Edin Dzeko admits his season with Manchester City has been frustrating.

Dzeko has endured an injury-decimated season and has not scored since a double at Hull on September - his only Premier League goals of the season.

"I have missed a lot of games this season and the frustrating thing has been that I ended last year strongly and was determined that this season was going to be even better," he told Patria.

"It could be that I had too many games with not enough rest in between. I played many games for City and then had the World Cup soon after so that could have been the problem.

"I felt I started this campaign really well and even if the goals weren't coming, I felt good and was very happy with my game but the injuries held me back.

"The good thing is we still have three months of the current campaign to go and we are still fighting for the Premier League and the Champions League and hopefully I can get back to my best form as quickly as possible because there is no time to waste.

"I obviously need some more games under my belt so starting against Hull and coming on against Stoke was really good for me. Everything felt OK, but there is much more to come and I need to find my best form again as soon as I can."
