Burnley is in trouble with the EFL after playing a weakened team against Reading last week. Rivals Huddersfield is enraged that the Royals forced a draw and earned a crucial point in the relegation battle. The Terriers, who are competing with Reading for the top spot, screamed foul last Saturday when they noticed six changes to the Clarets’ lineup.
Vincent Kompany hauled in a few backup players for a game during their busy schedule even though Burnley had already earned a promotion. Burnley received a letter from the EFL warning them that if proven guilty, they might face fines or potentially a points punishment. The Clarets insist that they made the alterations because they were fully utilizing their squad and certain fringe players needed a game.

Ironically, Burnley fell 2-1 at home despite playing at full strength against QPR in another battle for survival. Reading has 43 points and Huddersfield has 44. The final game pits them against one another. Burnley, meanwhile, successfully clinched re-entry into the Premier League at the very first attempt. Burnley, which has the league’s best defense and top scorers, has improved under Kompany.
Vincent Kompany’s future
Burnley has played with a style and confidence that are now going into the coffers by the amount of £120 million, which is more than is typically seen at Turf Moor. Kompany has reportedly become a sought-after manager as a result of his rising reputation.

Prior to managing Anderlecht in 2019, Kompany served as the team’s captain under Guardiola for quite a long amount of time. Guardiola, who has predicted he will lead the Etihad in the future, helped him win two of his four Premier League championships.
Now, we can finally see the array of skills that Vincent Kompany, the manager, possesses. He is one of the many managers under the tutelage of Pep Guardiola, who will be plying their trade in the Premier League. Mikel Arteta, who was part of Pep’s staff at Manchester City, is competing with the Cityzens this season, to win the Premier League with Arsenal.
Now, if Kompany will join Arteta managing a team in the Premier League next season, be it with Burnley or with any other PL team. It will be fascinating to see if Vincent makes the move in the summer window to a new team.
