5 of the most underrated players in world football

#4 Edin Dzeko

His premier league spell did draw the desired attention.

Considering how most of his appearances came from the bench, Edin Dzeko was rather prolific during his four-and-a-half seasons at Manchester City.

Joining City for £37 million, the second highest fee paid by the club at that point, the Bosnian scored some extremely significant goals in his first full season in England, helping City to their first Premier League title that year.

Dzeko had netted 19 goals in 40 appearances in all competitions, including the equalizer against QPR in the final game of the season that made Aguero's last-gasp winner possible. Despite all these, he didn't receive as much appreciation and attention as his fellow strike-partner Sergio Aguero.

His contribution during City's other title winning campaign two years later was also hugely important, with his goals winning vital points that helped his team get over the finish line.

He is not remembered in the same regard as team-mates such as Sergio Aguero, Yaya Toure and David Silva, but there's a chance City would still have been waiting for their first title if it wasn't for their 6 ft 4" hit-man.
