Anyone wanting to watch Sergio's interview.
English seems to have improved greatly, also looks like those studs have left a nasty looking mark on his wrist.
 
No words can describe this magnificent footballer,I will be heartbroken when is time comes to leave,best striker this club and the premier league as ever seen,I salute you King Kun.
 
Brilliant today. As well as he's played since before the crash and once again he's showing off his resilience to continue to succeed in spite of prolonged doubts.


However I am going to be miserably pragmatic and make it clear that I believe that there are certain games Aguero fits us perfectly and certain ones he doesn't. Jesus could not do what Aguero did today, he may never be able to; Aguero is pretty special at his peak.
But there will be more days like Liverpool away where Aguero is a bad fit (and Jesus isn't).


I say this because only a few pages ago did we have posters calling for his head. We need to realise that as a lone striker he can't be totally relied upon to deliver when it matters throughout the course of a whole season against all sorts of opposition (neither can Jesus btw).
This may all be moot however, as in functional a strike pairing he'll ALWAYS be good enough.


Yet the only thing Jesus has been better than Aguero at this season is pressing

Aguero scoring more
better chance conversion
creating more
taking players on
better pass completion
Whether Aguero is better than Jesus or not is one thing and fair debate going either way, but Jesus does a little more than pressing.
 
• This was the third time Aguero has scored 4+ goals in a single Premier League match, more than any other player in the competition's history.
• Aguero is the fourth player to score 20+ goals in four consecutive Premier League campaigns - after Alan Shearer, Thierry Henry (five) and Harry Kane.
 
Game of two halves. Sensational for 45 mins.

I'd agree with that, but it's encouraging. He was bad last week and even outside the goals in that second half he was much better all round.

Also he's been hesitating before shooting so much recently - like on the build up to Leicester goal, but after halftime it's like he just stopped second guessing and let fly. If he keeps that up he'll score a ton, because that hesitation to pull the trigger has cost us a lot of goals this season (not just from him though).

Feels like the 4 day break did him a lot of good.

First half was poor i thought too. Movement not good enough and trying to run through brick walls.

2nd half he was great. Like Sergio from 3/4 years ago. Great strike for the 4th.

I hope we rest him against Wigan. A fresh Sergio for the cup final then Arsenal and Chelsea seem to make sense to me
 
Unreal performance by Kun. I don't go into match threads anymore but I'm sure it was full of moans up until we re-took the lead.

That fourth goal was incredible. He's hit it right in the direction of the keeper, and has still hit it so perfectly that Schmeichel stood no chance.

28 goals now this season is incredible for it being the tenth of February. Would absolutely love it if he got to 40.
 
Kane has 2 more goals in what is approx 5 extra games.

Aguero has been as good as any striker in the PL for me.

Only KDB, Salah and Silva have been better players in the Premier League for me.

Get rid off him, you must be mad!!
 
His fourth reminded me a lot of one Tevez scored for us, against Arsenal I think. Looked like he surely must be closed down but breaks the bar.
 
I hate to use it as an example but his 4th was very similar to the Rooney breakout goal vs Arsenal back in 2002.
