I will never understand the Aguero hype.

I'm really starting to think that I never will. I see all these people going on and on about how great Aguero is, how he's the best striker in the country by a mile, how he's world class, how he's one of the pl's best of all time and I just don't see it. I'd honestly only put him a little above an in form Daniel Sturridge.

Like what is he so good at? He's a good finisher yes, but ever top striker is a good finisher and his finishing is nothing special? Strength? No, he's nothing compared to Ibra or Costa in that. Heading? No. Dribbling? No. Hold up play? No. Creative? Nothing special. Why is it that Aguero is rated so highly, I just don't get it. I see people compare him to Suarez, but Suarez can do things Aguero can't even dream of doing and I don't even like Suarez that much.

No matter what, I just can't see it with Aguero. Can someone please explain to me what is so good about him? Because I just don't get it.

Feet dude think of everything you've seen of Sturridge at Liverpool. At his best, he is close to Aguero, don't you think?

Like I said I wish he was. The season when him and Suarez played together was amazing. But I've not seen him replicate that since Suarez left.

Aquero is in the tier above IMO.

Alright I've cooled down now.

I want to apologise to anyone who I was a little like mad too. I respect your opinion even if you disagree with me

I think you must be trying to wind people up. Watch this video of all his goals from last season and tell me what he doesn't have.

This is only his goals so it doesn't do his all round game justice but just from these goals he demonstrates his great explosive acceleration, agility, close control, awareness (especially in the box he's great at quickly getting his shots off), pace, movement, leap and obviously his finishing.

So what's he missing wahl? He has everything required to be a top striker and he's proven that he is one over a long period.

He's a fast finisher basically. He's not an all around striker who can hold up the ball and play with his back to goal or bring other team mates into play. That's what he lacks and what the best strikers in the world like Suarez Lewandowski Costa and Ibra can all do. I don't see anything aguero can do that Sturridge can't

That's just not true. You don't have to be tall to hold the ball up and he does it well. Would you say that Thierry Henry was just a "fast finisher" too?

Sturridge is also a very good player at his best but aguero's weak foot, agility and explosive acceleration are significantly better.
Aguero is probably the most similar player to messi so what do you say about messi?

Thierry Henry could do much more skilful things on the ball than Aguero can as can Messi. Those two are on a whole another couple of levels above Aguero.

Agueros agility and acceleration may be better than Sturridge but that doesn't make him a way better striker. I'd say sturridges finishing is better than Agueros, although you're right to say Agueros weak foot is better. theres not much between them at all
