I don't just think his work rate has been good his ability in midfield has seen his tenacity win the ball and link up play well. Yes sometimes his ball into the box isn't of the quality required but I've seen him get into good positions to put an early ball into the box and there has literally nobody in there to receive it, he has had to check back and play a ball backwards to start again with momentum lost - must be frustrating for him. He's an easy target to criticize and some don't look beyond what may seem to be the obvious without looking at the bigger picture.
For those looking to suggest that Sergio might not be making runs across the box when navas has the ball in these positions because the end product won't be good enough then think again as it holds no water. As often our sole striker he should be in these positions instead of playing as deep as he has so often done this season.
I do look at the bigger picture and what you say about Aguero not making them runs is fair but that still doesn't take away from the fact that Navas' end product is lacking. I sympathise with him when he doesn't have options but even when he does he fucks it up far too often for my liking.
Just in regards Aguero dropping deep, that happens more often when Yaya is not on the pitch as he doesn't see enough of the ball when the big man is not there to play them incisive passes from back to front.
