FPL season comparisons – Sergio Aguero vs Gabriel Jesus
Man City's two primary forwards come under the radar here as we judge who had the better season from a Fantasy Premier League perspective out of Sergio Aguero (£11.9m) and Gabriel Jesus (£9.5m). Both strikers have predictably found the back of the net with regularity this season, but who has accrued the most FPL points?
Aguero has featured 22 times in the league for City this season, scoring 16 goals so far with four assists. When adding his 14 bonus points into the equation, Aguero has managed to accrue a whopping 124 FPL points, another hefty FPL return from the Argentinian.
Jesus has made two more appearances than Aguero, with 24 to his name. However, his numbers are not as high. A total of 10 goals, with five assists for the Brazilian has seen him gain 97 FPL points over the course of the season when you also add his nine bonus points into the mix.
Aguero is valued far higher than Jesus, with a £12.0m price compared to Jesus' £9.5m. Aguero makes up for that with a far higher appearance to points ratio. He is a premium asset that guarantees you points when he plays. With 27 FPL points more than Jesus, despite playing two games less, we have to plump for Aguero here.
Verdict: Sergio Aguero
