Sergio Aguero leaves City after 10 years

[jimharri]

Dizziness is setting in

Feel for sergio so much , wanted him to stay fit

It was always going to be a long shot, given his last 2-3 seasons with us. I'd like to see him retire now, rather than watch him struggling along, going from one injury to another. He doesn't deserve to finish his career like that. Remember him for what he was, not what he is now.

That's a sentimental position. And I'm fine with it. But as a matter of productivity, we did release him a year late.

He was on a 5 year contract, it was illegal to release him a year ago.

 

[WestGorton]

If I was him and if I wanted to eventually go home I would mutually terminate the contract and go to Independiente. Play on a less demanding scalle.

Aguero is my all time favourite player and I feel desperately sorry for him. His career seems to be fizzling out and he does not deserve that at all.

If I put my ruthless head on, I think the club did the right thing. I'd loved to have kept him on, but - as ever - the club show unerring judgement on players. We could no longer rely on him to be fit. As good as he is, he can't play when he is injured which is most of the time now.

I hope he can play for a decent chunk of the season, but he needs to think about what his body is saying to him. I hope when he does retire, it's at the top and not after another injury ravaged season.

If I was Sergio I’d have gone straight to the US. He should have done a reverse of the Frank Arrangement and started playing in New York last year. Or joined Beckhams Circus

Sadly I see Sergio is out for 10 weeks with a calf problem. Maybe there was more to his departure?

 

[JULES]

His body is done. I know people weren't happy about him leaving but he would have spent most of the year on the treatment table. Not sure where his career goes after his stint at Barca as I doubt many would want him. Maybe back to Argentina?

I believe he was quoted as saying he wanted, at some time, to play for independiente again, his original club

It was.

I recall the thread on here blues were flapping about him saying it to an Argentine radio station after he signed a contract extension.

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

Gutted for Sergio but he was never the answer to Barca's many, many problems, and that was before Messi was out!

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Really sad for him but does go to show the club more than likely made the correct decision (and that the idiotic gnashing of teeth from half a dozen on here calling Pep/City all sorts was rather silly).

Yep!
