Can Burnley bounce back under Kompany?

The relegated club had been in talks with former Manchester City captain Kompany regarding their managerial position, following the decision to part company with long-serving boss Sean Dyche last month.

The former defender left his post as Anderlecht manager last month following a three-year spell in charge, but he has jumped straight back into the dugout.
