What's going on with him??

I've just looked on his instagram and it looks like he's back home?

When's he allowed to play?

He's just done a full season too, so he will have his feet up for a bit.

Yep also his family are very religious so he's probably been allowed to stay their in Brazil for Christmas to celebrate with them before heading back here to start with us.

Can't begrudge the lady that

Trying to think of other Brazilians who've played a full season then come to the premier league in January? Anyone?

Any word on when he is joining up with the squad. Would be good if he had 7-10 days full training before the Everton game.

Hopefully he will offer our attack something different and unknown to the opposition

It will be good just for Aguero to have some competition.

He's clearly not his sharpest right now but he also knows he's a guaranteed starter.

In the past he was competing with Tevez, Dzeko etc. who all could all score goals.

Pep does not seem keen to start Iheanacho so Aguero has no threat to his place.

Even the best players need competition.

He might have changed his mind and decided he's better off staying in Brazil ??

He's flying in early this morning. Has a flight from Brazil about 2-3am Pep said so our time be mid-morning when he gets here. Probably watch the match and then start training with us this week. Expect him to be part of the squad for Spurs game no earlier IMO.

Tbh I am somewhat disappointed that he is not already here. The deal was done ages ago he already had a rest after the season so I see no reason whatsoever why he wasn't in MCR ready to train yesterday morning

1st January he became our player. But he has turned up a day late I grant you!

He could train with us as soon as his season was over.

He's probably been given time to be with his family for Christmas as this is a massive move for him.

If we had wanted we could have arranged for him to train here, after his own season finished? We are certainly not rushing him.

He just played a full season. Probably good to get a rest before coming here.
