Aguero definitely edges it so far, though – his four-goal demolition of Leicester recently has given his rival Aubameyang a lot of catching up to do! LAST FIVE SEASONS Aguero’s managed to outscore Auba in fewer games, and he’s created more goals for his team-mates, too. But the Argentina hero has never had a season as good PEA did last year – the ex-Dortmund…

TRENT SAYS: “I’ve never been involved in something like this, and I’m really pleased to be here.

Even though everything’s worked out, I still had an education to back me up!” TRENT SAYS: “I played footy until year nine, and then the academy said there was too much risk of injury. I used to watch my mates play and get jealous – especially when they left school at lunchtime for away games!” Trent Alexander-Arnold was supporting the fifth season of PlayStation Schools’ Cup, the biggest grassroots…
