Burnley manager Vincent Kompany is relishing Wednesday night's Carabao Cup fourth round clash with Manchester United at Old Trafford, insisting he wants his players to try and test themselves.
Kompany, who spent 11 years at Manchester City as a player, took charge at Turf Moor during the summer following the Clarets' relegation from the Premier League and currently has them sitting pretty at the top of the Championship table. Saturday's 3-1 win over Middlesbrough ensured they will occupy top spot for Christmas.
The Clarets, who saw off Shrewsbury Town and Crawley Town in the earlier rounds to book a date with United, have lost just two of their opening 25 games under the Belgian in all competitions, meaning he has made an unimaginable impact. They are only three points shy of the 50-point mark at the halfway point of the Championship campaign.
