Manchester City look set to be without star striker Sergio Aguero against Aston Villa on Saturday.
Aguero is still struggling with the adductor strain he picked up during the 4-0 win at Blackburn Rovers and had already been ruled out of Argentina's World Cup qualifier against Venezuela.
Mario Balotelli also had to sit out Italy's matches with a back injury while Carlos Tevez is suspended by the club until Thursday.But coach David Platt has played down a situation that could leave Edin Dzeko as the only conventional striker available when they face unbeaten Villa at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
"We have plenty of ways of playing," Platt said. "We have Yaya Toure, David Silva and Samir Nasri, three who can all work off the striker as well.
"Let's just concentrate on what we have available. We know we have a squad of players which means we can put a team out against anyone and make a good game of it.
