Would be the ideal situation for all parties. He's a few years away from retirement yet and when fit he's still a phenomenal player that fits into our style well and above all else a leader who can up the game of everyone else around him in big games when that leadership is needed.
At the same time, his injury record means he's no longer a key figure and therefore he can't be a top earner for the balance of the squad wage hierarchy. Kompany comes across as a realist, he knows he can't play every a game and we need somebodywith experience in the game and with the style of play who is willing to play backup who also has the quality our team and style demands, thats an almost impossible set of requirements to meet but kompany fits them all, we would be mental to allow him to leave and bring in somebody else who will fall short in at least one of the qualities.
Nobody wants to see vinny go, vinny doesnt want to go,I see this as the biggest no brainer going. A year by year rolling contract from now on until somebody decides it's no longer mutually beneficial.
