ALSO READ: FourFourTwo's top 100 Premier League players ever – with Henry at no.1Sergio Aguero is a remorseless goalscoring machine. In 260 Premier League appearances he has scored 180 goals, more than any other foreign player in the competition’s history. He overtook Thierry Henry with a hat-trick against Aston Villa in January, his 12th since joining Manchester City nine years ago, eclipsing Alan Shearer’s record in the process.By most metrics, Aguero is perhaps the best striker the Premier League has ever seen, powering City to four titles and multiple domestic trophies with his insatiable appetite for goals.

What would the Premier League do if American sports didn’t exist? Where would it go for its innovation and ideas, if the option just to imitate wasn't there?On Thursday, the league launched its Hall of Fame, which will welcome its first two charters members on the 19th March.From there, who knows? At the moment, all the league is willing to reveal is contained within a sparse press release. We’re yet to learn whether the Hall will be a physical place, whether it will curate artefacts and objects, or whether it will just be a metaphorical Hall – an idea rather than a room, a marketing concept rather than a genuine tribute.We do know that each inductee will receive their own...
Evertonians trudged out of the Emirates in their thousands last Sunday after witnessing their side’s latest agonising failure to secure a debut victory at a ground built in 2006, in the first of a series of incredibly challenging fixtures. Their mood could have been despondent, but it was not.After all, they had seen yet another defeat away at one of the ‘Big Six’. The Toffees haven’t won at Liverpool, Chelsea or Arsenal this century, and this attempt saw an early lead squandered, three soft goals conceded, and Gary Neville succinctly tweeting that Everton are “crap in big matches” and “shrink in nearly every big game”.I mean you haven’t won at arsenal for 24 years , you are crap in big...
