Vincent Kompany v Nicolas Otamendi




Vincent Kompany

Vincent Kompany       Trumps
Heading 7
Strong in the air, though not as strong as he once was, nowadays his legs are clearly not there and his leap is not the same as it used to be.
Tackling 7
Used to be an excellent tackler but his timing is a bit off these days. The mind sees the chance to put a foot in but the body is slower to react.
Passing 8
One thing he still has is his ability on the ball and a good range of passing to allow City to build from the back.
Strength 8
Still strong, though overly reliant on his physicality.
Pace 7
Quick for a centre back but no longer quite as quick as he was. Injuries and age have really taken a toll on him.

Nicolas Otamendi       Trumps
Heading 8
Strong in the air, it is one of his key attributes.
Tackling 7
He could be an excellent tackler, but he is far too rash at times, which leads to unnecessary cards. It is something he needs to work on as he should pick up far more red cards than he has done and his luck can only hold for so long.
Passing 6
A decent passer but not at the level Guardiola would prefer.
Strength 8
Good strength, very rarely bullied by a forward in that respect.
Pace 7
Can be beaten for pace, which leads to rash challenges and pulls at times.
