However, if Guardiola's men have to move to Liverpool to become the first team for ten years to retain the Premier LeagueSergio Aguero is likely to be the main source of goals just like Argentina has been during the last seven seasons. Aguero was a Legend of the city from the moment he won the first club title in 44 years with virtually the last shot of sending the campaign in its first season.
But the 30-year-old now claims to be considered as one of the biggest imports of the Premier League, especially if he is the spearhead fourth title in eight years in England. Already firmly established as Best scorer of all time in the city, The hat trick of Aguero Sunday 3-1 win over Arsenal was his 14th for the club, his 10th in the league – just an all time record of Alan Shearer.
He also took his Premier League at 157, eighth on the list of all time and just 18 goals behind the only foreign player on this list, Thierry Henry who stands in fifth. The naked numbers underestimate the rating talent of Aguero when it really matters
In 63 games against the six big rivals in the Premier League, the former striker of Atletico Madrid scored 40 goals, 19 more than any other player in the same period – Harry Kane of Tottenham. Such a record would seem to make Aguero untouchable. However, this was really not the case at the beginning of Guardiola's reign, when the Catalan preferred the youth energy of Gabriel Jesus as he asked a lot more than goals from his attackers.
Even at the end of his career, rather than revolt, Aguero's is adapted and conquered Guardiola during the City title race with 100 points last season.
"I know my players when I work with them in the good times, bad times, how they react", said Guardiola after Aguero last goal superabundant against Arsenal.
"When first-year people said that I was not friends with Sergio, sometimes I played Gabriel or Raz (Raheem Sterling) as an attacker, that was my decision but I've always been delighted (with Aguero). Today, it is not only that he has scored three goals, but for how he tried, fought and worked backwards. He gave absolutely everything for the team. "
"Of course that's it does not have Gabriel or Bernardo's energy (Silva) but each player has its own quality. "
Even this season, Aguero played almost 600 minutes less in Premier League that Mohamed Salah from Liverpool – who runs the run for the boot of gold. However, as City continues a huge week in its title challenge at Everton on Wednesday, this rest at the beginning of the season could be the key to the champions keep the trophy it's important if Aguero is the coolest of the two for the title in the race.
