Kompany training on his own - jogging

[Phil1]

It's called being realistic. Happened over and over again last season. Every time we thought he is back he gets injured again. Cannot rely on him anymore

Ahh, the old "being realistic" stance, even though nothing coming out of the club backs up your view.

"Disgusting", "shocking". Some really should get out more.

Eh? The club does not have to come out and tell me that he is injury prone and cannot be relied on anymore.

If the club are doing everything in their power to get him fit then I don't think it's cut and dried that he can't be relied upon anymore.
He's had an injury hit 18 months. There are countless examples of players recovering and performing to their high standards after similar times out injured.
Saying he couldn't be relied upon last season would be fair. Going forwards its just a guess.

Hopefully we don't rush him back

To be honest (and sad to say this) but I don't think it much matters. I have zero confidence in him remaining fit whatever we do. We have to accept that Vincent cannot be relied upon as being our leading centre back. Whatever games we get out of him should be considered a bonus.

In 2012/13 we played 52 games so he played just over 70%
In 2013/14 we played 57 games so he played around 65%
In 2014/15 we played 51 games so he played around 65%
Last season we played 59 games so 37% of games.

Even ignoring last season, in the previous 3 seasons he's missing 1 game in 3. For a central defender (who's also the captain) I'd say that's injury prone.

Well done you then, I would suggest not all of those games you have been quick to highlight he has missed due to injury, but is there any point arguing in favour of our captain and legend when even somebody like yourself has been quick enough to stick your fucking knife in.

Not sure why you are so keen to prove how injury prone he is, do you get pleasure from it or something ?

I must be fucking stupid in the head for trying to defend our players, bad enough fending off wankers at work without having to do it on a City site.

It kind of makes me sad to see how it is now, a break from here may be in order :(

Don't get on your high horse. I'm just quoting figures mate.

I'd love see a fully fit Kompany playing every game for us and not every game he missed was an injury. But most of them were and let's remember that this club legend went off to play for his national team against club advice when he clearly wasn't fit to do so and by doing so missed another shitload of games for us. I've also been critical of our medical staff for their part as well.

But he's already pissed off our two previous managers and he's now playing for one who won't think twice about fucking him off if his attitude & commitment isn't 100%. I think Pep's possibly already marked his cards unless he shows he's 100% fit and not prepared to compromise that.

So are you trying to say he's not a club legend? Fucking hell I've read some shite about City players but that might just top the lot. Brilliant

I don't think he did try and say that - just said focus on city get fit. Seems very reasonable when you are getting paid 8 million a year.

VKs attitude and mentality are spot on. HAS to stay at the club whatever happens. When did VK ever piss of Pellers? Unbelievable that people are questioning his commitment !
