    While there will be plenty of punters for aguero some other serious value in the citeh team. Yaya for 8m based on his high position ,marauding runs, shots etc. is a a very good option.He could have had 2/3 tonight.

    Ah well - it could have been double that score but the Swans have some positives to take from this game, including the new keeper. Surely a place in a few peoples's "new" teams?

    Aguero didn't take long to light up the Premiership did he?
