Vinny joins Anderlecht as player/manager (Simon Davies follows him)

[BosnianBlue]

Fuck, (almost) old man cries. Just woke up and saw. Good luck legend.

 

[TRUE BLUE NO1]

Anderlecht make it official...

 

[bluedaze]

Just when I thought I had been through every emotion this season ! Thank you Vincent for being you, an absolute legend.

 

[cleavers]

How did Anderlecht do this season? According to the useless bbc website they came 6th, having played 9, won 1 and got 32 points FFS

They finished 4th, that league is the Championship play off (top 6) with 1 round of games to play.

How has this been allowed to happen,if it is about playing time then play him,we were better with him,i bet he never saw himself retiring anywhere else,neither did we,a really sad day all round and didn't need to happen

 

[Chi-town blues]

:(

 

[Barcon]

Just woke up to this. A sad thing to read but we should all be happy for the man. I expect he will be back.

It’s been allowed to happen cos the club and Vinny have the utmost mutual respect for each other and whatever Vinny decided was the best option for him and his family, the club was always gonna standby his decision and support him

Aye, just like Arnold Schwarzenegger Bacon; )

It's something he wants to do Karen. We have to respect his wishes. He'll be back.

 

[Barcon]

Aye, just like Arnold Schwarzenegger Bacon; )

It is not a tumor.

I tried to get this chant going several years ago, never caught on but it sums my feelings up of Vincent Kompany.

"He's big he's bad he's scary
He ant no fuckin' fairy
And strikers will be wary
Of Vincent Kompany"

Na na na na(clap clap)

You'll offend some people with the word "fairy" mate!

;-)

 

[why me? Blue Manchester]

Gutted
A true blue legend for Manchester city
Will be sorely missed

 

[PragueBlue]

The right move at the right time but he will be greatly missed. I suspect he'll be back though.

 

[Mcfchamps]

To think people were saying he’d end up at United...

To my captain, thank you for 11 years of service. You’re the backbone of this club and it’s a sad day to see it all come to an end, like every other great thing

 

[Daz_Blue]

Build a statue ..... fucking legend ....we love you skipper ....

 

[dachoosen1]

He will be excellent a stand out player in that league just wondering what will happen if his management isn't good enough? Will his contract be changed to just a player or will he get sacked all together? Don't think it will happen just always wondered about these player/managers especially as he will be head and shoulders above the rest of the division in terms of ability.

 

[Dax777]

Anderlecht make it official...

They are using our footage :(

 

[citytill1die84]

Gutted but what a way for him to bow out.

Thanks for the memories Vincent Kompany an absolute legend.

Yup, the sort of fairy's that wash pots with rubber gloves on mate; )
