Despite the positive words, the Manchester City captain also warned that the journey to the top of the world game should not be considered a short-term one, and warned fans to patient.

"England will play a World Cup final in the next four competitions for the simple reason that no other country has as much resources to put into facilities."
Kompany – who signed a new five-year contract at the Etihad on Wednesday - also said that in order to fully realise their potential, young English players must be willing to follow the example of other European players and head overseas to gain experience.
"What has made my development is not the fact that I started in the Premier League at 17 or 18 because it's not realistic," he added.
"It's the most competitive league in the world.
"I started at Anderlecht at 17 and played Champions League at 17 and moved on when I was 20. That made a difference for players like me, Eden Hazard, Jan Vertonghen, (Mousa) Dembele, all the players in my national team. We started at smaller clubs.

"If you ask a kid at 17 to go play in League One or go and play in the first division in Holland, 90 per cent will want to play in League One.
"But it's a different type of football to what is required for the Premier League. Open the borders in your head."
Manchester City and Kompany begin the defence of their Premier League crown at Newcastle United on Sunday 17 August.
Their first home game of the season is against Brendan Rodgers’ Liverpool eight days later.
