Which cup final was that??
I dunno. One that Liverpool might be in? A coppa Italia. Who fucking knows.
Regardless, his points about Vinny are spot fucking on. Second best CB in both of our title winning seasons and past his best. He needs to be sold. We have to be dispassionate about this stuff. Bacon would be selling him after the last two seasons. And he rarely fucked those decisions up as much as it pains to admit.
Cheers

He's had a dip in form this season, we don't know the circumstances of stuff behind the scenes, but I'm more troubled by his attitude and demeanor at times. I think he can turn it around, and if/when he and mangala click as a unit, we'll have a very strong defence.
I'm glad that Mangala has been used sparingly, especially with the form we have been in ... had the potential to absolutely destroy his confidence in a new league. As it is, I think he has everything to prove, and a desire to do so. He certainly did not look shy in his appearance vs. United, even if he did make some mistakes, I don't think he was bad ... he certainly couldn't help Mata being offsides yet not being called for it.
You're watchin with blue tinted specs on r kid.
You say he has had a dip in form this season, you're right, he has. Unfortunately, that dip in form this year comes from a player who was playing shit anyway, and even in the title season was the 2nd best centre half
So we have a player playing poorly for 2/3 years who has recently started playing even shitter than that.
I reckon most who defend kompany would have been the same ones who wanted to keep Balotelli cos he scored in the cup final 3 yrs ago
"We should keep him cos he's a blue"
"He is the best captain iny lifetime"
"Best defender I've ever seen"
Put those comments against the cold light of day, and ion struggling to think of a single reason why he should stay
I don't think I said anything outrageous, Vinnie has done well for us. He's been an important part of winning teams, and made good partnerships with people. He has all the talent, not just the physical attributes, to be among the best defenders in the world ... This season his attitude has been shit and he has added poor decision making to his game, which is regrettable.
He simply has not been playing "poorly for 2/3 years," and as you accuse me of having blue tinted specs on, I'd say your comments are coming mostly from frustration ... which is understandable. You can argue about who the defensive "stars" were in those 2/3 years ... many would say Lescott, who has hardly set the world alight since leaving. You can run through the list of players who were in that defensive unit, up through to midfield ... none are now really covering themselves in glory. Vinnie was part of a successful, balanced defensive unit ... he played his role, he did it well and the world took notice.
I want the vinnie that fit in with a balanced defense, played his role, however important, and fought with passion. That is why my main point is about his attitude. He seems like he's playing within himself, believing his own hype and just generally over-confident ... in short, he is not a team player at the moment, and unbalances the team ... along with several other players we are carrying.

Luckily for me, Txiki, Khaldoon, Pelldgrini, Vieira, Klopp, Guardiola, Ancelotti, whoever will agree with me. So I don't have to worry about it.

The errors of judgdment by Kompany are indeed fact, & he has fucked up in some big games including the QPR game, as did Lescott who alongside Kompany made regular mistakes as part of imo the best cb pairing in the world at that time.
Sergio Ramos & Piquet & Pepe are doing the very same right now, every other week, as are Boateng & the other clown at Bayern, David Luiz at PSG, Terry & Cahill have made some right fucking howlers, Hummels ?
Central defenders make mistakes. Kompany will always as will Jason Denayer when he gets in. Kompany is head and shoulders better tgan everyone else in that list.
He will be back. And he will stay at City. Injury is his worst problem not Txiki. And as for criticising Txiki's signings; they are the blokes who would replace him!

I heard Baby Fernando was taking the piss out of Vinny's massive forehead so Vinny took the piss out of Baby Fern for looking like Big Fern.
