Kompany injured himself after coming on as a substitute in the Boxing Day match against Sunderland, having missed the previous six weeks with a different problem.
With Nicolas Otamendi and Eliaquim Mangala yet to keep a clean sheet prior to Tuesday, some City fans may have feared the worst facing the league’s joint-highest scorers without their skipper.
Crystal Palace are in fifth place despite their goalless draw at home against Swansea; West Ham United defeated Southampton 2-1 and are now seventh in the leader board followed by Watford and Stoke City, who overcame Everton 4-3.
He said: “I think we are returning to a very solid and consistent team, which is important”.
“It is a game we could and should have won but we did not”.
“But we are taking one game at a time, we are only halfway through there are still a lot of games to play and points to be gotten, we are not getting carried away ourselves”.
‘Believe me, the next match against Bournemouth will be more hard, ‘ said the Leicester manager. “After my substitution, I think the team made a very good game”.
“I am not happy but not disappointed also because I think we played well but we couldn’t score”.
Man City meanwhile moved up to third with the point.
“Our job is to win the next match, then the next match and after that the next match”, he said.
Yes, because we are near the points needed to be top of the table, we are playing in the semi-finals of the Capital One Cup and we have qualified in the Champions League.
“Leicester couldn’t win and now we have an important game to finish the first round of fixtures”.
“The other teams have to win the title”.
