#3. City’s over-dependence on Aguero and Raheem Sterling:
In spite of having a problem of plenty in their defence and midfield, City do not have too many options in their attack. Sergio Aguero has scored 24 goals in 31 matches this season, and continues to be the talisman for City. Raheem Sterling is not far behind and has 15 goals and 10 assists from matches this season. However, City have usually suffered when either of them has not played.
The likes of Mahrez and Leroy Sane are quality players but have not been quite able to win matches for City on a regular basis. Sterling rescued City against Schalke by scoring a brace in Gelsenkirchen and came off the bench to help them win against Watford last night.
Gabriel Jesus, Aguero’s understudy at City, has scored only 16 goals from 32 matches this season and is yet to become a full-fledged match-winner for them. As a result, City are over-reliant on Aguero and Sterling to win matches for them consistently.
