Manchester City's Sergio Agüero set to become even better says manager Roberto Mancini
By Mark Ogden[LNB]1:34AM BST 16 Aug 2011[LNB]Comments[LNB] Agüero, a £35 million signing from Atlético Madrid, made an immediate impact after replacing midfielder Nigel de Jong as a 59th-minute substitute. [LNB]The striker scored his first City goal on 68 minutes before teeing up David Silva three minutes later. Agüero's injury-time goal, a 30-yard shot beyond the helpless Swansea goalkeeper, Michel Vorm, brought the crowd to their feet and Mancini later revealed his prize asset was not fully fit. [LNB]'I wasn't surprised because I know Agüero very well,' Mancini said. 'But he is still not 100 per cent and has only worked one week with the team. He needs to improve his fitness, but he also needs to score goals. [LNB]'He has scored a lot of goals in Spain and Argentina, but he played in the Copa America just over 20 days ago, so he needs to recover. [LNB]'He's not tired, but he needs to recover. He needs another two or three weeks to be one hundred per cent. But he is a fantastic striker and will be a fantastic player for us.'[LNB]Related Articles
