Manchester City Fans have been reacting to a post on Twitter, which relays a reports that claims Sergio Aguero was unhappy with the lack of times he was passed to by his team-mates during the final stages of their win against Borussia Monchengladbach in the Champions League.
The Argentine club legend replaced Bernardo Silva in the 75th minute, but did not register a shot on goal in the final 15 minutes of the match with Pep Guardiola’s side coasting through to the quarter-finals with a 4-0 lead on aggregate.
According to ESPN, the 32-year-old 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.’
The report details that Riyad Mahrez in particular purposefully not pass to the club’s all time leading goal scorer, and opted to shoot when presented with chances in and around the box in the closing stages.
It would be hard to comprehend why his teammates would purposefully not pass to the club’s all time leading goal scorer.
His future has been the subject of speculation recently as his contract with City expiring at the end of the season, with Barcelona reportedly interested in signing the striker.
In reaction to the report shared on Twitter, many Sky Blues have been expressing their thoughts and opinions.
Can you really blame him for complaining though? He’s spot on.

Fernandinho was the only one trying to help him.
That’s not fair.
You get mahrez and Sterling upfront they will shoot themselves without passing to anyone even if they miss 99% of the time
