Interesting stat, but doesn't convince me of much. Aguero creates *so* many chances, with his movement, first touch and close control.
Personally I'd rather have a player like Aguero who creates 100 chances and gets 20 goals rather than another player who creates 60 and gets the same 20 goals. The latter may be more efficient, but the former keeps the opposition under more pressure for more of the game.
Aguero had less than one shots per game more than Sanchez last season but scored less goals and in the chances created for others stakes, Sanchez was way ahead. Sanchez also made more dribbles and tackles than Aguero.
The fact is that last season, Sanchez was more productive and more of a threat than Aguero. That's why Pep wants him.
