Ahead of last season's top two meeting on Super Sunday, Vincent Kompany is relishing the battle ahead and urges everyone to tune in.
“It’s early on in the season but it’s a game that matters, it’s worth tuning in for and, for us, worth giving everything.”
A perfect line for the Sky Sports promo department ahead of a game between - judging by last season’s league table - the best two teams in the country.
But not scripted, not just fed to and repeated by a willing footballer. Instead one delivered, entirely off his own bat, by one of the best, if not the best talker in the Premier League.
It’s nothing new to say Vincent Kompany is well-educated and articulate, but it’s more than that. The City captain speaks honestly, rarely tries to dodge or deflect and - as a fellow journalist put it to me - explores every answer.
