Mancini: Kompany must ‘pay more attention’ to his tackling

Goal :    Roberto Mancini has warned Vincent Kompany that he must change his approach to tackling in order to avoid being sent off in future.

The Belgian skipper was dismissed for a heavy tackle on Jack Wilshere in Manchester City’s 2-0 win at Arsenal last week, but saw his three-match ban overturned on appeal.

Kompany was shown two red cards last season, including one in a Manchester derby FA Cup defeat, and the Italian has warned his skipper that he must “pay more attention” to his tackling.
