Rest them for what? As for Dzeko, even an unfit Tevez is massively superior, in my opinion.

Silva's already been rested. Aguero should be rested he had been poor last few games.

Without our recent run of form we shouldnt take anything for granted...even if we are at the Etihad.
Interested to see what Tevez can do with a start and playing alongside his compatriot.
I'm not really a City fan. I'm just here for attention.

Rest them for Norwich, Wolves, Filth. They had too many games.

you're happy that a player who shit on city's jersey is playing? Dzeko's been good this season, you say whatever you want. He was working his ass off while tevez was on his vacation...

Maybe. But, we have to win. I think the title has been pissed away, but if we don't win, it truly will be. They have to play, they are 2 of our best players, crap form or not.

See the pattern?
The players heads have gone.
Spot on. So all we need to do is just get on with it, and take it game by game till the end of the season.

Tevez is nowhere near fit. Mancini hasnt given him enough gametime to reach any level of fitness. Dzeko is poor but at least he is fit and should have started tonight imo. Mancini is really tried to sicken Dzeko. His man management is bizarre at times.

That's what I had in mind. But, Mancini is thinking different I guess.

I think Dzeko will have a role to play in today's game for sure. He will get at less 30 minutes imo.

Nope..he will get his usual 6 minutes from the end to score 2 goals.
THEY SAY SWEARING IS DUE TO A LIMITED VOCABULARY. I KNOW THOUSANDS OF WORDS, BUT I STILL PREFER "FUCK OFF" TO "GO AWAY"

I really doubt him lasting the full game, I really fancy him coming off at one point.

Aguero has had two matches out with blisters, Silva missed the arsenal match - how many more matches do you want to rest them for???? Surely give them game time against WBA & if they can find some form from that point onwards it's a bonus

Add to that, Mancini still wants to keep Dzeko and not sell him in the summer for some reason! I would be really surprised if Dzeko isn't around come August.

Most players need some rest at some stage to get their form together imo.
