There are many people who make different comparisons, but as a player, and based on my experience in football, he is one who is as good as the very best. Having good and bad games is normal - I want everyone to go and watch him.

Vincent Kompany was at Tegernsee [last summer], he drove out there with Christoph Freund, and said: 'Uli, we need Xavi Simons'.

"I don't have the answers. I take full responsibility of not being able to score the goals I should do," Haaland told TNT Sports. "I just apologise to everyone; every single Man City supporter and every single supporter that travelled today, because in the end it's embarrassing. "Bodø they played some incredible football and in the end it's deserved. Honestly, I don't know what to say because I don't have the answers, and what I can say is sorry."
