(Reuters) - Sergio Aguero ended a stressful month by scoring in the 3-0 win over Burnley that earned him a place in the Manchester City record books, proving fellow striker Gabriel Jesus still has a long way to go if he wants to depose the Argentine hitman.

Jesus has been in blistering form this season, particularly excelling over the past few weeks while Aguero was sidelined with a broken rib sustained in a car accident in Amsterdam. Three goals and an assist in that time provided proof that the 20-year-old Brazilian is more than capable of leading the line for Pep Guardiola's men.
