Kompany

Barney Ronay in the Graun..

"But Kompany noticeably immobile at this level these days, a single huge stone Easter Island head stumbling around on legs that have all the snap and spring of a pair of bamboo garden poles"



Beautiful...

He has been an immense player for them tbf, will be harder to replace than many.

City are letting him go this summer. Meanwhile United have given new contracts to useless @#%&!s like Smalling, Jones and Young. Shows where the two clubs are at. They’ll probably sign De Ligt now

Amazing player and man

Probably will make a very good manager in due course.

Hi Roy

Would take him on a free.

He bought his home town club in 2013 when they were in financial difficulty... Still putting money into it. I've been there, it's small but well run

Sure I read that we wanted him before he went to City?

Edit - was a few years before but he wanted to finish his A levels.

Sky saying he’ll become player manager at Anderlecht.

Remember watching anderlecht at Parkhead when he was around 17 and it was De Ligt style obvious how good he was. Dirty dirty bastard to boot, one that got away for me.

His old fella mayor of Belgium ?

Brilliant player. Clearly been past it the last year or two, but a big loss for City nonetheless. Done a lot of good things in the community around Manchester, so he's alright as far as I'm concerned.
If only they signed unlikeable shite like Smalling and Jones 😡

even though he's a blue, i've never understood the hatred some united fans have for him because he seems like a likeable bloke and as far as modern footballers go, he also seems to have a brain.

less hatable than most of the @#%&!s playing as defenders for united too.

Be a waste of a huge head if he didn't.

Yep, could never hate him even though he played for them. Making fun of his head is fair game tho

Does lots of almost under radar local charity work. His dad is a big red I think. Crucial signing for them, could have been so different...
