Manchester City's Sergio Aguero: Brace in victory
Aguero scored twice, once from the spot, on four shots (three on target) in Saturday's 4-1 victory over Stoke City.
Analysis:
Aguero missed from the spot twice in City's mid-week tie against Steaua (but still managed a hat trick), but showed no ill-effects psychologically, calmly converting from 12-yards in the 27th minute to give City the lead. He would double City's advantage in the 36th minute on a nice bit of link-up play with Kevin De Bruyne. He now has six goals in three matches in all comps and has firmly established himself as the best striker in the Premier League when healthy (just don't tell Zlatan Ibrahimovic that).
