Mancini Edin for trouble

EDIN DZEKO has blasted Manchester City for using him as a sub.

The Bosnian started just 16 Prem games last term, scoring 14 goals as City won a first title since 1968.

And striker Dzeko, a £27million buy from Wolfsburg 18 months ago, will seek to quit the Etihad if boss Roberto Mancini continues to leave him out.

BENCH BOY... Edin Dzeko

He said: “In the second half of last season, I suddenly got to start far fewer games — and I’ve got no idea why.

“I lost my rhythm. I joined City in order to play in matches.

“I never imagined that things would turn out the way they have.

“I am too good for the bench. If I continue to sit matches out, then anything is possible.”
