MANCHESTER, England (AP) " It is estimated that 35 separate injuries have kept Vincent Kompany out for a total of 2 years since he joined Manchester City in 2008. Kompany visited a specialist in Barcelona this week after damaging ligaments in his right knee during a Premier League game at Crystal Palace last weekend. City manager Pep Guardiola gave the injury prognosis at a news conference on Friday, marking another setback for the team's captain who hasn't completed a game in five starts this season. Toure is back in favor at City after missing the first three months of the season because Guardiola was unhappy with comments by the midfielder's agent. Guardiola said Toure will continue to play in a "more offensive" position.
