legend Gary Neville praised

is unfair.

Haaland had an exceptional performance in the Premier League and managed to score 10 goals for his team in 6 games and be at the top of the scorers' table. The Norwegian star joined City for 75 million euros in the summer and quickly found his place in Guardiola's team. Now Neville praised the former Dortmund star and compared him with James Bond in his podcast.

He said:

"There's things happening this season that are not smooth but I anticipate Manchester City will win this league, and they could win it comfortably.

"Erling Haaland is... it just looks a bit unfair. I remember when I watched James Bond films when I was younger and there was the character Jaws, who was about 7ft 2in. He used to just pick people up and chuck them on the floor, and it's a little bit like that when you watch Haaland against strong centre-backs. You think, 'wow, he's just unplayable - how do you even cope with him in the box?'.

"The one thing I would say is Haaland's career at City will probably prolong his overall career, because he's just standing there. The way Manchester City play, with that possession that they keep, you never really see him stretching teams, other than when they get one or two in front.

"I just have to say that I'm massively impressed with him. It's the first time we've signed what I believe to be one of the top two or three players in the world for the future. Ordinarily, those players go to Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid or Barcelona. Cristiano Ronaldo, when he became the best player in the world here [at Manchester United] or maybe Thierry Henry at Arsenal, they didn't sign as prospects to be the best player in the world, they just developed to being that when they were here."
