Kompany injured again...

[worsleyweb]

Have they always trained on one though, maybe it's not so much the games, but the hours of training. I only say that because I read Bayern are blaming a training pitch for all their muscle injuries this year and are having it dug up and replaced.

Blame the tit we employed from Spurs - Dr hamstring

Surely the solution to finding a world class centre half to replace Kompany, is to get Mark Hughes to recommend an 'average' holding midfielder for us to buy, after which we'll drop him into defence. It's worked before?

seeing as our defensive record is so good with vinny in the team and shit-awful without him, i am leaning towards the premise that the back 4 just listen to vinny and his instruction when playing, and when training. without him they obviously dont have a scooby doo whats going on.

The problem we having him as our 1st choice number one defender, is that we just know he's going to go missing half the season, and it's so damned disruptive when he does. Whilst we have a mentality that we rely on Kompany, when he's not here, we go to pieces. We have to learn to live and function well, post-Kompany. In my view that means busting a gut to find a top replacement and demoting Kompany to a back up role as soon as we have.

I know that may sound harsh, but it's just too disruptive replying on him and then having him let us down (through no fault of his own mind) time and time again.

I wonder if he's any good in net? That way he could still Marshall the defence, keep his calfs relatively safe and solve our distribution problems from the goalkeeper. I hear Pep likes to play wacky formations and move players about, I think it's a win win.

Hate to say it but there is no come back and it's time to prepare life with out Vinny.

Maybe it's a Belgian thing. Happened to varmaleen too at Arsenal seemingly at the top of his game...

You have no idea if that's true or not.

I don't have the medical reports but it's not improving even with all the best treatment he recently had. Top that off with each day he ain't getting younger either.
