City goalkeeper Joe Hart has hailed the brilliance of Sergio Aguero – although he claims his teammate is ‘useless’ in training.
City’s star striker Aguero was clinical in their 4 goal thumping of Tottenham on Saturday at the Ethiad. Aguero scored all the goals as the champions won 4-1 at home in the Barclays Premier League, taking his overall tally for the campaign to 10.
It also made the Argentine City’s record scorer in the Premier League with 61 and took him to 85 goals in 132 appearances for the club overall.
It was a clear reminder of the player’s abilities now that he has recovered from muscle injuries which have hampered during the latter stages of the last season and the World Cup.
‘That is just down to him, and you know that when it comes to games he is going to score, because he is that talented, that good a player.
‘He is a big-match player and deserves to be at a big club like this, scoring goals for these fans, and I can’t be positive enough about him. He deserves all the plaudits he gets.
‘Finishing-wise he is one of the best and his goals-to-games ratio in the Premier League is the best.’
Hart said: ‘He still has a lot of work to do. He is only young and hopefully, if we keep him fit, he will be pushing on.’
