problem with dezko

[oilbaron]

hi first off, i'll explain my teams setup..
I play a 41212,with attacking fullbacks..The front 3 is usually aguero advanced playmaker(attack)..rightside is tevez as a deep lying forward(support.)And dzeko on the left a an advanced forward(attack.)
The thing is dzeko scoring and assists is way down.(Avg 1 goal in3/4,, Avg assist 1 in 6/7!!!!)But if i shove balotelli there his goal/assist ratio is alot better(goal avg 1 in 1, assist avg 1 in 2 atleast sometimes more.)
Am i missing something with dzeko? And if someone has dzeko and he scores/assists alot can you tell me what role you play him as..
On a note i will never use a targetman(which i know he's good at.)As i tend to play short fluid passing game.

I play crouch as a target man for Stoke in the first season and i have 60% possession most matches.

Complete forward attack.Why have you got a deep lying forward and an advanced playmaker, they will both want to play in the hole.I would change the DLF to complete forward support and have 2 complete forwards, one support, one attack.

play him as a complete forward instead - that should be a start...

i understand what you are saying about them both wanting to play in the hole,but as i watch my matches they interchange,when tevez drops off aguero tends to go more forward..and it works well they both usually score/assist each game....
i could go for the complete forward,but i just dont understand why dzeko is so bad at being an advanced forward and balotelli in the same postion is epic,im thinking it may have something to do with dzeko special move that he like to play with his back to goal?

Thats probly the reason yes, this is why he is best as a target man. As for Tw@otelli, his attributes suit an advanced forward i.e dribbling, pace, crossing etc.

i changed his role to a complete forward,and it worked great.Scoring@assist's have gone way up..
Time for balotelli to warm my bench
