Messi is still the world's best player... maybe I can be No 2! says Sergio-Aguero

Sergio Aguero believes his Argentina team-mate Lionel Messi is still the best player in the world.
The Manchester City striker has ambitions to become one of football's top players but says that, for now, the number one spot is firmly in the grasp of his countryman.
Aguero and Messi first played together as teenagers and have since become two of the most feared attackers in the game.

Messi has won the Ballon d'Or award three years in a row but Cristiano Ronaldo and Franck Ribery are front-runners to pick up the trophy next January.
'Messi is a very important person to me,' Aguero told BBC Match of the Day Magazine.
'Lionel is the best footballer in the world, but to me we are friends first, always. We started playing together when we were just 17 years old.
'He was always going to be the best, always. He’s the number one and maybe I can be number two. Not yet though, I’m doing OK but I have to keep training hard and playing well.'

Man City have had the most prolific attack in the Premier League this season, scoring 34 goals in total, and Aguero has been their in-form striker.
Since appointing David Moyes as manager, Man United have struggled for form, winning only half of their league games, and Aguero does not regard the local rivals as City's main competitors.
'For me it’s Chelsea,' said the 25-year-old when asked about City's biggest title rival.
'But there are four teams who can challenge – us, Chelsea, Liverpool and Man United. It’s always complicated when it comes to United. But for me it’s Chelsea and maybe Liverpool. And Arsenal! Now they’re very good.'
