"We have a very good relationship and the fact that we speak the same language makes communication easier... He wanted to bring me to Burnley in the Premier League and had shown interest in me for a long time... Now we have met in Munich - and that's nice."
"Yes, we mostly speak French. But sometimes he wants to annoy me, so he speaks English to me [laughs]."
"The style he tries to instill in us often involves man-to-man situations across the entire pitch - and then we quickly switch forward. Yes, in the end it really is [simple]."
"One of the best qualities a coach can have is to explain a tactical scheme as simply and clearly as possible for easy translation on to the pitch. It seems that Kompany has that quality."
