Argie Bargie At City: You Bet One Argentine Out And One In
With Carlos Tevez seemingly on his way out of Manchester City, William Hill have opened a market on who will come in to replace him, making Sergio Aguero their 1/2 favourite. Second favourite is Napoli playmaker Marek Hamsik at 5/1 with Samuela Etoo, Giuseppe Rossi and Karim Benzema all offered at 6/1. Wayne Rooney is a 100/1 outsider.
Tevez was in such sparkling form last season that he will be very hard to replace, but money is not an option for Manchester City and we fully expect them to splash the cash in order to find the best possible replacement, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.
Tevezs goals were vital into propelling Manchester City into third place in the Premier League last season and Hills offer 4/7 that no player scores more than the 20 that he racked up last season. Of the players still at City, Hills make Balotelli 15/8 favourite to be the clubs leading scorer next season, although 7/4 is on offer for any player not currently there (or not a striker) to lead the scoring charts.
