Jon Walters explains why Manchester City hero Vincent Kompany is better than Liverpool’s Virgil van Dijk
Jon Walters believes Manchester City hero Vincent Kompany remains streets ahead of new PFA Player of the Year Virgil van Dijk.City captain Kompany popped up with a season-defining moment in the tense 1-0 victory over Leicester by netting an absolute thunderbolt.The former Premier League striker, who recently announced his retirement, says the Liverpool defender must match the Belgian’s longevity before the pair can be considered equal.3

Van Dijk has become one of the world’s best defenders

Kompany has featured less prominently for City in recent years

Kompany, who is on the cusp of a fourth Premier League title as Man City captain, has seen the latter stages of his career blighted with various injuries.Nonetheless, he has still played 16 league games for City this season, with all-but one resulting in victory.Liverpool boast the Premier League’s tightest defence thanks largely to the influence of Van Dijk and the Dutchman has been mentioned among some of English football’s greatest defenders. However, Walters suggests the praise comes prematurely.Speaking exclusively to888sport, he said: “You have got to go with Kompany over Van Dijk for winning the Premier League as captain. To be up there with the best you have to be winning things.“Virgil Van Dijk has had a great 18 months and as good as hes been you have to be doing it for at least four, five years before you can be considered right up there.“Look at Ramos, Busquets, Pique. Those players are the worlds best because theyve been doing it consistently winning trophies, leagues, Champions Leagues.3

Walters announced his retirement from football in March

“There is a good probability that Virgil Van Dijk is going to be captain next year and he just needs to keep it up, keep doing it. Like Vincent Kompany who has been doing it for so many years.“Hes older now and injuries have taken their toll but theyre right at the top of the league and hes still played a major part this season.“I was speaking to a Burnley player who played at City and asked him what Kompany is like. He said he relishes those big occasions. He said hes unbelievable.

“There were plenty of times when I would drop deep and look to pass the ball off and you know for a fact that Kompany would be coming right through the back of you. And hell get away with it because hes a nice guy and very articulate guy.“He gets away with a lot but I like that because I try and do the same. They are different players but by virtue of winning the league and being so consistent over the years its Kompany for me.”Read the full888sportinterview withJonathan Walters including his thoughts on what is like tolive a life of a professional footballer in the modern era
