Manchester City new signing, Sergio Aguero, made a dramatic debut by scoring two goal, as City crushed promoted Swansea City to make a winning start to their English Premier League campaign tonight.

The £38million club record signing came off the bench moments after Edin Dzeko had broken the deadlock at the Etihad Stadium to score twice and set up another for David Silva.

Dzeko's goal had not arrived until the 57th minute, but Roberto Mancini's men thoroughly deserved their victory with Silva and Gareth Barry hitting the bar among a host of other chances.

Aguero - signed as a likely replacement for last season's wantaway talisman Carlos Tevez, who was not in the squad - had been kept in reserve by manager Roberto Mancini due to a lack of match fitness.
