He's finished, Pep has a big big decision to make now as this I feel is the straw that broke the camels back regarding his City career .

When Pep is choosing Kolorov over Vinny at CB then you know something just ain't right.

To be fair Kolorov is doing a good job, we need to get behind him now as he will be playing there a lot til the summer window.

Kolorov is a fake hardman and a woeful defender......he doesn't have 1% of the commitment to the club that Kompany has. His performances have been vastly overrated this season in every sense and he is a liability. If Kompany cant play we need a new centre half and a new left back as soon as possible.

Pep doesn't have any decision to make...Kompany and him along with the doctors will make the decision....Pep isn't a doctor and will take advice. He would be insane (and wrong) not to,

No one knows at present why he pulled out tonight.....Maybe he just didnt feel something was quite right and he is doing exactly as the city medical staff have told him to do and not play unless sure. He has admitted in the past that he hasn't listened to his body and this has led to further injury.
If it is an injury he deserves every chance to keep trying till he decides that he cant play again.

The situation reminds me of LEdley King at spurs...he was constantly injured (also an excellent centre half) but the club managed it for him for years and years......we won't lost anything by doing the same for the next few seasons. We just need another alternative for when he cant play. That should have been sorted out int he summer so we don't have to play the likes of Kolorov ever

Edit: Martinez said he had been fine for 3 days but didnt feel right int he warm up......so no chances taken........Doesnt sound like an injury as such just Kompany listening to his body....there is every chance that his head is not right (understandably)...Id be very interested to know whether it was his calf or his thigh (which was the last operation he had)....that is a huge injury but completely unrelated to the consistent calf problems he has had in the past.......

He should be sent back to the club for assessment but Martinez is saying that he will be assessed the day before the next match (estonia) but doesn't think VK will be able to play.....mixed messages!

Yeah. It feels like it''s time to move on. If this is just another temporary issue (and please may that all be all it is) then hopefully crisis averted.
 
His best days are behind him.

He might have to retire within the next twelve months and I think Pep is grooming him for a role at the club.
 
It doesnt matter what happens with international duty. Pep has been speaking about Kompany in past tenses and increasingly so. He isnt in the plans and you can forgive the manager for that. Take MOTD for instance; how many years now have we had to endure that stupid fecking graph and all the stats comparing how well we played with him and how we performed without? Point being, we were better with him, but we couldnt have him enough and so were affected by it. Therefore, wider interest and longer term, he has come to the end. And we thank him for being the beast that he was.
 
Its simply over.

The owners and management of this club want to take it to the very pinnacle of world football and when that is the case , there is simply no room for ANY passengers, whoever and whatever they may have achieved in the past.

Vincent Kompany has been a magnificent player and captain of our club, but it's time to move on.
 
My immediate thought was that he should retire from international football to help save his body but it would have actually been nice to see him complete another 90 mins.

It's not looking very good for him, that's for sure and it's incredibly sad for such a great player and club legend.
 
I'm sure an update will be provided today,i'm guessing its probably something or nothing and he was simply listening to recent advice.

Hopefully,suggestions of his immediate retirement are very wide of the mark.
