Edin Dzeko is in the kind of form that most strikers can only dream of.
The Bosnian international bagged his 11th goal in eight matches in all competitions for Roma on Sunday against Torino thanks to a sublime finish set up by a probing ball from Radja Nainggolan that eluded four I Granata defenders.
Dzeko now has 19 league goals on the season, good enough for joint top with Juventus forward Gonzalo Higuain.
Mohamed Salah made it two to the good for Roma inside of twenty minutes as Luciano Spalletti's lot looks to vault Napoli for second in Serie A with a victory.
