Aguero shrugs off suggestions to `go down more` by saying `he’s bad at diving`

London – Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero has said that he is really bad at diving and therefore unwilling to risk a yellow card by going down too easily, according to reports.

According to SportsMole.co.uk, the Argentine international has gained a reputation for staying on his feet since arriving in England from Atletico Madrid in 2011.

He said that it is funny because many people have told him that he needs to go down more, adding that his reaction is that it would be an automatic yellow card because he is really bad at it.

He added that his character and style of play means he should carry on and stay on his feet as much as possible, and even if he falls he would get up again to go after the ball because that is the way he is.

Aguero has been in fine form this season, netting 18 in 19 appearances across all competitions, the report said.
