Vincent Kompany's emotional farewell speech to his Manchester City teammates has been released by the club.

The video of the former Blues skipper, who left the club to become player-manager of Anderlecht, also urges them to go on to further glory - and win the Champions League.

The footage is part of a new four-part mini-series about the climactic final 30 days of last season, when City saw off the challenge of Liverpool to land consecutive Premier League titles, and won the FA Cup.

Kompany 's speech came in the Wembley dressing room after they had beaten Watford 6-0, the Belgian star's last game for the club .

He said: "I just want to say thank you. Thank you for 11 years of experiences.

"Bad patches, good patches … everything I have experienced with the club that I love. I’m so grateful.

"It’s not going to be my best speech, because it’s the most emotional one I have ever given in my life.

"I’m glad that this was my last game. I wouldn’t have wanted it any different.

"You guys are the best group of people I could have finished my City career with. I have gained new family members.

"I think you’ll realise by the end, when you get to this point in your career, the people you remember are those who were there in special moments. Everyone here is now part of my family.

"The challenge for you boys is to be even better. It’s difficult to say, you have just won the English treble, but you haven’t won the Champions League yet. That’s your goal now.

"You’ve got such a group of players, that can achieve anything they want, don’t ever let it slip. Before you know it you will be doing a speech like me, crying, and then it’s the end of it. Trust me it goes that fast.

"So let’s have a party, a good celebration. Thank you."
