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

    No mate, I still have faith in Aguero. My comment that he is a flat-track bully was suggesting that Liverpool are too good a side for him to rip it up. He's got his big hauls this season against SWA WIG ful NEW STO.
