#6 Sergio Aguero

Undoubtedly one of Manchester City's greatest ever players, Sergio Aguero will be looking to reassert himself as City's main man this season. After the arrival of Gabriel Jesus, Aguero has been relegated to the bench on certain occasions although the duo has started together under Pep Guardiola this season.

Quite simply put, Aguero when fit, is the best striker in the Premier League. Capable of jinking past defenders with ridiculous ease and an excellent finisher, the Argentine striker has in his 6-year stay at the Premier League has consistently scored more than 20 goals every season.

Even last season, the former Atletico Madrid man managed to grab an astonishing 33 goals in 45 appearances for the Citizens in all competitions. Whether Guardiola thinks Aguero suits his system or not, the Argentine striker is definitely one of the greatest strikers to have ever played in the Premier League era.
