Blast he's going to Anderlecht as Player/Manager.

He still wants to play somewhere and from what I've seen and heard he's a pretty good bloke.
Would be v happy for him to be here.
Obv wouldn't play 38 games but for him to help coaching and playing occasionally, he doesn't need the big money but not sure if he'd consider our budget or project

Aye, doubt we could afford him, to be honest.

Absolutely fantastic bloke, have you watched the Amazon documentary, All or nothing, that followed them behind the scenes last season? A cracking watch, and he comes across as a really decent guy.

Doesn't surprise me

I didn't watch it but I've seen several bits away from football shows which he's been involved with, generally came away with good impression of the bloke.

Yes, as in life generally there are plenty of arseholes around in football but Kompany is clearly not one.

Great player.

 

[Canaryboy]

Read something about him going to watch their women's team matches and even training sessions frequently at Man City, whereas most of the men don't give them the time of day. I wonder whether this means he has to sell the club he owns in Belgium?

Is that Robert Green celebrating Chelski winning the cup?
Blast from the past.

This is why I wish Villa hadn't gone up. Of the three who did I think they will be favourites to stay up, if this is what they are splashing about.

They got bought from the brink by some billionaires.
They cant spend too much each year because of the rules regarding turnover etc.

FFP rules now that I can remember the correct term.
And they seem to be getting enforced with fines and transfer bans etc.

Never heard of him, but a quick google search shows a record of 32 goals in 107 games in the Belgian league, so not exactly setting the world alight at that level to suggest taking the premier league by storm, I'd rather have Wesley Hoolahan any day

How much was Pukki again?
