Sergio Aguero proved he is as undroppable as Manchester City are unstoppable right now.
The striker scored three of City’s six goals as they crushed Watford under a purple rampage of pure football, to move to the top of the Premier League table.




Aguero underlined his class and his quality with the hat-trick and an assist for Gabriel Jesus, while Nicolas Otamendi and Raheem Sterling added the rest.
Aguero could have left City if they signed Arsenal’s Alexis Sanchez during the transfer window, but he has not let that hold him back, scoring for the sixth time in six games. If anything it has spurred the 29-year-old on.
If City had not won their opening 10 games of last season and still concluded the campaign so disappointingly, it would be difficult not to tip them as title favourites.
When they get into their stride there is little that can stop them. Five against Liverpool, four against Feyenoord. Now 15 goals in the space of three games and eight days. Their opponents Watford have started the season under Marco Silva as one of the early surprises; eight points from four games and fourth in the table ahead of kick-off, with a chance to lead the top-flight for the first time since 1982.




Yet City were at full speed at Vicarage Road, three ahead by half-time with a haul that could have been double that and Aguero their traditional nemesis. His treble took his tally to nine goals in five games against them.
