Friday morning saw Manchester City announce that striker Sergio Aguero is going to be a major part of their long term plans. This despite his having to take a back seat to Gabriel Jesus at certain times over the course of the last two seasons. The club announced a new contract extension for the 30-year-old Argentine that will keep him at the Club until 2021.

“I am happy for this additional year,” Aguero told the club’s online web channel.  “My idea was being here for 10 years. I’ve been here for seven years, it’s going to be 10 when the contract expires. Hopefully, that’s going to happen. This was the main reason I signed.”

The reigning Premier League Champions, Manchester City, have already dropped two points this season by virtue of their draw with Wolverhampton Wolves last week. However, today’s showing at home versus Newcastle United is kind of what you were looking and hoping for if you’re a City supporter.

The Cityzens beat Newcastle 2-1 in a match where they absolutely dominated all the major statistics, but unfortunately failed to appropriately kill off the game. The 2-1 final score doesn’t do justice to just how much they thoroughly thrashed the Magpies on Saturday, but manager Pep Guardiola would have obviously liked to have seen his side finish off more chances and win by a wider margin.
