Sergio Agüero comes out of retirement!

[aguero93:20]

Apparently he’s been declared fit to play despite his heart condition and is going to play for Barcelona de Guayaquil.

Despite seeming like a cheap knockoff Barcelona they are actually Ecuador’s best club and often contenders in the Libertadores.

Sergio ‘Kun’ Agüero signs for Barcelona de Guayaquil

The Argentinian forward retired due to health problems in 2021 but has now been declared fit to play.

Only him, Bell, Silva and maybe Kev in the argument.

Only If you are taking our history starting in 1968 possibly.

I'll go for 1887 and still pick Kun Kun as one of the greatest ever along with Yaya, Silva, the Honey Monster Dunne, Lake, Tevez, De Bruyne, Hinch, Distin, Bernardo, Sterling, Walker...

The list is long, but we only have 4 stands which is why I’ve. Ever liked the idea of naming stands after players.

68-70 and 2010- are consistently the richest parts of our history. Sporadic success only prior to that.
The players I've mentioned all had a shout to be truly world leaders in their position.
Not sure such as Peter Doherty was regarded that highly but global comparisons were not as easy to make back then.
Do you want to make a case for someone I've omitted?

Bert Trautman always gets a mention from many, I’m sure others would have their suggestions from periods other than the two you mention. Whatevever though as we have ony 3 stands available I’m sure if we started naming them all after players it would cause more controvery than it’s worth. Then what happens in a few years if say Haaland breaks all the records and score a c/l final winning hat hat trick ,do we start changing stand names ?
At least with statues we can put them all around the ground.

From what I learned from my Grandad and dad Peter Doherty is the best player we've ever had and they,between them,saw the whole spectrum of greats.

If they all had statues then we could fill the empty seats

Trautman has the legend of playing on with a broken neck. Aguero will always go down in history as scoring *that* goal, and with the health troubles he’s had gives him another argument for a stand

I’d wait a while until he’s definitely completely retired/ out of the game though, at least. Potentially he could go into coaching etc so he’s got many years to go.

Good luck at Guayaquil, Kun. Pick up a trophy on another continent, and then if your health is good enough come and have one last spell in Europe
