As we count down the days to Saturday’s Premier League kick-off, the Carlos Tevez – Sergio Aguero conundrum has become a major issue for Fantasy managers after the former’s scintillating strike and strong display against Chelsea in Sunday’s Community Shield.

Having looked at the City midfield area in Monday evening’s Technical Area piece, we now turn our attentions to the Argentine duo’s performance against the Blues but first of all, we use the Members Area Comparison Tool to gauge their respective displays over the final four Gameweeks of 2011/12 to look for the similarities within Roberto Mancini’s new formation:

    Mata or Lampard? I'm erring with Lampard at the moment, but I've got the cash to spare if Mata takes my fancy

    I had Vermealen in from the v beginning but now trying to free up cash for standard rooney/RVP switch - I know he's a bit of a liability but at £4.5m is Jenkinson not a decent way into Arsenal defence? Guaranteed starter and 0.4% ownership....

    I haven't been on here all summer. My wife just gave birth to our first child last weekend, and it has just dawned on me that it all kicks off tomorrow.

    Slightly clueless as to who is/is not in form, favour, or worth a gamble at this early stage. This is what I have put together, any and all comments welcome:

    Federici Jask
    Ivanovic Zabaleta Hangeland Fabio Clyne

    Grrr... the price drop from Aguero to Tevez gives so much room for manoeuvre.. I just can't shake the feeling that Tevez is going to fall from favour and Aguero could hoover up points with penalty duties, etc.

    It's the difference between being able to have DDG instead of Federici AND having the money to upgrade Torres to Rooney GW2, and not being able to.

    Don't think I've ever been as confused pre-season as this one.

    Also, is anyone going with Joe Allen?

        Bale is out the on the flank, while VDV loves drifting in. Plus VDV is on penalties. His only problem is injury but I am sure that VDV is a better pick as long as he is fit.
