The idea that these new centre halves are suddenly going to be better than Ben Mee is pure fantasy.
If Kompany did reject the opportunity to re-sign him because he wouldn’t fit into his system then I think it’s a really daft move.

I’m excited to see Twine and the others we’ve brought in but I fully expect Dwight to have a better season and be more influential than those next year.
Assuming he stays with us, of course.
