If Robert Lewandowski played 328 full 90 minute games without scoring a single goal, he’d still have a higher career goal rate than Edin Dzeko currently has.
Dzeko has had a brilliant career, underrated for most of it, but let’s not take the piss here…
I’ve spent 11 or 12 years thinking that Dzeko is at least as good as Lewandowski, in part because he has done it at harder clubs. I was always too scared to tweet it because I thought I’d get shouted at on here. Maybe tonight’s the night!
