While his stamp on Scott Parker may have limited Roberto Mancini’s forward options over the upcoming Gameweeks, Mario Balotelli looks to have made matters a little less complicated for us Fantasy managers. With Fulham, Blackburn and Bolton all arriving at the Etihad between Gameweek 24-27, City’s front line looks primed for investment, with Sergio Aguero and Edin Dzeko vying for our attentions…

In this week’s “Versus” article for members, we take a look at both players’ displays over the last four Gameweeks, analysing their Opta and ICT Index stats, in addition to their overall Fantasy Premier League (FPL) output, to weigh up the pros and cons of their respective acquisitions.

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

    Do away goals count in the Carling cup?

          They both won 1-0 at home in yesterdays game so no away goals. If the aggregate score after extra time is a draw City will go through.

      Yes me too.

      End up changing your team to get in Everton players then have to ship them out when they all get 2 points.
