Frankly I reckon he will slot straight in as an out and out centre forward, this will give Tevez room to drop a little deeper, as he prefers to do anyway. Dzeko can then receive and hold the ball and provide service to Tevez, Silva, Milner, Yaya, Johnson etc as they follow up..... That's if he doesn't just turn and bury it in the net himself.. Cannot wait. This is the missing piece. Its about time we had a few 6-0 and 7-0 score lines!
What are you basing Balotelli not fitting in the squad, on?
OK, Balotelli is undoubtedly talented but I don't believe we have found the best way to use him yet, his injuries and suspensions have not helped him to become a part of the team. I am not convinced his game and Carlos' game are ideally suited. I am not convinced that his personality makes it easy for him to integrate easily. From the introductory videos the club have release, Dzeko seems more comfortable on day one than Balotelli does 6 months in.
