As a winner of the Ebony Shoe, Kompany must have African background. Could someone specify from what country? Thanks, Punkmorten 20:06, 30 December 2005 (UTC) Reply

I guess its the Democratic Republic of the Congo... Julien Tuerlinckx 20:20, 30 December 2005 (UTC) Reply
I guess so, at least, I believe that were he's father comes from. He has the belgian nationality however (there was a wrong Congo category included a while ago, but that seemed just wrong) --LimoWreck 14:06, 19 June 2006 (UTC) Reply
Yes, he is 1/2 DR Congolese from his paternal heritage. 82.33.139.144 (talk) 11:54, 28 May 2024 (UTC) Reply

Football Manager 2006

Is the reference in "Trivia" really appropriate? I tend to think that it doesn't really reflect what the article is about - it's about Vincent Kompany, not a game-generated instance in a data file. Otherwise, we may as well have "Trivia" entries for Thierry Henry saying that he is rated very highly. It's fairly obvious, but is it relevant? I'll remove it.

I'm removing the section here about Kompany possibly joining Arsenal, because until there is anything concrete, this is completely irrelevent. If every transfer rumour was included on wikipedia, then it would be ridiculous. Quincy042 (talk) 16:57, 14 May 2008 (UTC) Reply

Manchester City transfer

I've added a short line on the rumoured offer that Manchester City have had accepted for Kompany. It may reduce the number of people coming on and changing his club even though the deal hasn't been confirmed. I doubtful though. Srushe (talk) 16:57, 21 August 2008 (UTC) Reply

Stupid question

Latest comment: 11 years ago 2 comments2 people in discussion

Does being an unused substitute count as appearance? --OpenFuture (talk) 08:38, 28 May 2011 (UTC) Reply

Number of selections (in the assumption the player also made it to the stadium) = number of times of having been an unused substitute + number of appearances (synonym for appearances: caps). So, even though every substitute appears on the form of the referee, not every selection means an appearance. Kareldorado (talk) 21:02, 20 September 2014 (UTC) Reply

Height

What would be the best estimate? Depending on the source, it goes from 1.90m (National Football Teams) to 1.93m (=6'04", Manchester City website). Of course, people vary with 1cm throughout a day and inches are a bit less precise than centimeters, but still... Kareldorado (talk) 20:47, 20 September 2014 (UTC) Reply

Notdone for now, as there are no official news about him at Bayern yet. We're still at the "agree in principle" point. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 09:41, 27 May 2024 (UTC) Reply

Fair point, but it's not like he can unsign the 3 year contract ChaiMati (talk) 10:09, 27 May 2024 (UTC) Reply

Add the fact that Vincent Kompany now manages Bayern Munich. So instead of saying "Vincent Kompany is the manager of Burnley" say something like "Vincent Kompany is the manager of Bayern Munich." Stupromohammed (talk) 20:05, 27 May 2024 (UTC) Reply
