Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has defended striker Erling Haaland following Roy Keane's criticism after Sunday's 0-0 draw with Arsenal.
The ex-Manchester United captain said Haaland's "general play" is "so poor" and "almost like a League Two player".
"I don't agree with him, absolutely not," said Guardiola when asked about Keane's comments.
Haaland scored 52 goals in all competitions last season and has 29 this term - 18 in the Premier League.
"He's the best striker in the world," added Guardiola of the 23-year-old Norwegian.
"He helped us win last season and the reason why we didn't create many answers from Erling is we need more presence in the final third with more people.
