Kompany is full of Pep talk

- BY DAVID ANDERSON

VINCENT KOMPANY aims to show as Burnley boss what he learned working under Pep Guardiola at Manchester City.

Kompany spent three years with Guardiola at City and said: “I’ve learned from every coach I’ve ever had.

“Some of them you learn what not to do – but when you mention those great coaches like Pep, Roberto Mancini, Manuel Pellegrini and Roberto Martinez, there are a lot of coaches who are very different in many ways.

“You can take a lot from them, but the main thing I’ve taken – and I think this is where the passion came from for me to become a coach – is the simple aspect of making players better.

“It’s about believing that if you make players better, then you win more games.”
