Manchester City's Sergio Aguero: Charged with violent conduct
Aguero was charged for violent conduct by the FA on Tuesday, which could result in a three-match ban.
Analysis:
Aguero elbowed West Ham's Winston Reid in the head during last weekend's match, an incident that went unseen by the referee, which is why an independent panel will now determine his punishment. If it goes through, he will miss two Premier League matches, as he will be able to serve one of them during EFL Cup play, making him eligible to return 24 Sept. against Swansea City. Kelechi Iheanacho could start in his place, or Wilfried Bony if he is still around after the transfer window closes.
