Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has finally hit responded to Manchester United legend Roy Keane labelling him a 'League Two' player.

Fast forward to now, Haaland sits top of the Golden Boot charts with 25 goals, five ahead of the nearest challenge but he insists does not pay any attention to what Keane says.

"I don't really care that much about that man, so that's all right,' Haaland said, as per the Daily Mail.

"I don't care, we just have to win our games and now, relax tonight and focus on Fulham."

Man City manager Pep Guardiola also explained why Haaland seemed upset with coming off in the second half.

"He was frustrated with the referee. With the long balls sometimes they push him and he is pulled," Guardiola added.

"He went down and sometimes it was no foul.

"It happens every game a lot of times. He was just a bit frustrated for these actions but I can guarantee how happy he was today."
