VINCENT KOMPANY has faced angry calls to QUIT Anderlecht – after just a year back at his boyhood club.
The Manchester City legend rejoined the Brussels giants last summer after 11 trophy-laden years at the Etihad.

Kompany has since fulfilled a variety of roles with Belgium’s biggest club, including as their player-coach.
The 34-year-old has spoken of a “process” for Anderlecht to go through, focused on developing young players rather than making big-money buys.
Discontent has grown among fans of Les Mauves, however, following a dismal eighth-place finish last season.
And that anger boiled over after Saturday’s 2-0 pre-season friendly defeat to French club Lille.
Supporters painted “Kompany Out” on the road outside Anderlecht’s Neerpede training base.
And in a foul-mouthed and misspelt rant, they also wrote: “F*** The Prosses.”

Kompany fumed at his own fans back in January, after they launched a flare at their former Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet.
Brussels-born Kompany began his career with Anderlecht aged 14, spending six seasons with the club before moving to Hamburg.
City signed the Belgium centre-back in 2008, and he went on to win four Premier League titles, two FA Cups and four League Cups.
