Aguero or Suarez

Interesting to see what Suarez's record is against City, Arsenal, Chelsea and United.

Aguero consistently bags against the big sides (scored against each of those this season alone), it's a close call.

One where Pool fans would go with Suarez, and City fans would go with Aguero - both equally justifiable.

As far as I can work out.

Suarez 6 from 19.
Aguero 9 from 16 (swapping City for Liverpool).

FWIW I think Suarez is more than capable of scoring against anyone. But he is totally dominant on a flat track.
 
Quite happy with Aguero.

Liverpool fans must wonder when the next incident involving Suarez is going to happen, the same as we were always wondering with Tevez and Sir Joseph of Barton.

Actually, that is silly. There is the factual question of who is better, and the emotional question of who do I want. I want Aguero, but Suarez is currently the better footballer.

Opinions like the above falls in the same category as rags who think Cleverly is one of the best CMs in the league. If I reckon correctly, we make fun of such dummies. So why be like them?

I can hold 2 separate ideas comfortably. 1, that I'd never swap Aguero for anyone other than Messi, and 2. That currently there is a better striker in the league called Suarez.

One does not negate the other

Well said. Only a moron would disagree with you.
 
Wouldn't even think of swapping Sergio for anyone.

I haven't really watched Suarez much this season but can't believe the amount of goals he's bagged at this stage considering his ban.

Don't forget Sergio hasn't reached his 'prime' yet, which is usually considered 27.

You can't really argue with Suarez' form atm, he's banging them in but he still strikes me as a bit of a "flat track bully". Maybe the stats will prove my perception wrong, and I'd be interesting in seeing them, but I can't remember him ever being brilliant against top opposition. Against Arsenal he was poor. He doesn't seem a big game player, at least not yet, whereas Kun most definitely is.

I wouldn't swap Aguero for anyone


...except Messi. But even then, Aguero is more than just a world class player for us City fans.

Or you could argue that if Aguero was MORE of a flat track bully then we'd have beaten Sunderland/Cardiff etc and be top of the league.

Nowt wrong with a flat track bully when you can't score against fucking Sunderland for the FOURTH year running.
 
This year Suarez goals against:
Sunderland, Palace, West Brom, Fulham, Norwich, West Ham then 1 against Everton and 2 against a Spurs side with a manager about to be sacked

Aguero:
Newcastle, 2 against the Rags, Everton, West Ham, Chelsea (crucial goal), Norwich, Spurs, West Brom, Southampton and Arsenal (only half a game)

So that's Aguero scoring against all of the current top 6 and Suarez only 1 - that says it all for me. (Spurs are not currently top 6)

It's not just about the number or type of goals, it's the importance and criticality. Aguero is head and shoulders above in this regard.

Aguero has also scored a number in the champs league this season, Suarez by contrast has only ever scored once in the champions league in his career. That is why this talk of Suarez is quite frankly ridiculous at the moment. He needs to do it for another two seasons and in the champs league to even be compared to Messi et al

Not really, too busy enjoying some of the best individual performances I've ever witnessed on an almost weekly basis to be worrying about things like that.

He's a lot calmer, a lot less frustrated this season. Basically looks happier playing football. It might be naive of me to think so but I don't think we'll see a repeat episode of his past indiscretions.

If you put all the perspective lacking sanctimonious nonsense aside that's been heavily demonstrated in this thread, it's a pretty tough call. Suarez is clearly the better player at the moment (can't imagine how some of you think Aguero is more complete, Suarez scores with both feet, his head and free kicks, works harder than anyone and is getting regular assists) but saying that, Aguero has been a huge player for you lot over the last few years and is undoubtedly one of the best strikers in the world.

I'd not swap Suarez for anyone purely due to sheer entertainment if nothing else. Aguero is a great player though, no 'but' needed for me to appreciate his ability on here.

Just because he has scored more goals doesn't mean he is the better all round footballer.

True. But Watching him suggests he is. He isn't just scoring goals, he is devastating in all other departments. Passing, decision making, movement, work rate and skill. Aguero is great, but there is nothing wrong with there being another player who is better.

See bold, you could have been describing Aguero here.....

I refer to my earlier posts, Aguero has simply scored more goals against better teams at critical times and for a longer period. Suarez has only scored once in the Champions league.

That's not to decry the outstanding form he is in currently but I would rather have super Sergio. Happy to let the media promote Suarez however as it's more likely that he will be the one bought by Real Madrid.
 
Suarez us wonderful, but can he do it at the very top level? Still remains to be seen, and as Sergio has proven this...it's a no brainer for me
 
A few weeks ago I would have said Aguero without hesitation. However, after witnessing Suarez's mind-blowing individual performance against Spurs I've been forced to re-consider. On present form he's got to be one of the best 3 players in the world.

Spurs, who were playing like a lower table team in disarray you mean? One swallow doesn't make a summer as someone once said, and as others have rightly said, Aguero delivers against top sides, not just lower half teams, and has added scoring with his head to his extensive repetoire.
I might be forced to eat my words tonight, and he will probably score, but as I've previously said, when all teams have been played twice, and the season is over, then we will see.
Soldado was being written off a few weeks ago, but a brace in the Europa, and some fine assists for Adebeyor ( another maligned striker) has made people think again and re-evaluate, just goes to show, how quick things can change, as you said, a few weeks ago, you'd tip Aguero, why? consistency no doubt, but a one scililating game against a team in tatters ( the previously tipped title contenders until we decimated them, I may add) suddenly means Saurez is suddenly the best thing since xxxxx, from one game? its a moot point, Aguero is injured for another 4-6 weeks.
Also Aguero has scored 19 goals, lest you forget, 13 Prem, and 6 in the CL, which just goes to underline my point of his all round consistency, come back after the WC and we will see how both have faired, (if he hasn't already been purchased by Madrid )
 
If Suarez played for us I guarantee everyone who has said Aguero is the better player would be saying Suarez. Not saying I think he is, but it's hard getting an impartial view from a fan talking about one of his own. Pretty much every 'neutral' agrees Suarez is arguably the most in form player in the world at this moment, unfortunately for us Sergio is injured (again) so can't be be considered.
