“I was very impressed with him. That’s my position, of course. He was very good – he played actively and creatively and had some excellent touches on the ball.

“There are certainly some parallels. But you always have to be careful with comparisons. I don’t really like doing that because every player has their own style of play.

“Of course, there are certain things we have in common. But ultimately, he’s a different player than me. He’s just doing a fantastic job. I’m very happy about that, and I can really enjoy it.”
