Sergio Aguero - 2017/18 performances

[Prestwich_Blue]

38 is the current record for a single season, set by Tommy Johnson. He's going to beat that I'd say.

 

[buhz]

in 2018 scored more goals than the entire attackers back at the swamp

 

[domalino]

This is where he should be. He's getting served up chances by the best creators in the world, coached by the best manager in the world and he's finally capitalising on it since the start of 2018.

A striker of Aguero's calibre in this side should expect to be right at the top of the european scoring charts so its great to see him get up there finally. He should break 40 goals for the season for the first time too, which would be a great milestone.

This is where he should be ? Have you been asleep for past 6 and a half years,he has scored goals ,every season he's been with us,now he's proving you wrong,again,you try and skim over it by saying who he is coached by now,you talk some shit you,you were saying he should be gone a few weeks back,we are all fickle at times lad,but you are the champion on here without a shadow of a doubt

 

[Delphacito]

Less trying to dribble Aguero, more of the ‘one dribble max then shoot’ Aguero. No fucking about.

 

[quiet_riot]

Thought he was kept on about 20 mins too long last night - as he's our only striker at the moment, if the chance arises to give him a breather, we should snatch it.

How has he proven me wrong?

I've said all season he should be scoring more, and he's started scoring more. He's not proven me wrong at all, he's proven people like me who said he was under delivering right.

Let's get things straight, only a couple of his goals this calendar year have been spectacular, the other 11 or 12 are simple goals he's scoring now that he should have been scoring before, but for whatever reason was only getting about a third of them in the net. You can pretend that's not the case and he's always been performing at his best, or you can be thankful he's putting them away now and hope he keeps putting them away from here on in.

Because you have doubted his capabilities for a long time,players of this ilk you should keep the trap shut,as they have a funny way of driving the words back down the throat.

He's not this or not that,you and a few hanger ons have blasted it out on here on numerous occasions,time to go blah,blah,blah,but somewhere you will find an argument to say he is better on the wing or something bizarre along those lines.

Time for him to go was what you were suggesting,and one day he will,but not before answering a few critics before he does.

This is quite typical of your comments, because what you've done is completely invent my position on Aguero, I don't know why, but it's complete bullshit.

I've never suggested it was time for him to go, you've completely invented that.

I've never said he was done. You've completely invented that.

Feel free to look through my comments in this thread to check up on that, although I doubt you will because reality doesn't seem to be something you're interested in.

I've said he's out of form, I've said he's under performing, I've said he looks out of sorts, I've said he should be doing better.

All of that was true.

For long periods of Pep's time here he has fallen massively below his standards. For the last 3 months he's started scoring again.


What happens is some posters like you are so fucking rabid, so desperate to think they're better blues, or more loyal or whatever that you can't take justified criticism of your favourite players so you pretend he's still playing well when he's scored 6 league goals in 6 months like he did last season, or when he scored 6 goals from September to December this season.

No lad,you just don't like being made to look a tit,which is fair enough I suppose.

I'm no bigger blue than anyone on here,but I've watched enough City games in the last 37 plus years,and I also have a good idea of how fantastic a player is,and from what I have seen since 1981,he is by far the greatest ever striker to wear our shirt.

Rabid ? Yea I would say I'm pretty enthusiastic when it comes to City,I've invested enough over the years which has helped

Sometimes you just gotta hold your hand up

Are you going to hold your hand up and accept you've completely invented my position on Aguero? Because the only one who looks like a tit is the stupid twat claiming that people who wanted Aguero to play better actually "wanted him out".

I'll dig some of your quotes out,and we can take a view if you want ?

I think I will find more negative than positive chat,but yea go on I'll have a look,I will try to be balanced though,and may be able to add some plaudits off you as well,however we look at it though,we can both agree now,that your points will be masqueraded behind some stat no doubt eh ?

Go on then, look through this thread and find a comment where I've said Aguero needs to go or I've written him off.

 

[meeesh]

You only have to go back to December ffs,still fresh in the memory of another spat I had with you.

Here are 2 examples


Then you'd agree we're in a better position now for taking the painful decision to get rid of a beloved long term player who was past his peak.

I would question how reliable a goalscorer he is these days.

Just a few examples of the bile

I can't be arsed scrolling through more shite really,because next thing you will say is-But where have I said he should go ?

If you read your comments and digest them,to me it sounds as though you think we be better without him,and your stance has been roughly the same,so pretty consistent on him you have been

 

[domalino]

I would question how reliable a goalscorer he is these days. This is probably the heart of the problem Guardiola faces too.

2 goals in open play since September.

Last season he only scored 6 goals in nearly 6 months between September and March.

When he's on it, he's the best striker around, but you can't go months without scoring and be a reliable source of goals, and these days I'm not sure how often he's really on it

meeesh So the one comment you found was this one?

That's the most negative comment you found in 10 minutes of looking through my comments. A comment that says when he's on form he's the best striker in the world. That is your smoking gun negative comment FFS.

Odd, according to you I've been desperately touting that he is finished and needs to go...a comment on him being a streaky goalscorer doesn't really add up to that does it? And he is a streaky goalscorer these days, I don't think anyone can deny that. Perhaps you should keep digging?

Also the "We're in a better position now" comment was in reply to you using Joe Hart as a reason why we shouldn't get rid of Aguero. I didn't say we needed to let go of Aguero, I told you your dumb as fuck argument was just that.


Be a fucking grown up and admit you were wrong. Nowhere in this thread have I said Aguero is a) done or b) needs to go.

I didn't spend 10 minutes scrolling thrugh the rubbish you post,it would send me to sleep,remember those quotes-past his peak and you would question how reliable a goalscorer he is these days.

Well on that last one,don't worry yourself lad,he got 4 last Saturday and another last night

So to sum up this fun little exchange.

You looked, didn't find a negative comment. Found one where I said he's streaky but on form the best striker in the world, tried to pretend that was negative, and then gave up.

"holding your hands up" indeed. Fucking pathetic.

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

There's no doubt (not singling anyone out btw) that a bad game or two and some posters feel compelled to come on here and write him off. Like they have a hard-on for detecting the very point of his demise. And then he proves them wrong. Again.

You'd think they'd learn from previous experience and display a little more reticence, but they don't. They don't seem to be able to control this compulsion. I can only assume it's a combination of poor judgement, and an overwhelming urge for vindication, borne out of their own insecurities.

I'm sure if they keep rinsing and repeating they'll get it right eventually, which will doubtless assuage those insecurities and make themselves feel like big men for a couple of hours.

In the meantime I'll keep believing that our greatest ever striker, at 29 years of age, isn't quite finished yet.
