Man Utd news: I'd want Man City star Aguero over Manchester United ace Lukaku - Le Tissier
MATT LE TISSIER would sooner have Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero on his team than Manchester United hitman Romelu Lukaku.

Aguero and Lukaku came into the current campaign with the weight of expectation on their shoulders that they'd fire their teams to glory.
Aguero has netted nine times in 10 games for City so far this season and has become the club's all-time record goalscorer in the process.
Lukaku, meanwhile, has bagged 10 goals in 15 competitive appearances since joining United from Everton over the summer.
Aguero and Lukaku will be out to impress when City and United face Arsenal and Chelsea respectively on Sunday.
It was also incredibly tough to leave out Romelu Lukaku
Le Tissier has now revealed which of the two forwards he'd want on his side while picking a combined XI from that quartet of teams.
Le Tissier told Sky Sports: "Sergio Aguero is up top. He's been my favourite player in the Premier League for some while and breaking the City scoring record shows how he's done it over time.
"Marcus Rashford almost made my line-up and it was also incredibly tough to leave out Romelu Lukaku."

Le Tissier suggested City, United, Arsenal and Chelsea possess more quality among their attacking ranks than defensively.
"Thinking about this has shown how brilliant these sides are going forward because there was so many attacking players I wanted to fit in, but defensively it wasn't nearly as difficult," Le Tissier added.
City are currently top of the Premier League, with Jose Mourinho's United five points adrift of them in second.
Arsenal sit fifth, level on points with Antonio Conte's fourth-place Chelsea, ahead of Sunday's trip to Manchester.
