The Egyptian claims Haaland's job is easier as he plays as a striker compared to Salah who plays on the wing.

"I respect him a lot. We may have only spoken once after the last game. But he's a striker, so his life is easier. 

"I wish him all the best, of course. But his life is easy because he plays as a striker. As a winger, getting that kind of quota is pretty difficult. Any winger can tell you that. 

"That's why I see it differently between us, because he's a striker and I'm a winger."
