Sergio Aguero - 2016/17 performances

[BlueAnorak]

I don't think Pep trusts him - especially to hold the ball up or put a real shift in.

Maybe Pep is upset because Aguero played for Argentina when he had injury but insisted to play.

"I'm never going to be as good as Messi because I don't work hard enough and I take ages to get going after every little injury."?

That is so close to the truth it stings.

Why? It was a tactical change. People read into things was too much. I'm sure he will be back in the team for Southampton.

I'm sure he will.

But the fact remains that for the biggest fixture he was left out.

Was him being left out, for tactical reasons or not, a vote of confidence?

 

[MacD]

Not like he put much of a shift in when he came on either. I specifically watched him to see if he would work his balls off or have a sulk. In my opinion it was the latter

Lewandowski 15/16 - 8 tackles, 6 interceptions
Aguero 15/16 - 12 tackles, 6 interceptions

Didn't ever drop Robbie the pressing machine though did he

Aubameyang-Aguero-G.Jesus frontline needed next season..We can't defend anyway.

The worst deal Sergio gets on here is deluded City fans comparing him to Messi and Suarez as if he can be on their level. He hasn't got anywhere near the natural touch, skill and vision of Suarez and no player in the world has anywhere near Messi's ability obviously. What he is though is an absolutely amazing striker with a fantastic goal scoring record. Make the chances and he'll continue to score shitloads but get off his back and don't suddenly expect him to completely change his style now.

Suarez isn't looking that good

Aguero is not as nimble and quick as the player that came from Atletico but when he's on song he is brilliant. Hope we get to see the real Aguero again soon. I don't think he is 100% fit at the moment.

Pressing is not just tackling or intercepting.

And - Pep did similar at Bayern with just playing one of Müller and Lewandowski in a lot of the away matches in the CL.
It was somehow understandable that he will not play with 2 wingers, KdB, Silva and Agüero.
