Pretty much confirms what most would think: Aguero & Tevez are the best footballers, Dzeko is the best finisher but isn't very good at keeping the ball, Balotelli is decent & not yet quite as good as the other 3. Tevez is much more of a footballer than the other 3 but currently not as good as a finisher but Dzeko gets a lot of goals as a sub.

Conclusion, Aguero & Tevez should start with Dzeko doing as he is doing & Balotelli 4th striker. Simples.

I just don't have the feeling that Tevez has played less minutes than Dzeko. It doesn't compute.

He missed most of last season.

Aha - based on the '11-'12 season, that makes a little more sense.

It's based on both seasons.

I know mate, after reading his opening paragraph I thought it was a summary of this season (without paying too much notice to the sheer number of minutes per player)
