From what I've seen kompany won't be able to handle messi and zabaleta isnt going to be able to handle neymar. Imo english teams look good in the epl because they get to play with so much space thats why spanish playmakers look so much better over there but I doubt they'll get the ball from iniesta-busi-xavi.
Yeah watching Kompany v Suarez, clearly Kompany feels the best way of stopping a striker who drops off is to follow him even if it is 20 yards into the opposition half, which means Messi will either be able to turn him or it will leave a huge hole for Neymar or Alexis/Pedro to run into. Hopefully Tata tells our Wingers that they should look to cut in and make diagonal runs a lot because City always seems to have lots of space in behind. I also feel Kompany will look to be very physical with Messi which in europe gives a lot more free kicks away than it doesn't.
