Man City striker Dzeko has no regrets taking pop at Man Utd supporter base

Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko stands by claims Manchester are dominated by City and not Manchester United fans.

Dzeko has no regrets making the controversial comments.

He told Sport Magazine: "Yes, and it's true what I said. I didn't say it to charm people. If you look at Manchester United, they're a global team and they are used to having all the superstars.

"People from all around the world come to see them at Old Trafford. Just a couple of years ago, Manchester City didn't have all these star names they have today, and they were more the local team in Manchester.

"It makes sense. But not I think, with the new owners, that City have taken a step into becoming a more global club, which is good.

"There's huge potential for a club like Manchester City."
