Manchester City 1-0 Leicester City: 3 players who won the game for Pep Guardiola

#1 Vincent Kompany

The Belgian decided the fate of the game

The Belgian defender seems to have come back to his best after he started 3 of City's latest matches and kept a clean sheet in all of those games. Kompany has been through tough times at Manchester City as he has been rarely included in Pep Guardiola's plan in recent seasons.

This season, Pep has handed him just 12 starts in the Premier League. The 33-year-old also seems poised to find a footballing career elsewhere due to his contract expiring at the end of this season. However, his recent resurgence could mean that he would prolong his stay at the Etihad.

He provided another commanding display against Leicester and left Brendan Rodger's men isolated throughout the match. Jamie Vardy did not even have a single shot in the game thanks to the incredible partnership between the City's captain and Laporte. He also scored Manchester City's winning goal via a thunderous kick from outside the box.
