Sergio Aguero broke or equalled three different records – two Premier League landmarks and one club record – with his hat-trick on against Chelsea on Sunday.

By stroking home a second-half penalty, the Manchester City star equalled Alan Shearer’s record of 11 Premier League hat-tricks.

Against the beleaguered Blues, Aguero became only the sixth player to score or assist 200 goals for one club in the Premier League, joining Wayne Rooney, Ryan Giggs, Thierry Henry, Frank Lampard, and Steven Gerrard.

Aguero now sits in eighth place in the Premier League all-time top scorers list. Barring injury, he should move up to sixth before the end of the season:

1) Alan Shearer – 260 goals
2) Wayne Rooney – 208 goals
3) Andy Cole – 187 goals
4) Frank Lampard – 177 goals
5) Thierry Henry – 175 goals
6) Robbie Fowler – 163 goals
7) Jermain Defoe – 162 goals
8) Sergio Aguero – 160 goals
9) Michael Owen – 150 goals
10) Les Ferdinand – 149 goals

 

Goals per Premier League minute (minimum 50 appearances)

4) Thierry Henry – 175 goals at a rate of one every 132 minutes
