Aguero yearns for another title
Date published: 08 May 2015
MANCHESTER City striker Sergio Aguero says he would trade the possibility of a highly-prized Premier League Golden Boot win for a successful title defence instead.
The Argentinian’s superb winner against Tottenham last Sunday took him to 22 league goals for the season – two ahead of his nearest rival Harry Kane. It was also his 28th in all competitions – just two shy of the 30 he achieved in 2011-12, with his 30th that season coming against Sunday’s opponents QPR. Two more against Chris Ramsey’s relegation-threatened side would see history repeating itself a little.
But Aguero said: “I’d rather be competing for the top position of the Premier League. I always say goals are worth more when they let us make great achievements as a team. But that’s no longer a possibility, so I hope I keep doing things right in these last three games so we can reach the best
position possible and so I can be the top goal-scorer this season.”
