Kompany wants City victory at Fulham to be benchmark

Manchester City put on their best display of the season in a comprehensive 4-1 demolition of Fulham at Craven Cottage. Defender Vincent Kompany now wants City to play at this level as often as possible in order to compete at the top level.

"We have had a couple of good performances but this was one of a very high standard," admitted Kompany.

"When we came in at half-time we said this is the standard we have to expect from ourselves now for the whole season.

"There is not one minute of this season that we want to play at a lower level than we did at Fulham. Maybe we won't achieve it but if the team shows this mentality it is a good thing.

"Who knows where we go now but the ambition of any team in the top six should be to compete with Chelsea and Manchester United and there is no reason to suggest why it would not be possible."
