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.

    From the Guardian MBM -- can't help laughing.

    "There's a hint of a young Steven Gerrard in full Roy of the Rovers mode about Lallana as he strides up through the middle, hoping that gravitational pull might bring his teammates with him, but he's forced to pass backwards and the half ends with a looping ball forward bouncing in to Hart's palms."

          I ended up without Boyce due to Rafael becoming nailed on in the short term. I didn't see all the game but Wigan looked decent once they woke up. If I had him I'd be happy to keep.

            City will still play good football and will be fun to watch. Even more fun to watch if they struggle a bit. Also, whether it's more important than FF depends on how much money is involved in your mini league.
