Man City's Kompany explains training ground rifts

Vincent Kompany has revealed how Manchester City's training sessions are just as intense as match-days and that can lead to confrontations between players. Not that the Belgium international is complaining, it simply shows the level of desire the players have to succeed.

Kompany said: "We have a very competitive squad. We may not yet be at the level of clubs who have won things for so many years but we are getting there. Our ambition is the same as theirs.

"If you look in training, a defeat in training can lead to a very dramatic scene where people are very angry at each other.

"I believe with this mentality we have now and the longer we are together we will be able to achieve great things. We will enjoy it as well as we enjoy being around each other."
