I just don't think anyone will ever get close to putting together a run like he did in the second half of the 11/12 season.
From 1st January - the end of the season he scored 44 goals and 16 assists in 33 games. Ended the season with 73 goals and 33 assists in 60 games. 10 hattricks. In one season.
Just think about that. It's like KDB's best season of assists combined with Aguero's 2 best scoring seasons.
And the thing is, that completely undersells how brilliant he was. He was creating the goals himself, he could have had 20 more assists if his teammates had put away tap ins he'd created for them, he was beating 2 or 3 players every time he got the ball. He couldn't be tackled, his passing was absolutely perfect.
There's never been anything like it and there never will be again.
Have you not seen Rashford?
