Big hand’s pointing to the No.10

-

You can practicall­y set your watch by the Argentine ace’s goal record.

Only once this season has he gone even TWO starts on the trot without finding the net.

After blanking on his last run out, the time is ripe for the City legend to strike.

The price won’t knock your socks off, but on his stats there could still be a bit of ding-dong left in the Evens (Betfair) about Aguero ‘anytime goalscorer’.

The 10/11 (Lads, Coral) High Street best is still good enough to play this afternoon (4.30pm).

Arsenal’s record against big-six clubs this season is a fairly middling W2 D5 L4 – though those numbers are skewed by the four draws and a win against Chelsea.

They have blanked in four of those 11 ‘big six’ games, and kept three clean sheets.

It’s the Gunners defensive fragility, as much as their habitual dithering up front, that leaves them looking clear second best on paper.

This is a Manchester City side who have already scored more Premier League goals this season than Arsenal managed in the whole of 11 of the last 12 campaigns.

But City’s FA Cup defeat at Wigan was ONE of the joys of ‘scorer’ punting is latching on to a player who might just be coming up on the bookies’ blind side.

It never lasts long — like a first love or a six-pack of miniature pork pies — but while it does, it’s an unforgetta­ble time of sweet golden pastry that goes lovely with a little swipe of mustard.

It’s happening for Chelsea’s Willian (left) now. He’s shining as a threat, and is worth a 10/1 (Bet365) each-way first scorer punt at Old Trafford if he starts.
