Fantastic Dzeko. Besides of goals tonight, he was great in the build-up and looked pretty sharp. It's crucial for the team that our key players are picking up their form ahead of our tough schedule in the league.

Yes!! As long as we don't overuse him, he will be good for us.
Thing about old players is not that they cannot play or run anymore, it is their recovery time being a lot longer, so if we rest them well, the quality is there.
Obviously there will be some drop in pace and strength, cause their joints cannot handle the muscle weight etc., but the knowledge and skills are still there, and the body has not deteriorated to a point where they cannot execute it if they are fully charged.

I shit on this guy relentlessly when necessary so I think it's only fair to point out that he was amazing today and instrumental in our passing the group stage. Hopefully with Lukaku back he can play 20 minutes per match without needing a respirator.

He has 22 goals in CL and also 15 assists. Not that bad considering he didn't play in CL every season and also wasn't always the first choice in attack.

Rare player yesterday that was composed during 0-0. Almost everyone else was shitting themselves a bit especially with stupid passes/giveaways in our own half.

We needed the first goal so that everyone could gain more confidence.

According to Guarro, Inter would like to extend Dzeko for one more season and there have already been talks with the player.

For half the wage, why not.
Anything above is too much.

I'd guess yes if it's a 1 year deal, he starts 90% of the games from bench and takes a 50% pay cut. Even at 37y he's probably more useful than Correa.

Lautaro-Lukaku
(Thuram-Dzeko)

That is of course if Lukaku gets his fucking ass fit for second half of season and starts performing, thus us trying to get him on loan for second season.

Don't have one.
Well if we were normally ran club then I would think twice about giving him an extension, but you just know if we let him go given our financial situation we will end up with someone like correa or dollar store version of dzeko.

If we can get rid of Correa, I'm all in for extending Dzeko for lower salary for one more year. Dzeko has shown this season how useful he is. We just need to figure out the starting partner for Lautaro and one extra bench striker. Dunno how doable it is but let's hope. From this season, going to next season with Toro-Correa sounds so much worse than going with Toro-Dzeko.
