MANCHESTER -- Sergio Aguero is on the verge of becoming Manchester City's top goalscorer and Pep Guardiola joked the striker will "die scoring goals."
The Argentina international is just two goals from equalling the 78-year record of Eric Brook, who scored 177 goals for City in the 1930s.
A hat trick in Saturday's Premier League clash with bottom-of-the-table Crystal Palace on Saturday would see him break the record and his manager says it is just matter of time.
"He has to be proud and City has to be proud," said Guardiola. "Being a long time in one place and breaking the record is so fantastic.
