SERGIO AGUERO THE SPECIAL PLAYER

SERGIO AGUERO ;Man City's record-breaking striker

He is a world-class finisher but part of what makes him so special is his consistency - he has been scoring at an incredible rate for City for more than six seasons now, not just two or three, and even Harry Kane and Romelu Lukaku have not managed that yet.

Aguero's goal against Napoli on Wednesday saw him surpass Eric Brook's total of 177 goals in all competitions for City and become his club's top scorer with 178. There are many more to come - he has broken the record now, but I think he will go on to smash it.

Man City all-time top scorers

The 29-year-old Argentina international is already a City legend, but landmarks like this one cement his place in their history, and he deserves it. There is no doubt Aguero is also one of the best strikers of the entire Premier League era.

His scoring statistics in that competition alone - 129 goals in 188 appearances -

Aguero is also working harder now, because that is what Guardiola demands of everyone in his side. Again, that shows his ability to adapt his game.

Guardiola also wants team players and Aguero has demonstrated he can play that way, for example when he was clean through against Liverpool but chose to set up Gabriel Jesus instead of trying to score himself.

There is no way I would have passed it if I was in that position, but my guess is that Aguero was trying to show his manager that he has an unselfish side to him and was willing to help a young team-mate who is new to the Premier League.

I would describe him as a great goalscorer and also a scorer of great goals, like the brilliant run and finish that saw him complete his hat-trick against Watford in September.

We have seen him do that kind of thing so many times down the years and, like all the very top players, he is the man for the big occasion too.

His most memorable goal is the injury-time winner against QPR that secured City the Premier League title on the final day of the 2011-12 season, which sums up how he produces when it matters in the really important games.

Judging from the way he and the rest of his team have started the season, there will be more of those for him at City. If they are going to have more success this year, he will play a huge part in it.
