Tottenham Hotspur football team manager Mauricio Pochettino has admitted that watching Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero play is like listening to Mozart.
Pochettino would reportedly attempt to stop the City super-striker from attempting to compose another of his symphonies at the Etihad in Saturday's game. Aguero has already netted in six of his nine appearances this season, on top of the 28 goals he scored as City clinched the title last season.
And fellow Argentine Pochettino has confessed to being left enchanted. He said that when Aguero plays it is like classical music in his head, adding that it is unbelievable, The Mirror rejected.
Pochettino said that he thinks Aguero is the best striker in the world, adding that he loves the Argentine. He also said that it is like Mozart, seriously it is positive and it is not Beethoven as he is too crazy.
Pochettino also said that Tottenham needs to make it difficult for Aguero, to make the game difficult and to avoid the possibilities of the striker from scoring.
Aguero, together with Yaya Toure, netted late in the 2-0 win at Aston Villa just before the international break to lift champions City into second behind Chelsea. Pochettino believes his countryman is currently the leading striker on Planet Football.
Pochettino said that for him, Aguero is the best, adding that Lionel Messi is not a striker, Ronaldo is not a striker, but Aguero is a striker. He added that everything one has to have as a striker, Aguero has.
