Manchester City must take a leaf out of Sir Alex Ferguson̢۪s book and keep Vincent Kompany at the club for at least another year.
That’s according to talkSPORT pundit Micky Gray, who says the former Manchester United boss was ‘the best’ at keeping experienced winners and leaders at Old Trafford as a boost to his younger players.
City have been urged to hand club captain Kompany a new contract after his goal of a lifetime against Leicester City all-but handed the Premier League title to the Blues.
The Belgian defender smashed in the only goal of a 1-0 victory from 30 yards on Monday night, as City climbed back above Liverpool by one point ahead of this weekend̢۪s season finale.
If City win their final game of the campaign against Brighton, they will be crowned champions again.
It will be a fourth Premier League title win for 33-year-old Kompany, who is out of contract in the summer.

Pep Guardiola has admitted he will sit down with the centre-back to discuss his future after the season finishes.
And Gray insists he must be given a new deal to stay at the Etihad Stadium, dubbing him one of Manchester City’s own ‘Holy Trinity’.
â€Å“If they were going to do a statue of three players, like Manchester United have done at Old Trafford, you would have Sergio Aguero, David Silva and Vincent Kompany,†the former Sunderland defender told talkSPORT host Jim White on Tuesday.
â€Å“In this era, over the last ten years, they are the three best players who have played for Manchester City.
â€Å“When you think of what Man City have achieved with Vincent Kompany as captain, and he’s just irreplaceable, not just on the field but off it as well.
â€Å“Gary Neville made so much sense when he said Man City should keep Kompany and they should sign him on for another three years.
â€Å“What that means is, when you’re bringing new players into that dressing room and they’re settling into a new club, they can look at somebody who has been there and won what he’s won at that club.
â€Å“Sir Alex Ferguson was the best at it for years and years– he kept players at United for maybe a year or two years too long because of the success they had at that club.
â€Å“You keep winners and leaders in that dressing room and it has a knock-on effect to the players you bring in.
â€Å“So, even if Kompany only plays ten to 15 games, the importance of having him there is second to none.â€
