I still like him. But there's no excuse from him to play this poorly tonight. He was rested specifically for the Torino match (Inzaghi said). Missing sitters left and right. I'm glad he managed to keep his head cool and made a crucial assist to Alexis. Appreciate the effort but this can't continue.

He started the game terribly. All the passes and everything he did was pisspoor. We can't afford that because how shit our offensive play is generally. Can't have those completely misjudged passes all over the place. His task is hard, to be the target man but still, it was a bad fucking performance.

Should be our 4th choice striker, or at least 3rd. Behind Sanchez and Lautaro.

At least we know Sanchez and Lautaro can score against Liverpool..

4th choice definitely. He didnt play against Liverpool and guess what,we won. That will do for me. But Limone is typical stubborn italian coach and you cant do nothing there. He'll play when he is fit enough,always.

I don't get Simeone,
he should rotate Lautaro, Sanchez and Correa, and have Džeko as super sub, around 70 minute,
he would be ideal for that
this looks suitable if
korea wasnt fragile.
and loses his stamina post 50 min.

Either our midfield and wingback do magic, we can't win with Lautaro - Dzeko.

Hakan, Perisic, and even Dumfries need perform to fill huge hole in our attacking department.

One more thing. He should stop playing as a winger. Inzaghi has been having this weird set-up since Christmas. Dzeko is no Lukaku when it comes to hold-up play. But he'd be much more useful in the centre than trying to out run the opponent's wingback on the flank.

For what is worth, us, and some other teams, are really borderline abusing these older stars who simply can't perform as before and we need them to. He is showing huge respect to the club imo the way he behaves, it's up to the coach and the owners to sort this out.

Regarding his heading, that header from the cross from the right when he took a shot at almost 90 degrees angle is extremely difficult to pull, as I'm being told by people who play.

Because he is old. He is losing mobility everyday, he looks exhausted every time he touches the ball

He should go to Hajduk Split that is his level right now.

Even though i am not a big Scamacca fan, whenever i see Dzeko miss an uncontested header i wish we had already signed him.

The best thing for Scamacca’s transfer stock is us watching Dzeko every week. He gets more expensive with every missed sitter.

I can't watch this dude anymore. He can't fucking MOVE. Has Inzaghi lost his fucking mind starting him every game? He can't even hold the ball up anymore which is virtually the only trait he brings that our other forwards dont.

I can't even really blame Dzeko. Inzaghi has completely run him into the ground. He shouldn't have played half the minutes he's played so far.

Just saw "True Grit" again ... Dzeko reminds me of Mattie's horse.
