Vincent Kompany’s first press conference as Burnley boss
Listen to EVERYTHING the new Turf Moor chief had to say
VK on potential outgoings, including Nathan Collins
"I made a point to leave the players on their holidays. I gtry to limit my time to speaking to the players when they're in the building. If there's a club we'll have a discussion, if not, we'll move on."
VK on being enticed to Turf Moor
"It happened over a period of time. I was not in a need to go and look for another club. We started talking mid-term,long-term, short-term, speaking about opportunities. There was an openness with the chairman and the owners.
“The reality is that we're in a very calm position and we know how to grow the club. It's a transition period. It's about recruitment and developing players. The hardest part of football is keeping people calm.”
Vincent Kompany on losing Nick Pope, James Tarkowski and Ben Mee
"It goes with potential drops in revenue when you fall from PL. Realise that some valuable players have to move on. We've got depth in quality, certainly for the Championship, though others earned the right to move on.
“Looking forward to bringing in some exciting players. Players attract interest, we expect that. It's an experienced squad and we want balance. “
VK on Turf Moor
"It's always been an incredibly difficult place to come Turf Moor. It's a place of history and tradition. At the training ground you've got everything you need for a high performance environment."
VK on new additions
VK on potential signings: “We’re close to bringing in a few players, medicals finalised, contracts signed, nobody bringing in officially today. Close to players, 24-48 hours start making first announcements.”
