Dzeko to the Lane ?

Are we about to sign Berbatov MKII ?

Don't wanna rain on your parade guys but will Ole Red Nose do the deal with Mk1 for Mk2 ?

Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson is ready to offer striker Dimitar Berbatov as part of a £28m-deal for Wolfsburg forward Edin Dzeko.

I know it's only U Tube but I like the look of this fella. It's the first I've seen of him but, rather than Berbatov, I thought he reminded me of Van Persie. He appears to have that knack of making a yard out of nothing and has the technique to take advantage of that.

Snaring a Striker like him will be a major coup for us.


Offload Keane, bring him in and we have a forward line as formidable as any. Get the midfield to weigh in as well and we'll score bundles.

Fingers crossed.

Certainly looks good, but how weak is the Krout league? did he score against Fulham?

No idea mate. We don't get Kraut footy over here but I believe Jim watches a fair bit of it, maybe he can give us a heads up?

did he score against Fulham?

Haven't got a Scooby Dave. Don't get UEFA Cup over here either.




We do get Champions League though.

Just looked up the Fulham games , Dave and nope he didnt .... ...Ist Leg, a 2-1 home win for Fulham , followed by a Fulham 1-0 away win at Wolfsburg ...Found some long highlights too of the Craven Cottage game and just the one header by Dzeko which really he should've done better with ...No other segments of him shown , maybe he got injured then taken off ? Or maybe was having a Berba type last few games at Spurs , sulking wishing he were somewhere else , thinking that he's to good for Wolfsburg and the Europa League? ...

Well in that case Arnie, do we need another sulky Bebatovesque type player? what does concern me, for whatever reason and know Fulhams defence is pretty tight, if were gonna step up a level, the type of player were after surely would have stuck one away over two legs against Fulham.

Maybe its harsh of us to judge him on those two games, Dave , he may have been carrying an injury or the team were just out of form at that moment ...
But his overall 3 seasons at Wolfsburg are pretty good and we have to take note that, Wolfsburg are not one of Germany's elite clubs and that Dzeko's 26 goals helped them to win their first ever Bundesliga in 2009!Edin Džeko - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Maybe so Arnie, looking at the clip, he can score with either foot and is good in the air and at only 24, maybe worth a punt, however his contracted until 2013 and Wolfsburg are also in the champs league.

They missed out finishing 8th , Dave ......No Champs League , no EUROPA for them ..2009–10 Fußball-Bundesliga - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Copy & pasted below part of an interview with him & some stats I found. Plays in the same front-line as Obifemi Martens, the guy who was at the barcodes . . . . .

Wolfsburg striker Edin Dzeko has admitted his side's failings this term may see him seek a summer move transfer.

He helped the side win the league title last year to bring Champions League football to the Volkswagen Arena this term but, after a poor showing in the elite competition and on the domestic front, the Bosnian is less than impressed.

Wolfsburg dropped into the Europa League after their Champions League elimination but succumbed to Premier League side Fulham and Dzeko is unhappy that they will not be playing in Europe next season.

Speaking to reporters, he said: "We were champions, then played in the Champions League and Europa League, and now nothing next season.

"That's very disappointing. My goal was always to play for a big club. I hope no-one will be angry with me in Wolfsburg because of that.

"I didn't want to think about a transfer in the past few months because that would have been unprofessional.

"If I go, I will miss a lot of things. It wouldn't be easy, and if it happens, it will only be because it's better for my football future."
