Having escaped any major injury concerns from Saturdayโ€™s action, Sunday has brought us a major worry with Sergio Aguero hobbling from the field after just 9 minutes of the clash with Southampton. While he walked from the pitch with assistance, seconds later he was stretchered from the sidelines.

The Argentine striker, well backed by Fantasy managers going into the Gameweek, appeared to twist his knee in a challenge with Nathaniel Clyne.

Aguero is currently owned by 32% of Fantasy Premier League managers, with 35% ownership in the Sky Sports game.

The latest from the City medical staff was that they were described as “cautiously optimistic” on the prognosis of Aguero’s injury. According to Sky Sports’ reports, the striker will undergo a scan at the club once the injury has settled when a more conclusive opinion of the problem can be gained.

Roberto Mancini confirmed post-match that his striker would undergo further scans with a full prognosis likely within 48-hours.

โ€œI am worried about Sergio because anything around the knee is dangerous and this injury was so strange. We will have to wait, but we are not sure exactly what the problem is at this point.โ€

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

        Didn't notice any Nasri limping. Midfield is a bit of a minefield anyway, the Scouts deserve a bit of credit for picking Yaya who got an assist. I can see him being allowed to get forward a bit more with Aguero missing. On the other hand, it depends if Barry recovers soon...

    For all thinking about taking double-digit point hits or trashing your WC, wise up.

    GW1 still has two games to be played.

    Unless you have Aguero, Agger, Ramires, and multiple 4.0 benchwarmers, there is absolutely no reason to overhaul your squad.

    Think.
    Unless your in one of my leagues, for which I say: WC it up.

    Lots of people already transferring out Aguero if you look at NTI.
