10 years, 1 month agoIs going without Aguero over the next few a make or break decision? He's a differential now but surely most will jump on him from next week but with his injury record and the amount of games to play can you even count on him to start all the league games? MP was pretty regretful last time he played Aguero when he didn't have too and he got hurt again shortly after. I'm guessing he'll be even more careful this time around and try to save Aguero for the big/tough games meaning he's at risk of seeing reduced mins for the games that would normally bring the most points. Knowing all that would you ever risk handing him the (c)? 12 mil for someone you'll never (c) seems a little crazy or am I crazy?
