Whoever they face, Vincent Kompany wants momentum to ensure progression to the next round. “We had a lot of attacking players on the pitch & had a big chance to go 4-0. We didn’t take our chances”, the Belgian coach said (as captured by Twitter account @iMiaSanMia).

The thought of Vincent Kompany managing Burnley seemed nothing more than a distant memory when the Clarets were relegated from the top-flight in 2022, but that didn't deter the Belgian from taking the vacant post.

Speaking ahead of tomorrow’s game, Vincent Kompany said (ht: iMiaSanMia): “We’ve got final training later and then we’ll know more. Phonzy is injured, Konrad Laimer is suspended. João Palhinha and Sacha Boey could come in to the equation and we need to see how the others react.”
