Why Sergio Aguero is the best striker in the Premier League

Brace against Villa takes Argentinian striker on to 21 goals for the season

On Saturday, Sergio Aguero scored a brace to take his tally to 16 Premier League goals this season. Manchester City ran riot against relegation-threatened Aston Villa as Raheem Sterling and Yaya Toure also got their names on the scoresheet in a 4-0 victory that saw Manuel Pellegrini’s side keep pace at the top of the table.

The Argentina international has now scored nine Premier League goals in 2016 – more than any other player in the top flight. On his day, Aguero is almost unstoppable and he could be the difference for Manchester City as they bid to pile the pressure on Leicester, Tottenham and Arsenal. City aren’t a million miles behind though, and many punters who don’t want to stake their own money may advantage of Boylesports.com’s free bets.

With just ten matches remaining, City’s window of opportunity to close the gap at the top is shrinking, however they still have a real chance of advancing to the latter stages of the Champions League this season. As of March 6th, Pellegrini’s men are priced at 12/1 with Boylesports to win Europe’s elite club competition and you can keep up with all of the latest news and information regarding the tournament via Bookies.com.

In years gone by, Aguero has always ranked as one of the best but he may now stand alone as the single greatest striker in the top flight. City have struggled at times this season yet the Argentine just has a unique ability to transform a negative situation into a positive outcome. Without a doubt, he must rank alongside the likes of Karim Benzema, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Gonzalo Higuain when discussing the best forwards on the planet.

While he isn’t quite in Luis Suarez’s league, Aguero remains a sublime talent. The former Atletico Madrid star is set to prosper under Pep Guardiola at the Etihad Stadium and City will be a real force next season. In fact, many punters will be registering at Boylesports.com and using free bets on Guardiola’s new side to win the title at the first time of asking in 2017.

Aguero’s movement, finishing ability and agile quickness are three of his greatest traits and nobody in the top flight can rival him in any of these sectors. He has a phenomenal understanding with David Silva and Yaya Toure in City’s flourishing attack. When they’re on-song, they’re the best trio in the Premier League and the little Argentine is the focal point of what is one of the best attacking units on the planet.
