When Jose Mourinho was asked whether he voted for the Uruguayan ( Luis Suarez ), the Chelsea manager told reporters: He bites, not this season, the previous season. This is a different season so Im not speaking about one mistake that a man can have, and you will have to be punished for the rest of your life if you make a mistake on the football pitch so thats not the point for me. Dzeko has scored 16 times this season, a season-best for him since joining City and Mourinho feels the Bosnian has proved to be highly reliable in light of injuries after starting the season third in the pecking order. He continued: My player of the year would be always from the champion, always, so if the champion is Man City. I would say a City player and if I have to choose one, I think I would choose Dzeko. Why? Because he was the third striker in the beginning of the season, he was even behind his managers first choices and when the team needed him, in crucial moments of the season, he made the difference. He made the difference, Dzeko. In this moment, I think he has 16 goals. Sixteen goals for the third striker is something spectacular, and not just that, the quality of his game. In a thinly veiled jibe at Suarez, Mourinho underlined Dzekos disciplinary record, adding: So if I would choose, and also the kind of player he is. Hes not just a goal scorer, he assists, he plays, he behaves, hes fair, he doesnt dive, doesnt try to put opponents on the stands with accumulation of cards. I would choose Dzeko.
