Sergio Aguero has never really been known for his sense of humour outside the Manchester City dressing room but with the Manchester derby on the horizon this week he's shown that he can shake off the pressure with ease.

United travel to the Eithad Stadium on Thursday night with hopes of still being able to crack the top four, and there's a danger that the hosts will be in a decidedly different mindset to their opponents.

City will be looking to bounce back from their 2-0 defeat to Arsenal in the FA Cup semi-final over the weekend, while United's league form continued its momentum thanks to a 2-0 win over Burnley.

Only one place and one point separate the two sides in the table, and there is still a lot for both sides to play for when they line up on Thursday evening.

So with a tense and potentially fiery encounter on the horizon, now would be the perfect (and by perfect we mean the worst) time to do some promo work for Puma.

The German sports brand have designed a new pair of boots that the Argentine will wear against United and sent someone along to ask him a few questions for the fans while he modeled his new weapons.

One of the questions he was asked concerned which of Manchester United's players he would most like to play alongside at City.

With the likes of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Marcus Rashford, Ander Herrera and Paul Pogba being the kind of players who could slot into any side in the Premier League, surely it would prove to be a tough decision for him.

But apparently not. Instead of naming one of the names above, the 28-year-old instead chose nobody by repeatedly insisting: "I prefer no one. I prefer no."

Burn! Take that, United! Even though City's own season hasn't been an unmitigated success, their players still find the time to rip on their counterparts across the city.

However, form often goes out the window during derby games and Aguero will want to be careful that his words don't come back to haunt him.

In their past five meetings, City has only won one game, drawing another one and losing three.

But that one win did come this season, with Kelechi Iheanacho and Kevin de Bruyne outdoing Zlatan Ibrahimovic's effort in the reverse fixture at Old Trafford.
