Agüero and Negredo have emerged as one of the most formidable attacking pairs in the English Premier League, contributing significantly to Manchester City’s historic qualification for the knockout stages of the Champions League. The duo’s performance earned praise from the Manchester Evening News, which declared them the new best attacking pair in the Premier League, surpassing other famous partnerships like SAS (Suarez/Sturridge) of Liverpool and RR (Rooney, Robin van Persie) of Manchester United.
Teammate Samir Nasri shares this sentiment, highlighting that the contrasting characteristics of Agüero and Negredo actually enhance their partnership. Nasri believes that their differences, with one being quick and agile while the other is a powerful goal scorer, make them the best attacking pair in his opinion.
“Negredo and Agüero complement each other because one is small and quick while the other is a beast who can keep the ball and score goals. […] For me, they are the best,” Nasri expressed to Men Sport.
While the duo has already made a significant impact, Nasri acknowledges that there is still a long road ahead in both the Premier League and the Champions League. The coming matches will provide ample opportunities for Agüero and Negredo to further solidify their status as the best attacking pair in the league.
