Vincent Kompany believes Erling Haaland has the potential to improve further and cement his place in the list of all-time greats after watching the Man City striker lead an FA Cup demolition of Burnley.
The Norwegian scored a hat-trick to take his tally to 42 for the season as Pep Guardiola's side beat Championship table-toppers Burnley 6-0 to secure a Wembley semi-final in the FA Cup. Haaland has netted eight times in the last two games and City legend Kompany has no doubt that he is already on the way to being spoken about as one of the best ever.
"I have played against the greats of the time, Messi, Ronaldinho, Zidane, Cristiano Ronaldo . . . in the end they are part of a very special elite because I think even the very best find it very difficult to stop those guys no matter what you say," said Kompany, who spent 11 years as a player at City.
