Everything is different now - everything is all about the little lady!” Dzeko told asroma.com, when asked about new fatherhood. “It was good to be away this summer, to spend time with my family. It definitely changes your perspective [being a father]. Sometimes if I’m angry or nervous about the game or something else then I come home and everything goes away.”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;On his reflections on last term, he added: “It was my first season in Italy and I had to adapt and that’s why it was a little bit more difficult than perhaps everyone expected. But I think now I am ready for the new season. Last year I did not have pre-season with the team, I didn’t have a lot of friendly games before the season, which made things more difficult for me. Now I’m here from the beginning, which is very important for me. At the moment I feel good and I want to continue with the good work.”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;“I definitely needed this first year - even if I expected and wanted to be better.  But still I scored eight goals, so I want to see what I can do when I am on the top level – I want to see how that would be. I am not the classic centre forward who waits for the ball in the box,” he said. “I want to move, to find space and lose my marker. We [Spalletti and I] are also doing some work after the group sessions – he is doing some finishing work with me which can only help me to get better.”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;That is on top of an already busy training schedule: “We are working very hard and doing lots of tactical work too. It is hard, we work every day – two times a day – and we work a lot. But we also have a lot of time with the ball, which of course is what we like the most. That is why everyone is happy and enjoying it. I never talk about that sort of thing before the season” – but believes the looming Champions League play-off tie can kick off the club’s season in the right way. I think the most important thing for the club, for the fans and for the players is to have these two preliminary games, these qualification games for the Champions League, and to play well in them and qualify for the Champions League,” he said. “Then from that point everything can change in our favour.”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;“The fans are here and they are behind me which is good for me, it’s good for my head,” he said. “I will try to do my best. I try to work hard in training and hopefully that will help me to be better next season.”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;&lt;em&gt;(Photo LaPresse)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;http://www.asroma.com&#34;&gt;www.asroma.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Edin Dzeko believes everything is coming together for him to show Roma fans what he can really do in a Giallorossi shirt this season. By his own admission the striker, who joined the club from Manchester City in the summer of 2015, did not enjoy the best first year in Rome – scoring eight goals in a Serie A TIM campaign that had its share of frustrations.

Heading into his second season in Italian football, however, Dzeko is confident that he can show supporters what he is really capable of. A full pre-season with Luciano Spalletti gives the 30-year-old the opportunity to better understand his manager’s wishes and his teammates’ tendencies, while becoming a father for the first time during the off-season has given him a fresh perspective on the game.

“It’s nice. Everything is different now - everything is all about the little lady!” Dzeko told asroma.com, when asked about new fatherhood. “It was good to be away this summer, to spend time with my family. It definitely changes your perspective [being a father]. Sometimes if I’m angry or nervous about the game or something else then I come home and everything goes away.”

On his reflections on last term, he added: “It was my first season in Italy and I had to adapt and that’s why it was a little bit more difficult than perhaps everyone expected. But I think now I am ready for the new season. Last year I did not have pre-season with the team, I didn’t have a lot of friendly games before the season, which made things more difficult for me. Now I’m here from the beginning, which is very important for me. At the moment I feel good and I want to continue with the good work.”

“I definitely needed this first year - even if I expected and wanted to be better.  But still I scored eight goals, so I want to see what I can do when I am on the top level – I want to see how that would be. I am not the classic centre forward who waits for the ball in the box,” he said. “I want to move, to find space and lose my marker. We [Spalletti and I] are also doing some work after the group sessions – he is doing some finishing work with me which can only help me to get better.”
