IAN LADYMAN: Erling Haaland is worth £250m, but he's not yet on Sergio Aguero's level - the Argentine was the man for the big moments... PLUS Steve Bruce has nothing left to prove

Part of Sergio Aguero’s brilliance was not that he scored lots of goals but really important ones.

When he made his debut for Manchester City as a 60th-minute substitute against Swansea City in August 2011, his team were a goal ahead. Aguero scored within eight minutes and then, three minutes later, created a tap-in for David Silva. At the death he scored again himself and a tight game had become an easy victory.

This was what Aguero did. All of the time. His numbers during his years at City were impressive enough.
