Kompany hails 'massive' three points against Liverpool as he revels in tightest Premier League title race for years

'It’s a weird (title race) because all the teams started a little slowly but now, I don’t know how many wins we’ve had in a row but we can’t grab that top spot.'
Kompany enjoyed his battle with Premier League top scorer Luis Suarez and said: 'I loved every single minute, I live for those games.
'After the game we had a handshake - he appreciates the battle, I appreciate the battle, we won but it was a tough game.'

Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany thinks this season is shaping up for the greatest title race the Premier League has seen.
City came from behind to beat Liverpool 2-1, Kompany scoring the equaliser, at the Etihad Stadium this evening and lie just a point behind table-topping Arsenal.
And the Belgium defender told BT Sport: 'The three points are massive, that’s the hardest game so far. Liverpool are a good team so it’s great for us.
