Man Utd news: Romelu Lukaku is better than Sergio Aguero, says Stewart Robson

That is the view of ESPN FC pundit and former Arsenal midfielder Stewart Robson.

Lukaku is the Premier League’s leading scorer after seven games this season, with seven goals.

Aguero is one behind him on six, with Harry Kane and Alvaro Morata level on the same amount.

Robson was asked to pick his top three strikers in the Premier League and left out Aguero.

At the moment, yes I would have Lukaku over Aguero

He says he would rather have Manchester United's Lukaku in his team at the moment than the Argentinian.

“At the moment I wouldn’t have Aguero in there,” Robson said of the Manchester City star.

“Aguero’s a great player but if you look at Harry Kane, I think he’s the all-round centre-forward. 

“I think Lukaku’s technique isn’t great but he’s scoring goals and is always a threat when the ball comes into the box.

“At the moment, yes (I would have Lukaku over Aguero). 

“If I was the manager at the moment, the way that Lukaku can score goals out of nothing, the way he can run in behind, the way he can win balls in the box. 

Sergio Aguero, I think he’s a great player, does he work hard enough? 

“I’d still want people to close the ball down and do the things that Pep Guardiola wants him to do, which he’s not always doing. So I would still go with Lukaku.”
