Vincent Kompany has recently signed a new contract at Manchester City and is aiming for four of five more Premier League titles.
Kompany has already won two top flight crowns to his name, but he insists that it is not enough and he has to strive harder to get a few more. He hopes to make additions to his medal haul in the time his contract has given him which is until 2019. He plans to make the best out of his career until it is time for him to leave the Etihad Stadium.
The Belgium international is headstrong about this goal he had set for the future. When his time to depart comes, he wants to make sure that he will leave with a remarkable and enviable collection of major honors, with everyone connected with City looking to establish domestic dominance.
"If you win the Premier League once, you either stop there or you carry on and win 10." Kompany said.
"That is not going to happen for me now but I am not going to be happy with just two. I want to be able to look back on my career and say that I won four or five at City.
"It's a tough ask but that's the path I've chosen and it's something I'm ready to fight for. It's the kind of challenge I thrive on. If it wasn't there, I would be gone.
"For the last six years the challenge at City has not just been to beat the other teams but also to overcome opinions - and I love that.
"The Premier League is physically demanding. The December and January fixtures are no joke. But let's be honest, we have a lot of resources at City. We are not victims of the situation here.
"The hardest thing is to win the first title. When it comes to retaining it, partially it's a mental thing.
"In our case, I feel there are a lot of red flags, alarm signals from last time. So we have to be really careful not to fall into complacency. And I'm pretty confident that's not going to happen."
The 33-year-old commanding center-half added that seeing his fellow footballers with the likes of Silva, Nasri, Kolarov, and Toure signing new contracts is a sign of huge commitment.
"I have had a strong relationship with this club so it was only natural for me to sign and I am looking forward to the future."
