There is a strong case for either of Aguero or Jesus to become a prime contender for the Golden Boot. Pep Guardiola possesses attacking riches unlike any other team in the land with the likes of Kevin De Bruyne, David Silva, Leroy Sane, Raheem Sterling and Bernardo Silva to name a few.

If we consider new full-backs, Kyle Walker and Benjamin Mendy, then the attack-minded nature of the squad can be understood. All these players point to only one thing, more goals in the side. Thus, the prime beneficiaries will be the strikers, Jesus and Aguero, depending on who nails the spot.

Aguero is the deadliest marksman in the Premier League and has been so since his arrival in 2011 with 122 league goals. On the other hand, 20-year old Jesus is a hot commodity and is the preferred striker for Pep. Thus, there is a healthy competition between the two and the winner will benefit from the premium service coming in from around.

On adding the individual brilliance of both players to the quality support, there is no doubt the winner of their battle will be a contender for the Golden Boot. In case Pep decides to go ahead with both of them starting, then one cannot discard the possibility of both of them fighting for the award as well.
