The final match of Gameweek 1 see Man City play host to Swansea. The Dugout Discussion chatroom is open for business as usual, so come in, take a seat and let’s see if we Roberto Mancini’s side can be the only team to win at home in the opening set of matches…

Edin Dzeko starts up front for City, with Mario Balotelli dropping to the bench as Adam Johnson takes his place in the first XI. And no, Aleksander Kolarov doesn’t start.

Man City: Hart, Richards, Kompany, Lescott, Clichy, Toure Yaya, De Jong, Barry, Silva, Dzeko, Johnson. Subs: Taylor, Zabaleta, Milner, Kolarov, Savic, Aguero, Balotelli.

Swansea: Vorm, Rangel, Caulker, Williams, Tate, Britton, Dobbie, Agustien, Dyer, Graham, Sinclair. Subs: Moreira, Orlandi, Routledge, Lita, Moore, Allen, Gower.
Referee: Mike Dean (Wirral)

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    RVP, Aguero and Suarez - possible without ruining the rest of your team?

      Looking at the possibility of doing Rooney, Torres and Aguero. It can be done but N'Zogbia is my most expensive midfielder. I will probably downgrade Torres to Saha and add a top midfielder.

      Given Vorm
      Kompany Bosingwa Baines Enrique Simpson
      Formica Hoolahan Nani Moses Ferguson
      RVP Aguero Suarez
      Seems fairly balanced to me.

    Is anyone gonna resist not getting him? So many strikers of the same price have better fixtures, and he'll likely be rotated when the CL comes around.

    I'm considering, but I'm not f*cking up my team for him.

      Demi you have to look at who will play, suarez is less or a rotation risk (people incl myself not considering Tevez/dezko/balotelli - and nasri will prob come in also), but augero looks like he could wreck the place. that said liverpool werea little disjointed esp in 2nd half against a solid sunderland team, whereas city played a team just up from championship. I think you're best to get both. it's 20.5 million, but so worth it!
