Guardiola: Striker Aguero must continue his defensive duties
Posted Tuesday, August 23, 2016 by tribalfootball.com
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says key striker Sergio Aguero needs to keep up his good work not just at scoring goals but as the first line of defence.
"He knows we are here to help him create as many chances as possible and more chances to score goals," said Guardiola. "It's not enough to receive the ball from his team-mates, he has to help us in the first pressure and run a lot and help us a lot with movement.
"Until now he's doing it and, when that happens, you are involved in defensive tasks and the offensive. Football is a connection between what you have with the ball and without the ball.
"In the Sunderland game and the last two games he did it and we can't forget you need more training sessions."
