"Sergio Aguero and Man City are match made in heaven"
Argentinian legend Diego Maradona would appear to be fast becoming a Manchester City fan after he praised son-in-law Sergio Aguero following his stunning hat trick at the weekend.
Maradona's affection for the light blue shirt was first instilled during his time spent at Napoli and is being carried on by Aguero, who continues to shine in England following his big-money move from Atletico Madrid.
Talking to journalists ahead of his first official game in charge of UAE outfit Al Wasl, a glowing Maradona took time out to discuss matters in Manchester, saying City is the perfect club for the 23-year-old - who's married to his daughter, Giannina - to excel at.
'I said Aguero needed a team that would support him so he can play in the Champions League and can play in very important championships,' the 50-year-old explained.
'It was not the case with Atletico Madrid. People from Atletico Madrid said I was a fool. I told them that foolish person wasn't me because Aguero is now playing for a team... Manchester City... that will fight for everything.
'Now Aguero is playing in a place that he deserves.'
Fast turning into a legend in his own right, Aguero was composed and modest following the big win over Wigan.
Speaking to CityTV he said: 'It was great to get the three goals but the most important thing is that we keep winning.
'A hat trick is good but for me the most important goal was the first one, as
we needed to score.'
Fittingly, Aguero will line up against his father-in-law's old club Napoli in the Champions League on Wednesday night, and it's expected the ever charismatic Maradona will be a very interested onlooker.
Sergio Aguero and Man City are.......

Rafa-jack,
Please change your profile to show who you really support, because it sure ain't Liverpool! I have been on this site for over a month, and being on holiday the last 2 weeks have been on the here more than usual. In this time this is the 1st time I have seen a comment from you, namely because it is rare I visit other teams boards (where you appear to be, habitually). Frankly, I'm ashamed to say your a fellow red and only hope your profile page is a wind up just like yourself. You're embarrasing and the mould of a poster that makes me, and a lot of others in the search of constructive debate with a bit of meat, 'float' about football forums.
