“We will see how long he will be out, but I don’t think it will be less than 3-4 weeks”.
In the 17 games that Kompany didn’t start for City this season, the team have yet to keep a clean sheet. In his absence, the Chilean manager will have to rely on Demichelis and Mangala to line up alongside Otamendi.
However, the expensive and often criticised central defensive pairing produced an accomplished display in the east midlands, keeping Leicester’s leading scorer Jamie Vardy quiet for much of the game, while the Foxes’ other danger man Riyad Mahrez was also reduced to a bit-part role.

The Chilean did point out, however, that City have coped well without him in the past.
Sunderland tried to bounce back quickly with chances taken by Steven Fletcher, Yann M’Vila, and Danny Graham but all were not capitalized. “That is the most important to focus on now”.
Pellegrini was accurate when suggesting they could have had eight.
