Kompany on Burnley Premier League Return & Man City Legacy
Спорт
This week on The Overlap brought to you by Sky Bet, I'm with Burnley manager Vincent Kompany for an exclusive interview at the Barnfield Training Centre in Lancashire to discuss his incredible football journey and his future in football management.
From his upbringing shaped by his parents, to his time at Manchester City, we cover it all.
We start with Vincent's early days at Manchester City. Initially he played in midfield under Mark Hughes, but it was under Roberto Mancini and later Manuel Pellegrini and Pep Guardiola that he fell in love with defending and became a Premier League winning captain. His leadership and defensive prowess made him one of Europe's best centre-backs.
Throughout his career, Vincent faced injuries but used them as stepping stones to become stronger and better. We also talk about his working with Guardiola and how his philosophy influenced his development.
We cover the incredible players he played alongside, like Kevin De Bruyne, Eden Hazard, and David Silva who left a lasting impact on him. We touch on the intense battles against Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool during those incredible titles races and the transformations in Manchester City's squad before and after the takeover.
Vincent explains why he chose Burnley and the challenges of managing a Championship club aiming for promotion. We also reflect on Burnley's successful period in the Championship gaining 100 points and their progression back into the top flight.
Lastly, we delve into Vincent's management style and how he instills his philosophy in his players. We discuss Burnley's aspirations for the new season and their desired finishing position, as well as potential additions to the squad.

Kompany is a class act. It was a privilege to watch him play, it’s a privilege to hear him speak and it’s going to be a privilege to see him manage. A great role model.
A credit to his parents, manners is everything
Huge Liverpool fan but I absolutely love this guy. He's very eloquent, honest, and likeable. I hope he goes all the way to the top.

Yeah with the mighty clarets nah can see him going to City in a few unless it goes pear can't see it though he's got intelligence experience knowledge and character the only thing against at the mo is funds we'll see
If I didnt know who Kompany was, I could believe he is a British university professor. Super smart, eloquent and thoughtful. Not one phrase that isn't both perfectly phrased and there is some real wisdom there too

@@Luke-kj1rjyou say that but I’ll bet you didn’t know Ian Dowie has a degree in astrophysics. His teammates used to call him the professor. Never judge a book by It’s cover.
Kompany is extremely eloquent and well spoken, I could see him lecturing at a top university or educational institute. Fascinating to hear him speak.
A player who can be respected by everyone regardless of what team you support. a class act on and off the pitch.
Despite being a red I've always had big respect for Vincent. Top professional, top player, top man
Kompany is absolutely going to be a City manager one day. You can just feel the confidence.

Probably the best episode this channel has done.
Vincent Kompany is pure class. There is nothing in this interview that says he will not be a great manager. Sure, its edited to give us his best bits. But he just strikes us a leader and of high competency. His journey seems to allow him to see the game from every position, phenom, trickester, injuried, battlers, defenders, old player etc. Just has it all. One thing Gary doesnt ask is about moving on? How long does he expect to be at Burnley? What if another club come for him? Where will he go?

He wont take anyone in the Premier League other than city, he will wait for pep to leave.
City is waiting patiently for you, cap!
Anyone that is a football fan will never have a bad word to say about Kompany. What a player, what a gentleman 👌🏻
City legend. Future city manager. We love you VK
As a United fan I absolutely despised this guy but tbh it speaks volumes of how great of a player he was that he rattled me so much loooool😂😂😂😂now that he’s retired ofc it’s nothing but respect for him n I can happily look back on his career n say he’s top 3 prem CB's ever behind Rio n Vidic✅✅very respectful n humble guy as well I was there at OT when we played Burnley in the carabao last season n after the game he took the time to take pics with United fans who’ve understandably given him such abuse over the years n even during the game👏🏾👏🏾as a Congolese myself as well I can’t help but admire the work he’s doing back home his charity work is inspiring man I love that even tho he’s Belgian he still remembers his roots n tries to help the people back in Congo🇨🇩🇨🇩
Definition of a gentle giant. Such a likeable human being.
This guy is a natural coach and manager. He talks like he has been a coach for 20 years! He is also a great observer. His attention to detail will make him successful. I bet he will be the Man City coach in about 5 years. Impressed.
Can't not like this guy ...a real inspiration to people...
Mum sounds like a legend ❤
Here’s to you Vincent kompany…💙. Captain fantastic
Liverpool fan here. I really, really like Vincent, especially now that he’s not playing anymore. 😆 seriously though, Burnley will be my second team next season. I hope this guy goes right to the top. 👍

Burnley will finish top half this season
Lucky to have Kompany as club legend 💙

His song will be belling out when City play Burnley, it’ll feel like a testimonial
Vincent is a lovely fella. Great player, great manager and a top top geezer. Loved the interview well done gary also
You can still hear a Manc twang in his accent. You’re an absolute legend Vinny.
I have always had huge respect for Vincent Company, and this interview has only reinforced that. An amazing individual-humble, articulate, smart. I won't be surprised when he takes a club to 100 points. Gary, the interview was really outstanding. Your questions are on point, you provide an intimate comfortability and you make it all look easy. Well done!
What a player, what a man. On top of that Vincent has better english than most english people. Class act. Future Man City manager for sure. Arsenal Fan
Forever a city legend!
In peps first season I feel he didn’t fancy kompany much and then April May kompany was insane in helping city secure top 4 and that changed peps thinking of him.
I know it's said a lot, but this guy is remarkably articulate and clear minded. It's so hard to imagine him not going on to be a top class manager
He is such a great communicator, definitely a man to watch for the future. Managers like this football will continue to evolve in the best way. UTD FAN
And people think this mans titles should be retracted? regardless of our business dealings, you cant take away the professionalism and dedication our players past and present have brought to the premier league, they have raised the standard
Best interview ever, VK is so eloquent and intelligent. Thanks Gary
The next Man City boss, it's written in the stars
As a United fan, Kompany is one of the only players I truly ever wished played for us..
I remember his first match i saw on the tele was in Champions League for Anderlecht when he was a youngster, he was like dribbling from the back to front (cant remember he score or give a final pass) and i thought what a player. What a player throughout the career
as a utd fan ...what a man, what a players
Brilliant Vincent kompany all the Best to him & Burnley next season… was a tremendous player & leader at city will never be forgotten by blues fans
100 points as a player and a manager in the PL would be an incredible achievement. All the best!
Whilst I love him being at Burnley, I know he’s destined for bigger things. We must let him do his thing, he’s transformed the club and pushed us into the next level. I will defo wish him well when he moves on.

“You’re never too big for anything in life” Kompany 2023
As a United fan, I never got to know kompany this closely. Huge respect for him as a professional and the character he always has been. Good luck for your future and excited to see burnley play under your management
Not sure how good of a manager he is yet, but he’s an unbelievably impressive human being. I’m not sure I’ve heard a more eloquent and intelligent PL player post-retirement.
As a United fan, I listened to this twice. Just wanted to take in everything Kompany has got to say
calm, eloquent/articulate and succinct.. he is a true leader... he is destined for greatness.. apart from being a great servant for united, the overlap is hands down one of the best things neville has ever done.. ps: 15:56 the way he summed up hazard and kdb and their careers in a couple of sentences is better than anything i've heard from any pundit over the past decade!
im a united fan, but to me kompany is class, and one of the only players with real class ive seen in the last 10 years. inteligent too.
Kompany is pure class, big respect as a Liverpool fan
Even as a Newcastle fan kompany is my all time favourite defender of the premier league era! What a man

Brilliant mind to tap into. Knows his stuff and was one hell of a player and captain. Coming from a Chelsea fan
What a man, definitely a product of his parents, he's a total credit to them both. I always liked and respected Vincent when he was playing, a true leader and a great defender and it's not surprising that he's becoming a great manager too. I hope he does well with Burnley this coming season. Staying up will obviously be the target but he will strive for better, you're in great hands Burnley!

@@bosstimeagainI'm a City fan and you are spot on! Your club is in GREAT hands. This man is a GOD of our club, and I HOPE he replaces Pep when he eventually leaves. To do that, he needs to prove himself as an exceptional manager though, because City ain't take anything less. I initially thought when Arteta went to Arsenal, that he was just getting head coach experience to then come back to City. NOW, I think that Vinnie is destined to come home. You wait until Burnley come to the Etihad... City fans will be singing our old Vinnie K songs, even though he's the opposition. We'll love him forever for everything he did for us. He's one of the most important players we've ever had. Bottom line, I'll be cheering for your clarets all season long, because I desperately want Vinnie to succeed. You'll do more than stay up. I reckon he's capable of guiding you to 6th or 7th and into the Europa League for the following season. All the best to you and your team and your phenomenal manager! 🩵
Such a top bloke. Hope he does well and eventually gets the city job x😊
Great to a hear a real football intellect, erudite speaker and naturally talented world class defender..........talking to Gary Neville........
Best overlap yet! Two of the greatest premier League legends
I really hope Burnley do well under Kompany. Think he has the potential to be a great coach and take roles at the biggest clubs in the world - Leicester fan
I am City fan and I like Gary. Great man. 2 legends
I want to be best friends with this man/mentee under him. So grounded, so thoughtful, so honest, so compassionate, so fair, always growing/learning, while also incredibly brave. I think that's what separates him. Everything I want to be ❤
Can tell by the comments no matter who anyone supports they rate Kompany highly which is as big a compliment as possible. Unreal player he was
Brilliant stuff, kompany is a class act and I wish him all the success for coming season, off the back of a spectacular season in the championship 🏆
Like him even more after this
Great interview and a superb insight into the man Vincent Kompany. He’s a true gentleman, inspiration and leader. Burnley is such a lucky club to have you as manager and we are on an amazing journey together ❤
i will always have so much respect for Vinny, he was one of the first big players we signed in this new era of our club, i hope it works out well for him at Burnley and it would be amazing if one day he became a good enough to manage Man City, and i can't wait for the first game of next season against his Burnley team
Incredible defender! Big game player! Absolute clutch!
He's a real class act, I love his approach to football.
He's a manc through and through. It'll be a sad day when pep leaves City, but I'm putting my money on Vinny to takeover. Legend.
I feel honoured to have met this man, a true inspiration to anyone who loves football
This was my favourite one yet even as a utd fan, he speaks so well and clearly has a very clear idea of who he wants to be as a coach.
Brilliant as always what a professional player/manager keep these interviews coming
Its interesting how we can be so tribal within our football teams as supporters and loathe the opposition through that lense only to find out how wrong you were about the individual as a person. Great interview. I'd root for Burnley getting 100 points too Gary 😉......
I’m glad to see how people from other clubs have a huge respect for my legend and a coach. You’ll go far Vinny!!👊🏿
The guy is a philosopher city and epl legend
19:31 inspiring to hear about how dedicated he was evening training alone. Huge respect!
Decent player. Great manager. 👌
What a player, what a captain!
Kmpany is genius. Pure klass.
„You re never too big for anything in life“ love it!!!
You can really see why the players would run through brick walls for him. Likeable, articulate, professional. Top ten finish for Burnley next season.

Vincent was the reason I got into English football & took to cheering for City. Gr8 interview, and I wish him all the success at Burnley except when they play City of course 😂😂 Vincent Kompany Manchester City legend forever ⚪️🔵⚪️🔵
Kompany in the early Champ Man games was ridiculous. pretty much the only player with Passing, Strength and Tackling at 20
I'm a man utd fan. Have to admit, he's going to go right to the top as a manger. Fantastic.
Some of that young Kompany remained in the older Kompany. He'd often go on full length runs up the pitch on and off the ball. I recall a couple against Utd in Moyes' 1st Derby
Mr Man City 💙
Everytim I listen to Kompany it only confirms what KDB said years ago "Kompany can be anything he wants even President if he puts his mind to it"
Quality interview, Kompany is a top guy, no doubt will have a great management career
Quality episode again, always has such a relaxed feel to it and produces great insights into the mind... Would love you to interview Emery next
Sir Alex would definitely love to have him as a player
All I see here is a clear disciple of Pep who speaks and carries himself like he's going all the way to the very top. This man will manage a team to the Champions League.
Great interview!
'I measure my words because the premier league will humble you.' This guy really got all the right ingredients in all the right ratios. I knew he was epic, even when he was smashing people. It's nice to get an insight into how.
This is the best episode yet, Vincent Kompany is so well rounded.
