Sergio Aguero Hamstrung: Happy New Year, Carlos Tevez

Carlos Tevez could find himself back in the starting XI

Manchester City strolled to a 3-0 win today at home against Stoke but have lost Sergio Aguero for the near future as the world class Argentine limped off with a hamstring complaint.

The news could perhaps propel Carlos Tevez back into the starting XI, after he has been marginalized in recent weeks. Edin Dzeko, of course, is the form option – having scored 3 goals in his last 2 matches – and coming in priced at just 7.3m in the official Fantasy Premier League game.

While the loss of Aguero will come as a big blow to Roberto Mancini in his chase for a second successive Premier League title, Dzeko & Tevez owners will rest a bit easier over the next few gameweeks knowing their assets look nailed on.
