Vincent Kompany:
"Football is so intense you don't have time to sit back and look at what you have achieved."
"I'm an adopted Mancunian. This city has grown on me. I have a wife from Manchester and have three kids who think they are more Mancuniuan than anything else, which is a problem I need to address! "
"I will say it loud and clear: at Manchester City, it is all about what you choose to look at. If you look at the money spent on players, you will only ever see that side of City. If you look at the bigger plan, which is investment in the community, facilities, and youth teams, you realise there is heart and soul in this club."
"Being a successful team is maybe not enough. It's about setting a standard, not just for ourselves but also for the youth that is coming through at Manchester City. "
"We can't always wait on the government to sort out all issues. I think they set policies, they set the rules, but we all have a duty to help as much as we can."
"You are not guaranteed to be part of that story if you don't perform."
"Everyone in Manchester in general has a positive mindset."
"Once I finish playing, I'm still a Manchester City player for the rest of my life. That won't change."
