A few stories doing the rounds today saying that Aguero wont be rushing his come back any time soon because he is worried about the World Cup. I hope this is just mischief making by those with an agenda.

It is my opinion that we really do need him at Klanfield in some capacity. For me he will be the difference in us becoming Champions or runners up this season. Maybe I am being selfish, but I think Club comes first. We pay his wages. I would not like to think that he might be recuperating, and taking his rehabilitation at a nice leisurely pace at City expense to prepare for the World Cup. A week Sunday will be a defining moment in our season. For me he simply has to play in that game. We cant keep relying on the bipolar Dzeko and out of form Negredo.

“With this recovery I am trying to do my best to be able to play again, but I cannot do it in a hurry,” Agüero told DirecTV.

“I do think to myself if something happens now, I will lose the rest of the Premier League season and the World Cup.”

He wont be a factor for the Liverpool game as even if hes physically fit, he wont be match fit.

Better to look at having him for the Everton and Palace games at the end of April, and in the meantime Edin and Jovetic can hold the fort. As for Negredo - time for a missing persons report.

God we miss his pace. I'm surprised Jovetic wasn't given a run out against the Arse and I presume he will get some game time against Southampton. He offers something different to Dzeko and Negredo. Pellegrini said Sergio would be ready at the end of last week then that he would work over the weekend and then we would see. No word on whether he's working fully with the squad but the silence suggests no.

Bit surprised that this news came out via US satellite channel and not the club. We seem to have been better this season at managing messages but this one seems a bit out of kilter with that.

Not sure if he is as quick as Neggers but he is far the better footballer than him and dzeko. I hope he isn't another sick note la jack Rodwell.

We rushed him at Spuds, looked what happend.

We rushed him at Barcelona, looked what happend.

We beat those scousers without him. We can do it again. The Crippled is fit too, so we can manage without him.

Don't see us getting anything but spanked at anfield without him up front relieving the pressure.

No team is scared of dzeko or negredo or jovetic because they are all gash at the minute. We need to hold Liverpool from the from to control the middle and isolate their front 3. Only agueros pace will give them second thoughts, they will laugh if he is not on the team sheet then attack the fuck out of us knowing it takes us 4 minutes to get into their third.

Would love to see Aguero at Anfield. For me it's a risk worth taking if he's 75% fit. His name on teamsheet would cause palpitations in dippers defence. Zabbadabba was right in saying we are his employers after all and if selected should play as soon as possible. Never an easy decision as if he missed the World cup because of a relapse he could get very pissed off. He does seem to get fit quickly though and in an ideal world he'd be eased in gently, but we are not in an ideal world and there are many games left. Failure to beat Saints then dippers and we can kiss goodbye to league

I suspect we'll see him against the Dippers and he's not being rushed back with an eye on that game.

His 45 minutes against Barca were probably him at 75% fit. Let's not do that again

I doubt he was at 75% v Barca. Probably 50% at best. Point is if we fuck up in next two games, Prems probably gone so it's worth the risk v dippers

He was fucked in the Spuds game due to having to play 90 minutes against Watford in the FACup.

Hope Jovetic isn't another sick note?

Interesting.

cheers

I don't think any player should be on the pitch unless they're 100% fit or just a bit of match sharpness away from being 100% fit. Aguero did absolutely nothing agains Barca at 50-75% fit and aggravated his injury in the process.
I'd rather wait three weeks and have him on top form than risk him. We are more than capable of beating Liverpool without him if we play with passion and tempo, we have to boss the game, soak up the inevitable pressure and take our chances when they come. I don't care what anyone says they will be bricking it now that they're expected to win and that might just be their undoing, we've crossed the line recently so know how to do it.
In the meantime we need a big win against The Saints.......Come on !!!!

he's been injured for the majority of his first season, similar to rodwell.

have you got a point to make or you always a cunt.

cheers.

aguero apparantly in the squad for saturday, according to stuart brennan probably on the bench.

Pellegrini said today that he won't be available this weekend, according to BBC:

Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero will miss his side's meeting with Southampton tomorrow, but he could be fit to return for the Blues' potentially title-influencing match at Liverpool eight days later.

The Argentinean has missed four games with a hamstring problem, but City manager Manuel Pellegrini is happy with the state of his player's fitness.

"For this week it is too soon for him to start playing because he just worked two days, but next week against Liverpool he will not have any problems," said Pellegrini.

Centre-back Matija Nastasic, who has been out for two months with a knee problem, also remains on the sidelines.

Kun has "comeback" twice this season already.The first time he was instantly superb but the 2nd time he wasn't at it at all.This time they are being very careful.Better to have him for the last 6 or so than risk him now and only get a couple.

Agreed Doug but the fact that he won't get any game time tomorrow means he probably won't play a full match against the dippers. Heck of a sub though for the final 30 minutes of a tight match.
