Vincent Kompany: I have never been more prepared for a game than against Chelsea

Vincent Kompany believes he has never felt more prepared for a game than his Manchester City side's 3-0 demolition job of Chelsea on Sunday.
The City skipper noted how the visitors succumbed to Manuel Pellegrini's tactics - saying Chelsea fell into every trap set for them.
Kompany was imperious at the heart of a City defence untroubled by Diego Costa and Co, and puts his team's performance down to training in the week leading up to the Etihad clash.

'I have never felt as prepared for a game as I did for this one,' Kompany said.
'You could see it – we were setting traps all over the pitch and it planned out perfectly for them.
'That may be the advantage of only playing one match a week at the moment

The header was Kompany's second in two matches after netting at West Brom last Monday. Being his side's top scorer, however, is not an accolade the Belgian expects to hold for long.
He said: 'I don't expect it to go on for too long, but I am probably more happy about the two clean sheets.
'If I am top-scorer for too long, we are in massive trouble!
'I want Sergio [Aguero] to catch up quickly and go on to be top scorer in the Premier League again.'
