Aguero injured

Deja vu this thread once again. Claims that he’s finished will be proven wrong as they have been the multiple other times it’s been said on here.
The injuries are always a concern, his age makes it even more so, but, once he’s back on the pitch and doing what he does best the voices will die down and he’ll be lauded as the best in the business once again.
He needs replacing soon, no arguments there, and ideally we’d have brought somebody in this season to challenge. I’ve no doubts whatsoever though that his story isn’t over and he’s plenty of glorious moments left in him.

Hope so.

I also hope we have a striker in mind to replace him.

I just hope subconsciously he doesn't now take his foot off the gas because of fear of further injury given his age. I think he purposely runs a bit slower now because of this. (I may be wrong).
 
Lord Savior is back. Hopefully no more injuries. His presence will be great and beneficial

Yep, I’m inclined to believe we have somebody lined up who can fill his huge boots but a deal can’t be done just yet for one reason or another.
That’s why we are waiting I think. It’s going to be a big one and wasting money on a short term fix makes no sense, hence the reason we are willing to go with what we have.
Could well be wrong, mind, but it’s what I’m leaning towards.

It would make sense in every respect.We clearly aren't just doing nothing.

Disgraceful having spent over £400,000 000 on defenders.

We have **STILL** even now have not brought in a 20 + Goals a season striker.Just to replace players gone.

Yet Tixi seemingly would have had no trouble mustering up £100,000 000 for 34 year old Messi.

Lets be honest this Man has been an abject failure as DOF.

His job was to make transitional seasons a thing of the past, redundant.

Sourcing and replacing aging players well in advance.

Look at the state of us ffs.

Said it yesterday if it had not been for all Mancini signings ,the last few years of success would not have happened.Now they have all aged,and moved on.We are relying solely on Tixi/Pep signings. And they look a million miles away from those players.

Well you live up to your user name. Last season we scored 149 goals in all competitions, one of the highest totals in English football history just behind our own records in 2014, 2018 and 2019. Three of the team scored over 20 goals including Sterling who got 31. You have been watching the fake news media too much. No way are you a City fan.

Come on now that is just ridiculous. How can we blame players for our lack of transfer activity because they have set a bar that is difficult to fill or because they won't apparently just do the right thing and go? (which seems to be what people are asking for) We offered them renewals, don't forget that.

It is not ridiculous. As I said we treat our players properly and Sergio decides when he leaves. The problem is that we won’t be paying £100 million plus for a forward to come in and play second fiddle.

It’s not about the player, it is how the club operates. We have a tendency to keep hold of our best a little too long.

All I am saying is that the big name Sergio replacement won’t happen until he has gone. The lack of a clinical finisher is all too evident at present and always rears it’s head when Sergio is injured.

Soo good to see the man back training.

And is any good, like who for instance?

That's the big question. I would have said Cavani as he's always caused us problems but the figures the rags are supposed to be paying are eye watering.

We normally create a fair few chances even if we play badly so even an average striker should do a job.

Personally I hope we're not thinking of Mbappe, who is reported to be leaving PSG next summer? He's got a bad attitude, don't trust him.

You say an average striker should do a job, but those chances we create and miss are missed by far from average players, in Sterling Jesus and including Aguero sometimes.

I know that what I meant was a striker with a reasonable rate of hitting the net in a team that doesn't create as much as we do. We're talking short term back up, not world class first choice as one wouldn't come here as back up if world class. Once Aguero and Jesus are fit it isn't too much of a problem. I still think we need a more physical alternative even when they are fit, maybe Delap will do a job.
