Kompany: Dzeko will be great Man City asset

Vincent Kompany has no doubts Edin Dzeko will be a success at Manchester City.

Kompany says he is already settling in nicely.

"Even though Edin is only 24, he is an experienced player and you can see he has a German mentality and has the attitude to just keep working hard and things will go his way," Kompany told City's website.

"Maybe he could have scored at Villa, but strikers will always miss chances and defenders will inevitably concede goals - it's just the way it is - but if you get your head down and work hard, you will get closer to the perfection we all crave.

"It's not easy to adapt just like that, but I've seen signs already that Edin is settling in. It's also difficult to arrive part-way through a season when everything is in full flow, but I saw enough of him against Wolves and Villa to suggest he's going to be a major asset for us."
