Vincent Kompany - 2016/17 performances

[Rolee]

Just a thought. But if he is fit in May, he has a retail value greater than if he isn't

My thoughts too.

I'm sorry but I wouldn't even have him taking a place on the bench. Nurse him through to summer and then get rid.

I know some won't be happy with me saying this but persisting with Vinnie has fucked us over for 3 seasons now. We badly need to replace him.

This. There is no room for sentiment this summer or going forward.

If a player is deemed surplus to requirements then we have to get rid regardless and build a squad with the right attributes and especially balance.

I'd let Vinny do what he wants - he doesn't owe us anything. If he wanted to try and play this season i'd let him, if he was ok it would be a massive boost for him. Imagine if he was fit enough to play in the FA cup games and we managed to get to the final with him having played 5 or 6 full games to get fit, imagine if we won it with him as captain. I'd much rather leave the door open to that than f him off like some failed squad player for a couple of £mil. The guy is a legend and we should treat him as such.

Agreed,we should treat him right,he still has a while on his contract i think as well

Was pretty good, unluckily he cost us the game with two deflections, but as far as defending goes he wasn't bad.

I thought he looked much less nervous and less like an accident waiting to happen tonight than on previous returns. This season may be over as far as the league goes, but if Kompany could play the majority of the next 9 games and show he's worth a squad place then it could be huge.

 

[Phil1]

Welcome back, skipper.

 

[jay_mcfc]

Great to have the big guy back and he did well considering time out and the opposition. Him and Stones have the potential to forge a solid partnership if VK can stay fit.

 

[Clercqs]

Great to see him back. Hopefully he'll keep his place next to Stones in the side for the remaining games.

 

[Gabriel]

Hard game to judge him on, especially as he had the luxury of two defensive midfielders in front of him, but he came through it okay. Still looks as if he's having to think about positioning himself when we've got the ball (static and man marking a few times in the first half when we were in possession), but fair play to him for going the distance .

 

[OrigamiNinja]

Only real positive for me tonight was Vinny reminding me of what a good centre back looks like. His passing was no worse than Stones and his actual defending was miles ahead of anything I've seen from our £50m man. I'd rather watch Vinny out there in a wheelchair, playing at the back on his own as opposed to the shite I've had to watch all season.
