Roberto Mancini also stressed the importance of club Legend and former captain Vincent Kompany during that season.

“I always thought he was a fantastic defender and for us, he was a very important player and a very important man in the dressing room.

“And also, he scored that important goal against United!


“With his quality, he could also play as a midfielder but we had many in that position.


“And I thought that Vincent was a really good central defender. I think it’s probably one of the best.”
