Ronald Koeman questions Sergio Aguero's mental strength

Ronald Koeman suggests that Sergio Aguero may be facing some sort of mental block when on penalty duty, having missed four already this season for club and country.

Everton manager Ronald Koeman has questioned whether Sergio Aguero has the correct state of mind to take penalty kicks after his latest miss for Manchester City.

The Argentina international's effort from 12 yards out was stopped by Toffees keeper Maarten Stekelenburg in Saturday's 1-1 draw at the Etihad Stadium.

Aguero, who had earlier saw Kevin De Bruyne fluff his lines from the spot, has now missed four of his own this term for club and country, which Koeman believes could be down to some sort of mental block.

"To miss two penalties, maybe it is a little bit of a mental question," he told reporters. "Maybe for Aguero. I don't know, because it's not the first time that he's missed."

Aguero has scored 11 goals in nine appearances for City in all competitions this season, but none in his last three outings.
