Vincent Kompany

I don't understand how such a powerful, commanding, intelligent figure who was a colossus for City and destined to become a City legend is now producing indecisive and doubtful displays for City. I hope he turns it around to how he once was.

I would hazard a guess its because of the indecisive and doubtful 442 he been asked to play in. He said as much last season that the defence has a lot less protection and the emphasis has shifted from being defensively solid to all out attack, so something had to give.

Good players rarely become indecisive and doubtful overnight without good reason.

you split them cos i can't.

#1 Watson - the genuine article, in the air, on the ground, imperious
#2 Doyle - closer to VK, quicker and and far more refined as an all-round footballer than he was given credit for
#3 Kompany - high class, but occasionally overly impetuous and where his conversion from midfield to defender is obvious

Three wonderful players.

I agree, that's a great description of Big Dave. He could head it farther than I could kick it.

I'd add Booth to the list as well but there you go.

Undoubtedly though Kompany has been poor this season. Then again Pellers changed a component of the defence every game till recently.

Booth is a great shout,at the start of the 80s he was superb.

All great players,but I will plump for Mike Doyle just for his hatred of the rag vermin.
