He was there as we'd run out of defenders I think.

I'm glad he didn't come on though tbh. I rate him very highly but he's a little 17 year old kid, & not one who I would be playing in the Prem at this stage. Not at fullback anyway.

Sure Ted but it must have been an exciting experience for him all the same. He's probably a couple of years away from first team squad potential. Hopefully he'll mature physically by then.

As much as he's a kid i'm sure a ten minute run out on the left side of midfield wouldn't have harmed him....

Must say I agree with this. At 4-1 the game was won. Who knows, he might even have got a goal or an assist and his confidence soared

If he meant that touch ( which he didn't) it would have been a good touch not a bad one.

Well, no because the ball was just about to get snatched up by the opposition. A faster player would have caught it, like say Mangala. But if Agüero was planning to lure the player into thinking he could take the ball from him, knowing full well that he, aguero, is faster than the sunderland player, it's a good ball.

I know Aguero's good, but he's only human. He didn't miscontrol the ball in order to lure out an opposition player (who he'd already worked out the pace of).
It was a slight, accidental miscontrol from which he recovered superbly.

Yeah probably. A girl can dream can't she?
