Penalty Taker

[Pablo ZZZ Peroni]

Aguero's problem has been in CL and not PL. In the Champions League he has scored 8 and missed 4. Also there were the couple missed in a CL qualifier.

In the league there is absolute no reason to take him off them. His record is good and holds up against any other player from Big 6 teams.

Scored/missed last 3 seasons (16/17 - 18/19) in the league from Big 6 teams:

Milner 11-1
Kane 11-2
Aguero 10-1
Hazard 8-1
Pogba 7-3 (18/19 only)
Aubameyang 3-1 (18/19 only)

Aguero all-time Premier league is 24-4 which compares well to the likes of Kane 18-3. Balotelli is 23-5 in league games England/France/Italy.

Goals are the lifeblood of mainline strikers i.e Aguero and Kane. Aguero continues to take them for me unless it goes completely tits up. And for selfish reasons I'd like to see him continue to beat up City and PL goalscoring records. Pretty sure he'd like to as well and helps with his overall confidence.

In their careers and excluding penalty shootouts, KDB & Gundogan have only taken 3 penalties each and Bernardo and Sane 0. KDB of course missed his only City penalty and it was shit. So a pretty much non-existent sample size irrespective of how well they might strike the ball.

Aguero rarely hits them well, gets away with a lot.

Less than 80% is not brilliant

for me a lot of it is between the ears

I think you're right there.

Pep was asked about it on Friday and said "penalty is here" whilst pointing to his bald head so it seems he agrees :)

when the level is of the highest standard..i think it is.
How many epl goals have you??

Penalties were never my strong point, as is with some players. getting stats out to judge players is harsh. especially Serg, imo.

actually, in any other test ....you are right. but here are some facts on football......with all the millions playing it globally, no one has got 100% ever at the top level.

charley adams, and alexander from burnley were the only players i recall for being near that.

What idiotic rationale that is.

 

[ali benarbia's studs]

What idiotic rationale that is.

Gundogan if he’s on the pitch
