Shaka Hislop feels it's not Pep Guardiola's place to disrespect Tottenham and label them "the Harry Kane team." Janusz Michallik says not to read too much into Sergio Aguero's desire to have Leo Messi join Manchester City just yet. Stewart Robson explains why, unlike Paul Mariner, he has Lukaku over Aguero in his ranking of Premier League strikers.
Sergio Aguero was poised to return for Manchester City just over a fortnight after breaking a rib in a car accident.
Aguero, 29, was named among the substitutes as the Premier League leaders hosted Stoke at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
The striker has made a speedy recovery from injuries sustained when a taxi in which he was travelling, while enjoying a day off in Amsterdam, crashed into a post.
Aguero's return to fitness meant he missed just one City match, the victory at Chelsea on Sept. 30.

An initial prognosis suggested he could be out for up to four weeks, while his national team doctor was quoted saying he would be sidelined for six weeks.
Aguero went into the game just one short of equalling Eric Brook's City goalscoring record of 177, which had stood since 1939.
