game when we were chasing for the title. Completely fuck all wrong with him.

He's a fucking cunt.
 
No. He's a very good finisher but he can be lazy and his all round game is err lacking.

If you're going to play two up front you can accommodate him otherwise awful idea.

I don't think he'd come here anyways.

My abiding memory of that game is Baines taking an eternity to take a throw in or deliver a set piece when City were ahead. He wasn't alone. A lot of them Bluenose bastards never got out of second gear. Barkley and Naismith from my memory were the only ones that seemed up for it.

I think that's harsh. They went for it, and gave City a real game. City were just superior when it counted.

Maybe it is, but I genuinely remember thinking that at the time. They just didn't seem to have much go in them. The weird atmosphere at Goodison that evening(nearly sure it was a Sat 5.30 k.o?) probably didn't help matters either.
Anyway, that season is one I'd love to erase from my memory. The highs were unbelievable and surreal at the same time but the inevitable lows overshadowed everything. Still gutted to this day.

As for Dzeko, he certainly knows where the onion bag is. Very good finisher with either foot, and a powerful presence in the air. He is a lazy twat though and you really need to build a team around him so probably best avoided.
 
If Benzema is available for under £18M, is he not worth a look?

That's a genuine Q btw, I haven't watched him since forever, he might be shit now or something

Yep, he scored a header that day too. Everton missed a few sitters and Howard left in a soft goal as well I think. A Saturday evening kick off IIRC.
 
I don't see the point of us going for Dzeko, especially since we are turning our noses up at Benteke. Benteke is younger and hence more expensive but is of a similar ilk to Dzeko.

Benzema is streets ahead of both Benteke and Dzeko. Chances of him joining us are about as likely as Sterling's agent making a public apology in the press for being such a cunt.
 
Yep, Benzema is great.

I think we might see Benzema do a morientes in the PL. Seems like a player with big movement on the ball. Think he would struggle like he did. Remember morientes talking about the second less offered when on the ball in the PL compared to La liga?
