First Striker – Sergio Aguero

In his last three matches, Sergio Aguero has netted five goals and added two assists. His form seems to be back after the Argentine was benched for the then in-form Gabriel Jesus. Aguero looks to be the man against in Manchester, while he produces for the team. His 23 goals in all competitions, shows his importance to Manchester City in all their matches, and will be expected to score more as the season goes on. He is a top-striker in Europe, and I cannot see anyone on Stoke touching Aguero’s spot in this line-up.
