Can't remember his name but we were great defensively that season and Mancini definitely got rid. Next season we were still good defensively but noticeably not as good imo.

New Kompany Calf Injury?
- Thread starter Citizen Green
- Start date
Compromise with the player. International football and club football is a conflict of interest.I wouldn't, play the gib game nice and easy get some more game time into him,then a good rest before Liverpool, would you want vinny playing in boiling hot Greece 4/5 days before Liverpool ?

I would of course prefer vinny to retire from int football,but cant see it happening with the world cup coming up.Compromise with the player. International football and club football is a conflict of interest.
Kompany is someone who appears pretty passionate about what he does.
He sticks everything he has on the line for club and country. He played on for us in a poor season with a broken foot.
We have benefited massively from this attitude in our winning seasons.
He is quite clearly very proud of the efforts that he has made for his country and how he perceives problems if racial exclusion have diminished in parts due to the multi ethnicity of the Belgium team.
In these days of alienation of the North African community in Belgium, I am very happy for all that Kompany does and he is a credit to our club.

If we haven't made a comment all week I assume it'll be a matter of waiting for the pre match presser. Is that early afternoon?Any update yet

Pellegrini used to get dogs abuse on here for providing injury updates.

OUT INJURED !!!!! SSN just. Shit.Any update yet
yaya will come in at the holding midfield role just in front of the the 2 center backs like last season also we now have pace on both sides so we will not look that bad kompany is a walking time bomb and we just have to put up with it and we need stones to stand up for himself and show the talent he's got

That was in his final season I think wasn't it? Let's be honest, by that stage lots of people were just sick of him and it was a case of any stick to beat him with.Pellegrini used to get dogs abuse on here for providing injury updates.

He wouldn't leave Italy because of his son's problems.
That's what I thought, so I don't recall us making any particular effort to sign him.
The only centre back I've seen any reports of us actually trying to sign, is Jonny Fucking Evans.

Just a question here, but did Kolarov want out? I recognize many feel he's not a Pep player, was out of contract and he's certainly made his share of mistakes over the years (and been a periodic hero with that thunder foot of his) but his versatility seemed important as a squad player; he was at least adequate as a CB or LB as a fill-in.
If the alternative was Kolarov, JFE would suddenly become a truly great sigining.

Well if Vinny doesn't make it, we have Walker & Otamendi are upto speed due to being involved in the internationals.
But, Stones, who was in prime form previously, has done fuck all for weeks & the ohters are short of match practice.

OK but it's a pivotal game. We need to get off to a good start. Ajax were terrible v Utd, but this is the Champions League. it's the opening group game. Celtic are Celtic, but that was a very tough game.
You would rest Kompany in CL games. I would rest him at times in the season, but there will be league games at home where I would do that. Cup games, and maybe even CL games if we have the group sown up which is a possibility if we can win our opening two games.
It's a fair argument, I think as we've not added to Kompany we should be strong enough to top that group without him. Possibly away in Naples.
