Roy Keane returned to the charge against Erling Haaland on Wednesday after the Norwegian international once again fell short of expectations in the 3-3 draw between Real Madrid and Manchester City in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

Less than two weeks ago, the former Manchester United captain had already stated that the Citizens' striker "almost looks like a League Two player" (the fourth tier of English football, as a result of the performance he signed in the goalless draw with Arsenal. Now, he has assured that he does not regret it... and 'hit the same key'.

"I don't understand what the problem is. I praise Erling Haaland every week. I praise Manchester City, and I think he's a fantastic striker. But his overall game is that of a League Two player," he began by saying on the 'Stick to Football' podcast.

"I'm glad you don't agree with me, I don't expect people to agree with me. His overall game, on a weekly basis, is nowhere near good enough. As a goalscorer and a centre-forward, he's the best, I've said that," he continued.

"The link-up play, the way he gives the ball away, and sometimes the options he does or doesn't give his teammates... As a centre-forward and a goalscorer, he's the best in the world, but the rest of his game is League Two," he added.
