Sergio Agüero - The Atomic Flea of Blues

The Premier League has the best strikers on the planet. If it’s Spain, Germany, France, or Italy, none of the leagues can measure up to England’s quality and strength in depth.

Something else tips the offset in Aguero’s favour. He has scored 43 times in the Premier League since joining Manchester City and he is averaging a goal at regular intervals of 121.4 minutes. He appears certain he’s set to score each time he goes out onto the pitch.

Before this season, he averaged a goal every 2.2 games throughout his career, whereas so far this campaign he’s nearly a goal a game. His shot accuracy has additionally expanded from 50 percent last season, to 67 percent this campaign.

He isn’t only about goals, however. This season, in the Premier League alone, he assisted four goals and made 20 chances for others. He’s comfortable linking the play and playing as the point of convergence of attack.

Aguero is a striker who blends a high work-rate with Skill, selflessness and goals. The way that he has now discovered the ideal thwart for his abilities, and a manager who plays a system that’s suited to his game, may as well mean Manchester City benefit from considerably more goals from him this season.

His performance against Chelsea was a fine illustration of his goal scoring qualifications. Chelsea had kept him reasonably tranquil for a large portion of the match, yet just after half-time he got himself a yard of space and rifled a left-footed shot into the close top corner. It was a brilliant bit of natural play that carried an objective out of nothing.

City have generally played a 4-2-2-2 formation this season—an attacking framework that has seen them score more than enough goals.

Negredo’s presence has helped Aguero. Whereas playing with Carlos Tevez saw two players with similar instincts, Aguero and Negredo complement each other. The Spaniard does much of the work outside the box, allowing Aguero to concentrate on scoring goals. He has scored eight league goals in 10 league games and already had five in four in the Champions League.

Manuel Pellegrini put forth a strong expression about Sergio Agüero two weeks back, demanding that the Manchester City forward was one of the "top five players on the planet". Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have since a long time ago planted their banners at the highest point of World football’s hierarchy, while Zlatan Ibrahimovic has developed as the following best thing as of late at Paris St-Germain. Four and five? Gareth Bale’s price tag warrants his claims, with Franck Ribéry, Robin van Persie, Robert Lewandowski and Neymar all having their merits, but with Agüero continuing his incredible run in front of goal against CSKA Moscow, Pellegrini may have made a valid point about the 25-year-old.
