Sergio Aguero - 2016/17 performances

[Blue Llama]

Is that relevant?

Yes it is. Sergio is a player whose primary function is to score goals and assist others to do the same. I find it difficult to see how he is not doing that and if i had to quantify it I would say he is 95% successful. If many of the other team members performed their primary roles at a level of 95% I would be ecstatic and City would be above Chelsea. In most things in life the goal is usually to optimize not maximize.

By the way, on the question of goals. I've been trying to hunt down the PL's top scorer when all competitions this season are combined. Last time I looked, it was him, comfortably, but I can't track it down.

He's on 31, but its hard to find a list that is correct, because some (conveniently) miss out the 3 he scored in Bucharest.

Thought he was unplayable at times, great performance and one that should keep him here. Look forward to him getting the all time scoring record

great thread.

possibly his best game for us this season. outstanding.

Surely that is the point ?

Optimize - do a team job.
Maximize - do what your best at, and ignore the team ethic.

Last night he did the team job, it won't stop him scoring goals, it might even make him score more goals.

Kun played with tevez, dzeko and beast with no problem. He needs some space to make an impact.

my wife said Aguero can take over from Silva when he retires. She might have a point after last night

After last night performance and how he was used/played I am convinced he isnt going anywhere other than City. He was deeper, more creative, provided a lot for Jesus, it's like a new role for him I feel.

Echo your sentiments but hasn't he got 31?

It would be our Messi, Suarez, Neymar. Almost the same nationalities too!

Apart from one is from Argentina, ones from Chile and ones from Brazil - three countries with intense rivalry and in the case of Argentina and Brazil a deep loathing.
