After Jesus benched himThey've played against the old Aguero though, the one who used to have to provide the spark himself with individual moments of magic. The team we're building now and the way we set up means that we'll create many more chances. Defenders having played against him before bears no relevance to what I expect from us over the next couple of seasons. A fit and firing Aguero is the best option for City, I've no doubt about that.
The same Aguero who has indeed adapted his game this season?

How many goals has Sergio scored again this season?
tell me, how hasnt Sergio adapted his game then? Or is missing chances not adapting your game-if its missing chances then Id say Sane, Sterling, Silva and Kev haven't adapted either.
I never said anything about missing chances I said his all round game passing control of the ball and decision makingHow many goals has Sergio scored again this season?

He's not adapted to defenders uping up there game against him
Well maybe they are aiming higher than the domestic title now(Kun would piss that league too as I said), champions league remember? Kun is a better striker than Cavani no doubt about that for me. I agree I don't think that's a likely destination just wanted to be clear you weren't saying that it wouldn't be an improvement for them.
Aguero's champions league record is very poor for a player of his quality, particularly in the knock out rounds. If they're hoping for someone to drag them up a level there, he's not the guy to do it.

He has shown all of that this season, may be not every game(but who has? even Silva as taken stick this season) but if you haven't noticed it then you simply do not know what you're talking about... just talking drivel to justify a transfer you want. Around the Barca game(not just that game there were a run of games where his form peaked and he was showing the hunger that was lacking) he was being given praise from all blues even the ones who said he wouldn't be able to adapt to Peps style... if you missed that that's more fool you.I never said anything about missing chances I said his all round game passing control of the ball and decision making

Still an improvement on Cavani, maybe in a less demanding league he'd have more legs come Champions League nights to put in performances like he did in the man of the match like one against Barca.Aguero's champions league record is very poor for a player of his quality, particularly in the knock out rounds.

You "can't wait" to potentially sell Aguero? Haha! You're a funny little thing aren't you. Even if you think it might be time to move him on, the way you've gone about it for the last few tedious months is weird. Trying to make out he's someone who's suddenly not good enough for us just because you want him gone makes no sense.Well I hope you have a nice day I can't wait till it's summer time
regardless of our situation, we shouldn't let this kid go to a rival.
considering our situation - if we were smart we'd replace aguero BEFORE he has a bad season. imo in the last couple of seasons he's been a little off his high standards, particularly this season. He's wasted so many chances.
Can he bounce back? sure. but in a seasons time when we have a 29-30 year old aguero still sitting on the fence in terms of form and our rivals have this kid, there's a good chance we messed up.
Don't let aguero be yaya v2. sort it before it becomes a problem

Like I said I'm not saying I don't want him in the squad I'll be happy if we manage to sign him after we get our other signings in first, I'm not desperate to see the back of Aguero either he's still one of the best strikers in world football when in form.Well I hope you have a nice day I can't wait till it's summer time

No, Cavani's record in CL knock outs is better.

I like how you were selective enough to put knockouts too because you know Sergio has more Champions League goals, that's with us always being handed groups of death and having to play Barca or Real when we do reach the knockout stages more often than not.No, Cavani's record in CL knock outs is better.
Sergio career total CL - 33 goals in 58 games - avg = 0.5689
Sergio City total CL - 25 goals in 41 games - avg = 0.6097
Cavani career total CL - 25 goals in 44 games - avg = 0.5681
Cavani PSG total CL - 20 goals in 36 games - avg = 0.5555
He's playing in a lower league domestically that's far less demanding, PSG have also had far more favourable group stages and knockout stages than us if I remember right, his stats aren't better nor is he better in any way shape or form(bar headers maybe) the sitters I've seen him miss make me dread to think how much worse our conversion rate would be with him upfront.
I don't think his control when he dropped to the middle was ever that good, and his decision making was often selfish (I.e poor) the difference btw then and now is that after making the poor decision of not passing on time, he'd simply blow by 2 defenders and smack it into the corner of the net.Do you not think that over the last few seasons the standard of his all round game has dropped , passing control of the ball and decision making?
Now, he's ability to blow by defenders of late seems slightly compromised. So we are seeing more or acknowledging more of the original bad decision.
For fuck sake man, just come out and say it. The facts suggests Aguero will not be an upgrade for PSG. He wouldn't. They are different types of strikers and are both close to the top of the pile.Aguero's champions league record is very poor for a player of his quality, particularly in the knock out rounds. If they're hoping for someone to drag them up a level there, he's not the guy to do it.
Aguero is better for us and Cavani is better for them. @Metalartin need to Argue Aguero is better is just a blue tinted position.
Aguero is great, and there are other great strikers too. Cavani being one of them. Aguero might be better in a vacuum (arguably), but he is clearly not better for PSG. And Cavani has been a better striker this year for PSG than Aguero has been for City.
So no Aguero is not and should not be an option for PSG.

For 90% of those PSG games he was on the wing though wasn't he?

Edinson 'Plays in Ligue 1' Cavani has been streets ahead of Aguero all season..It's not even close.
G.Jesus >= Mbappé >>> Aguero.
