Kompany: Villa's top four finish is a great achievement; Bayern are hungry

I've been there myself as a player and as a coach, and when you're in a perennially winning team, sometimes the year after an injury is the best time for them to bounce back. The team is hungry, the club is hungry, I'm hungry too. Of course, we have to prove it on the pitch."

For us, the bar was set very high, the bar was very high. I also like this environment. We quickly shifted our focus from this game to the next one. The next game against Aston Villa is another opportunity for us to be on the main stage again. We have players in our squad who are capable of creating goalscoring threats. Not just the starters, but also the players we can bring on from the bench. The club has big ambitions, so to compete at this level you can't do without that kind of squad depth. I We still need to send the ball into the goal, I hope we can continue to do this. . Since I have been against him, he has made progress. How much funds have been invested in this league.
