“God only knows what size pants Agüero wears”

For several weeks, Manchester City had to play without a center forward. Injuries are plaguing every team in a season that has started relentlessly. So much so that even Solskjaer, Klopp and Guardiola have joined forces to publicly complain to the Premier League bosses.

Klopp lost this Sunday in the match between the two (1-1) to Trent Alexander-Arnold and Guardiola was down to Mendy, Fernandinho and Agüero with Gabriel Jesus back to have nine again and also with a goal.

Since he injured his knee, Agüero has been practically unprecedented. This season they have only 178 minutes in three games against Arsenal (65), Porto and West Ham (45). The Argentine finished without a goal in both Premier matches but he did score in the Champions League. Now, a new injury, this time in the thigh, keeps him away from the pitch.

After the Liverpool game and in the absence of more forwards, Roy Keane, a former United player and now a commentator on Sky Sports, analyzed Kun's situation and blamed his injuries on a possible overweight. “My problem with Agüero is that when he came back he looked overweight. God only knows what size of pants he is wearing. It seemed heavy. Sometimes you come out of injury and it can be difficult to run. Typically, it takes players two to three weeks to regain that speed. I was worried when he came back because he looked really overweight. It is difficult to catch up but you have to try not to gain kilos, “he said in the microphones.
