Hoddle: Man City striker Aguero best finisher in football

QPR coach Glenn Hoddle rates Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero the "best finisher" in the game.

Aguero had scored 17 goals in 18 appearances for Manuel Pellegrini's men going into Sunday's win at Southampton.

"He's the best finisher in the world," former Tottenham midfielder Hoddle said. "He's just above [Diego] Costa at this moment in time. Where would City be without him? They'd certainly be out of the Champions League.

"As a defender, you may think you're marking him, but you're not. He's in between defenders, it's so hard to mark."
