Mancini ready to hand Tevez a chance to impress after Aguero's long-haul duties


Carlos Tevez is in line for his first start of the Barclays Premier League season as Manchester City face Wigan at the Etihad Stadium.

Tevez - City’s captain and top scorer last season - has fallen down the pecking order at the club due to the £38m arrival of fellow Argentine Sergio Aguero in the summer and the form of Edin Dzeko.

But manager Roberto Mancini is considering shuffling his pack. Aguero has been to India and Bangladesh with Argentina over the last week while Tevez stayed in England.

City also have to consider a Champions League game at home to Napoli on Wednesday.
New signing Samir Nasri trained fully, despite a broken bone in his hand. Owen Hargreaves also joined in the session.
Mancini has a vast array of  talent at his disposal and Wigan manager Roberto Martinez yesterday described City as ‘near enough unplayable’.

City have scored 12 goals in their first three Premier League games and their performances have led to Martinez insisting  they have the look of champions.
