Yaya Toure scored either side of a Mario Balotelli penalty as City sank Villarreal 3-0 in Spain, a result which left them two points ahead of Napoli in the race for a qualification spot. They face the Italians away from home in their next game and Kompany told ITV1: "It's a big game, but that's what you play Champions League for. "We've always thought if we do our job properly then we are as strong as anyone. We don't need to look too much at the other teams, we can win every game." On Wednesday's game, the Belgium defender added: "We put in a good shift and did everything as we planned it. "We didn't do anything crazy, we were patient and it paid off for us. "I think defensively this was our strongest performance in the Champions League, then our strikers are lethal on their day and they did a great job today. "We have scored goals nearly every game, a lot of goals. There are a lot of partnerships there and that's a good thing, we can change a lot of players and we don't lose strength, which is important."
