Vincent Kompany - 2016/17 performances

[aguero93:20]

my first thread so bear with me:
The captain has been training hard and looks quite ready but all we hear is that his blood tests aren't ready; and today i read that he's still not ready yet... the message is cryptic enough for the supporters to not worry plus we are winning beautifully....
so i ask: do you think Pep just does not fancy Vinny and is biding his time until the supporters are satisfied with the string of wins before he gets rid of him (next year)?
I'm guessing that would have been too much of a clean house, together with the Yaya, Joe etc... well a lot of people dislike Yaya so no repercussions there... with Joe; you hear a lot of "if the replacement is better then we can live with his departure... but with Kompany; i think that would have been too much all at once... so he is slowly weaning the supporters...
your thoughts?

Yep, get rid, he's shit.

The defence looks good why rush him back ?

 

[evianglass]

Nope,we are taking good care of him to give him every chance to come back

I understand that but it's been almost 6 month for a muscle injury... it's not like he has had major surgery... isn't it too long?

 

[Higor Douglas]

no

6 months for a series of muscle injuries.

I reckon he's been held back until the League Cup game.

He had surgery as it was similar to Nari's when he tore the muscle off the bone

I hope he's not introduced for a while yet. Let Stone and Otamendi continue to build their partnership. Kompany is a great insurance policy in case either is injured/suspended. For now at least.

We don't need him back yet. He certainly won't replace Stones, so it's Otamendi's spot he's after. It's a difficult one for the manager.

 

[Burtonblue]

If it ain't broke....
No need to risk him for the time being.
He is drinking at last chance saloon so need to get his return absofuckinglutely right this time or he'll be gone.

Love him to bits but for as long as we can cope without him we should continue to do so. We need to get to a stage where we're as strong without him as we are with him as unfortunately, he can't rely on him being available. We've been too reliant on him for the past two seasons and it's really hurt us. He's an amazing cover option and will still get a decent number of games.
