Re: Sergio Aguero
For me he is a long way from being match fit, every match of the WC has pretty much shown that. He looks to me to be still carrying an injury and you can see that in the way he's playing. He doesn't have that explosive pace we know he has and its almost like he's holding back when hes playing.
I think he needs at least a month off and possibly more, then brought back in the right controlled way. If we rush him back then we could be risking his entire season. We have to have faith in Jovetic, Dzeko and Negredo and allow Kun the time he needs to get back to his best.
goater1978 said:A full pre season is not needed. Most players finish in may and than have about 7/8 weeks off. They require a full pre season to get themselves match fit.
Sergio on the other hand has been training and playing competitive football all summer so although he may be tired he will be pretty much match fit. A 3 week holiday now is not going to put him so out of shape that he needs a full pre season to get match fit.
I expect him to start against Newcastle.
