Shearer, who is the Premier League\u2019s all-time top scorer, notched the last of his 11 Premier League hat-tricks 20 years ago for the Magpies in September 1999.<\/p>\n

Aguero, City’s all-time top scorer with 220 goals in all competitions, also became the sixth player to register 200 goal involvements for a single Premier League side in the process while surpassing Tommy Johnson and Eric Brook as the club’s most prolific player in league fixtures.<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old’s dominant display against a thoroughly outplayed Chelsea marked his second treble in the space of a week, having inflicted similar damage upon Arsenal in City\u2019s 3-1 victory seven days earlier.<\/p>\n

It means he becomes just the fifth player to score back-to-back home hat-tricks in the Premier League and the first since Didier Drogba did so for Chelsea against Wigan and West Brom in 2010.<\/p>\n

With nine Premier League hat-tricks at the Etihad, Aguero has also set a record for the most trebles by a player at a single ground, breaking the record held by Thierry Henry at Highbury.<\/p>\n

Former Liverpool, Leeds and Manchester City striker Robbie Fowler is third on the hat-trick leaderboard with nine, while Tottenham’s Harry Kane (eight) is the only other active Premier League player to have notched more than three.<\/p>\n

Michael Owen and Thierry Henry finished their careers with eight apiece, one more than Wayne Rooney’s seven and two ahead of the six Luis Suarez managed for Liverpool.<\/p>\n

Two goals from Raheem Sterling and another from Ilkay Gundogan completed a comprehensive victory for Pep Guardiola\u2019s men at Etihad Stadium.<\/p>\n

It meant City returned to the top of the Premier League on goal difference ahead of Liverpool, albeit having played a game more.<\/p>\n

City\u2019s next three matches come in three different competitions, with League Two Newport County next up in the FA Cup fifth round on Saturday.<\/p>\n
