Aguero is a better technical player than Tevez & a better finisher imo but so far on average, in his alround game, hasn't performed anywhere near Tevez' level from last season. It's been masked by the quality of the team & the moments of sheer brilliance he has produced but on the whole Aguero hasn't actually played that well in quite a few games. The difference is; we needed Tevez desperately last season. This season the others have stepped up a level. If you look at Aguero's 1st half performance v the rags for example, he stank the place out but nobody noticed because we were doing a job on them.
A fully fit/focused Tevez would have been fantastic in this team & played as much as anybody, especially whilst Aguero settles in.
It's a gret pity that he's decided to be an arsehole rather than do his job.
Agreed. Aguerro often seems to be right on the periphery of games whereas Tevez was always at the heart of them. The other thing about Tevez is that he wasn't amazingly quick, strong or technical but he had enough of everything to ensure he was truly world class.
That's the worst thing about this whole saga, we've lost a genuine world class player thorough no fault of our own.
