[blue b4 the moon]

What a guy.

I'm still hoping he'll come back one day if all the stars align.

 

[dickie davies]

I didn’t realise Pellers and clueless were separated at birth

 

[Jezza11]

Here’s to you, Vincent Kompany

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Two words. Warrior, legend.

 

[Mr Partridge]

Still remember his debut against West Ham like it was yesterday. Excellent in midfield then dropped seamlessly into defence when Dunney went off injured. Could tell then we'd signed real quality.

Been a legend ever since.

 

[KS55]

A great signing and quite cheap.

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Quite cheap? 6 million was a steal!

 

[horlock_was_super]

Which one:

rags or Leicester.

Both things of beauty and both moments never to be forgotten.

 

[crossie]

I saw his debut. He didn’t play a single stray pass as DM. He was clearly a great player & caught the eye. It was the first game of the season and Hughes started Ched Evans ahead of Daniel Sturridge…

 

[oldius]

My favourite City player.

Was it West Ham? Genuinely thought his first game for us was against Chelsea? Or an I thinking of Robinho but Kompany played?

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Amazing signing, remember he played in midfield when we bought him at first, can't remember when he got moved to centre half but I do remember Tony on the Cheadle bus telling us he was never a centre back in a million years great judge Tony! Haha

 

[Mr Partridge]

Was it West Ham? Genuinely thought his first game for us was against Chelsea? Or an I thinking of Robinho but Kompany played?

Yeah first game was definitely West Ham. Chelsea was the first game after the takeover but Vinnie had joined a few weeks before.

 

[IrishBloodEnglishHeart]

Yeah first game was definitely West Ham. Chelsea was the first game after the takeover but Vinnie had joined a few weeks before.

Ah okay. I remember Vinnie launching someone about after they'd scored a free kick against Chelsea - think it was possibly Robinho's first game

 

[JOGAMIGMOG]

Doing great work as Bayern boss. 13th straight win equalling a record for whole of Europe. He has got to be a shoe-in for next City manager, hasn’t he?

 

[Buckshaw Blue]

Our next manager.

 

[Vienna_70]

A great signing and quite cheap.

One of our best-ever value for money signings

 

[Vienna_70]

Ah okay. I remember Vinnie launching someone about after they'd scored a free kick against Chelsea - think it was possibly Robinho's first game

Robinho scored a brilliant free-kick on his debut against Chelsea.

 

[Vienna_70]

Just to remove any doubt about the first team Vinnie played against:

Vincent Kompany - MCFC Players - Manchester City, Man City History - Bluemoon-MCFC
