Man City captain Vincent Kompany: Chelsea fell into every trap we set them

Vincent Kompany celebrates putting City 2-0 up against Chelsea

VINCENT KOMPANY reckons Chelsea fell into every trap Manchester City set them this weekend.

 

The champions came to the Etihad after a difficult week following on from the 2-2 draw with Swansea and the medical saga with Eva Carneiro and Jon Fearn banished from the bench.

And with City in full flight from their opening day 3-0 over West Brom, the hosts were in a confident mood.

 

City eventually romped to a 3-0 victory with the skipper scoring his second header in as many games with goals from Sergio Aguero and Fernandinho either side.

And Kompany believes the preparation from Manuel Pellegrini's side was perfect.

"I have never felt as prepared for a game as I did for this one," Kompany said.

"You could see it – we were setting traps all over the pitch and it planned out perfectly for them.

"That may be the advantage of only playing one match a week at the moment.

"If I have to give credit to the team for one thing, it was the way we prepared.

"There was not one thing Chelsea threw at us that we didn't know about."

 

Kompany is now City's top scorer with two goals but admits he's happier having yet to concede a goal.

"I don't expect it to go on for too long, but I am probably more happy about the two clean sheets," he added.

"If I am top-scorer for too long, we are in massive trouble.

"I want Sergio to catch up quickly and go on to be top scorer in the Premier League again."
