[edit] African background

As a winner of the Ebony Shoe, Kompany must have African background. Could someone specify from what country? Thanks, Punkmorten 20:06, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

I guess its the Democratic Republic of the Congo... Julien Tuerlinckx 20:20, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

I guess so, at least, I believe that were he's father comes from. He has the belgian nationality however (there was a wrong Congo category included a while ago, but that seemed just wrong) --LimoWreck 14:06, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Football Manager 2006

Is the reference in "Trivia" really appropriate? I tend to think that it doesn't really reflect what the article is about - it's about Vincent Kompany, not a game-generated instance in a data file. Otherwise, we may as well have "Trivia" entries for Thierry Henry saying that he is rated very highly. It's fairly obvious, but is it relevant? I'll remove it.

Yes, right, go ahead --LimoWreck 08:55, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Arsenal

I'm removing the section here about Kompany possibly joining Arsenal, because until there is anything concrete, this is completely irrelevent. If every transfer rumour was included on wikipedia, then it would be ridiculous. Quincy042 (talk) 16:57, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
