Thegoalmac understands that Southampton manager Ronald Koeman has challenged his defence to outwit Sergio Aguero after likening the Manchester City striker to Brazil great Romario.
The Argentina star has been in sensational form for City so far this
season and he leads the Premier League scoring charts with 12 goals from
as many games.
Can they be able to stop him tomorrow? We will all have to wait and see.
Koeman, whose Southampton side host City on Sunday, has joined Aguero's
long list of admirers, comparing him to former Brazil and Barcelona
star Romario.
"The best player to compare to Aguero is
Romario," he told reporters. "I played with Romario. Sometimes you think
he's sleeping, then in one split second he's scoring. It's a big
quality.
"That means a lot of concentration for defenders. He's always fast, always on the line of sight. That's his best quality.
"That's the nicest part of football; you can't do everything to stop a
player. It's one of the best players, the player who makes the
difference between winning and not winning for City.
"They have a strong squad, good players, but in the last few games Aguero makes the difference, scoring and creating.
"He's creating opportunities by himself. We have a strong defence; it's a nice challenge for our defenders.
"You can't give them one second, no attention. You need that attention during 90-95 minutes."
