Kompany

Over rated.

Not a patch on

Van Dijk
De Ligt
Laporte
Varane
Koulibaly
Chiellini


Won’t even go down as a PL great with

Rio
Vidic
Carragher
Stam
Hyppia
Adams
Terry
Carvalho


Very much flavour of the month and is one of those players that got better when he was injured.

From your list, who else can win a very important game with a thurnderbolt like Kompany did?

Also, Van Dijk isn't as good as Kompany in the air. The on thing Kompany lacks is speed. But for me, Kompany has been at the top longer than any other defender and experience counts when you play as CB
Kompany wins!

Once you’ve taken off your Kompany fan girl glasses you’ll realise I’m right.

It’s a lot like the saying “thinking of calling your ex? Have a waaaank first and then see if you still want to.”

What a very poor WUM attempt. Treble winning captain is all you need to know. Will be back in the mgt set up one day. Total Legend

I personally don’t care about this apparent fascination as to whether player x is better than player y. And especially so when it comes to comparing players from different periods. All I care about is how good any player is for the team he plays for. And what he brings to the team and how he can help drive that team on.

Kompany has been excellent for City. Whether or not other players are better than him simply doesn’t detract from the fact that he has been excellent for City.

Fans of United and Liverpool seem obsessed with this kind of thing. Scholes and Gerrard being a classic example. Does it really matter? When both sets of fans can genuinely say that what scholes and gerrard contributed to their respective clubs was immense, and that contribution made those fans feel proud that they wore their shirts, does it really matter who was better?

And nothing ever comes from these kind of debates. No one can prove right or wrong either way. They are therefore the very definition of pointless.

And I would actually argue that the intent behind such debates isn’t actually to big up one player. The intent is rather to belittle a player

It’s akin to the big club debates. People are so either/or about it. They become so engrossed in size that they forget the actual fact that...

Just like more than one club can be regarded as big, more than one player can be regarded as good.

And to regard one club as big, or one player as good doesn’t have to be to the detriment of another club or player.

It’s about time simple minded fools like the OP understood that.

Kompany was excellent tbf and Yaya before him. Along with Silva and Aguero I'd say PL greats

Although for some reason I just out Aguero below the others. Just my opinion
