Former Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany on the Premier League charging his former club with more than 100 breaches of its financial rules: "I kind of look at it and roll my eyes a little bit"; Burnley boss also added: "Football can't afford to point the finger too many times"
Former Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany questioned the motives of the club's critics after the reigning champions were hit with more than 100 breaches of the Premier League's financial rules.
On Monday the Premier League made the bombshell announcement regarding an unprecedented array of charges relating to a period between 2009 and 2018, with potential punishments if the club is found guilty ranging from fines to relegation.
Kompany, who won four Premier League titles, two FA Cups and four League Cups during an 11-year spell at the Etihad Stadium, would not comment directly on the charges laid at his former employers' doors, insisting he had not had time to get into it while preparing for Burnley's 2-1 FA Cup win over Ipswich.
