Kompany said today: "Selling players is not my job. I'm here for the team. Every player on the team has a lot of talent. These are players (Kimmich, Goretzka, Gnabry) who have been successful in the past. Now that it's about the future, I don't want to talk about each player individually. It is not my intention. I want to work with the guys. I feel like everyone is hungry. 

"I'm not going to go into detail about each player, otherwise we'd talk all night. I understand the question (about Kimmich), really. But we could name all the names. Harry Kane, Musiala, what I think of Goretzka. We could go on like this all evening. 

"But that's not my intention. I played at this level and I know that no one ever told me that I would be an indisputable starter, even if I was captain. These players are used to meeting the highest demands. We need everyone. If you want to talk about names, we're completely off base. 

“It’s a subject for the media."
