He's in the top 3 with Shearer and Henry imo.
They seem to praise him enough on the BBC Live pages. Seen an article about him as well on the BBC.
Is he underrated? Shearer had him as the all time best overseas player, so you could say overrated.
He deserves all the accolades as he has been consistently doing this for 6 / 7 years now. One of the best strikers to grace this league and certainly in the top 5 all time
The fact that Kane gets mentioned over augero is enough to show how deluded the press are

To be fair Shearer has always rated Aguero as the best player in the PL but there are 100s of pundits out there who don’t even mention his name
I’ve said/thought this before. Obviously everyone knows he’s great but I think he’ll only truely be appreciated and put on a pedestal as a generational talent once he leaves the PL.
this stat can be added to the article, crazy:
Since making his PL debut in Aug 2011, Sergio Aguero has scored 43 goals in 64 apps against big six opponents – that’s 22 more goals than any other player in this period!
For me it just goes to show how good Wayne Rooney is
160 goals in 8 seasons is utterly phenomenal especially considering the injuries he’s had aswell
That record against the top 6 is just ridiculous
It helps if you have class players and unlimited funds around him.
Not taking anything away from his ability. Outstanding striker.
Aguero
Kane
Firminho
Lacazette
Current top 4 strikers in the league
If a right winger breaks the PL goal scoring record despite all the other strikers trying then yes they are going to fawn over him. Doing the business again this season.
Kane has been outstanding for the last 4 seasons so against justified.
Aguero has always been class and highly rated.

Kane has been very good but someone like Augero destroys teams, especially the big boys.
Yes it helps playing with KDB and both Silva's but the guy is just phenomenal against the top teams
Aguero is most ex-pro pundits choice as the striker they would least like to defend against. The best striker in the PL at the moment. Without the injuries he would have had another 30+ goals over the seasons.
Aguero is in the very top bracket of strikers in prem history he’s a phenomenal player and his record attests to that.
It’s not open to interpretation it’s a fact.
I was thinking when I posted on here yesterday that Aguero may seem underrated as while everyone knows how good he is, for one reason or other he tends to get usurped by a player having just as good a season or Aguero has maybe had injury problems that means he can’t get as many goals as his peers. His goal:game record has always been outstanding but this tweet made me want to reiterate that thought:
Sergio Agüero has won just one Golden Boot (2014/15) in his seven full seasons in the Premier League.
He’s also never been in team of the year or win player of the month. This plays part into the reason why others / I say he is underrated, while he goes about scoring 3 goals every 4 games for 7 seasons straight it is almost expected of him. When another player does it transiently, be it over a month or a season, they tend to get a bit more of the limelight.
2 hat tricks in a week, I'd say if he doesn't get player of the month this month then something's broken.
Augero is a system striker. The team is really built around him. Its questionable whether he would be as effective at Real Madrid or Barca. I think its obvious why he doesn't get the respect that strikers like Shearer, Henry, Drogba do!

Silly comment.
Not at all silly. Why isn't Andy Cole considered the best ever? Terrific record and has actually won a Champions league.
Augero is one of the best strikers in and around the box. And the players he is surrounded by are some of the most expensive ever accumulated. They spoon feed him chances every game. You can't compare him with Shearer, Henry or Drogba. They were complete players.
Bit of a strange comment.. Aguero has played in City teams that have been dominant and ones that have been not (pretty much like the strikers you mentioned bar Shearer) and certainly for Atletico was not surrounded by quality. Aguero has always been capable of scoring all types of goals, you just don’t understand his style of play if you were to compare him with Andy Cole.

Lol Andy Cole is nowhere near the strikers named which is why his name isn’t brought up. As for Henry, Shearer, Drogba. Yea Henry is the greatest player in PL history so coming 2nd go him is nothing to be ashamed of. Drogba, fantastic player and man for the big occasion but look at his record in England compared to Aguero and it’s not even close. Shearer just wasn’t THAT good, he knew it himself, it’s why he turned down United
Well that’s just bullshite
