My teammates don’t pass to me, Aguero laments


Manchester City striker, Sergio Aguero, left the pitch unhappy about his teammates’ reluctance to pass the ball to him, during the final stages of their win against Borussia Monchengladbach in the Champions League.

Aguero replaced Bernardo Silva in the 75th minute, with Pep Guardiola’s side already leading 4-0 on aggregate.

However, the 32-year-old did not register a single shot on goal in 15 minutes on the pitch.

ESPN reports that Aguero expressed his dissatisfaction to a coach following the full-time whistle, saying: “No me pasan la pelota” which translates to “They don’t pass me the ball.”

It is believed that Riyad Mahrez was the main culprit, as he opted to shoot when presented with chances in and around the box in the closing stages.

The Algerian, who has been in prolific form, could not find the back of the net though, with his shots either off target or saved by Gladbach keeper, Yann Sommer.

Aguero has in the past week been linked with a free transfer to Barcelona this summer, with his contract at City expiring at the end of the season.
