Erling Haaland's father has hit back at Manchester United legend Roy Keane for comparing the Manchester City striker to a 'League Two' player.
The Citizens striker came in for some heavy criticism after the side's goalless draw with Arsenal a couple weeks ago.
Keane criticised Haaland's overall game and said it was similar to that of a League Two footballer.

Keane and Haaland's father, Alfie, do have history after clashing during their playing days but the father says there have been agendas.
"Then you have the background of Keane and other experts, who may have a slightly different agenda," Alfie Haaland told ViaPlay football.
"They probably think it’s a bit okay to come up with that [the criticism].
"But the team wins, and Erling is still top scorer, so it can’t have been that bad."
Haaland was back on the score-sheet on Saturday afternoon as he netted the third goal in City's 5-1 thrashing of Luton Town on Saturday.
The Norwegian became the first player to score 20 goals in the Premier League while taking his tally to 31 goals across all competitions.
