Sergio Aguero

Manchester City v Arsenal FC - Premier League

The most high profile name on this list is Manchester City legend Sergio Aguero. One of the very best in the world, Aguero has already scored 41 goals in 97 appearances for the Albiceleste.

As for club level, Sergio is Manchester City's all-time record goalscorer (252 and counting). Arguably the Premier League's best-ever foreign import, the Argentine has it all. He can score goals, provide assists, can help in the buildup, and despite his short height, still manages to score quite a few with his head too.

He joined Manchester City in 2011 and helped them win their first-ever Premier League title in his first season at the club. Scorer of undeniably the greatest goal in Manchester City's history (THAT title-winning goal against Queens Park Rangers), he is one of the greatest strikers of his generation. At the age of 31, he can still lead the line for Argentina for a few more years.
