How Haaland Changed City's Tactics | Guardiola's 22/23 Tactics Early On | 

How many does he score end of the seaon?

perfect timing after a 6_0 win

kindly analyze how Alvares is playing with halaad , I think he is playing in free mode as second no. 9 , or deeper than halaad, attacking midfielder and winger ,hard to track him

The Robot just scored another Hattrick 🤖💙

I haven't watched his last games but the thing that amazes me is the fact that despite touching very few balls his presence affects the matches.

Please also make a video about today's match. Haaland and Alvarez pairing up front.

Unreal beast Haaland almost every touch is a goal, for once there is striker generational player in the league for years to come. Julian Álvarez also is a top player with plenty to show like he did last night. This team now is a hurricane as long as Haaland Rodri and Kevin stays fit the limit is beyond the sky

I think the first rough matches were purely players' adaptation because they are aware that Haaland has zero link-up skills in their system and he is at his best state operating freely higher, so they compensate it by going more direct and transition from build to attack extremely fast. City's changes in more recent rounds have been modified by Pep, they are much more stable and Haaland starts to show signs of synchronicity with his teammates. In the match against Crystal Palace, due to the huge gaps behind Cancelo and Walker when they tuck in, Pep had to play the "all-in or lose" , pushing his team's backline extremely high to choke them. I don't know but this is his all-in game, he must make more tweaks to avoid being penetrated through the flanks when they lose the ball.

Excellent analysis, as always! Can you also analyze some of the non-big six premier league matches, or something like after tomorrow's transfer deadline, winners and losers of the league with the corresponding tactics/first 11 they play with?

Man City are the most dangerous team in Europe in terms of attack now because of Haaland and Alvarez but by operating with such high line, their defence could be compromised. This won't stop them in the PL, but could be a difference maker in the CL.

I think one thing that I noted is that whenever teams behave as Palace and Newcastle did, Halland would be no consequential. This is because he will be unable to outplay three defenders at the center. However, the introduction of Alvares is proving to keep the defenders busier thus allowing Halland more opportunities.... It happened at Palace....

Wow I really thought that haaland didn’t fit the system because of his technical ability at the start of the season but this has completely changed my mind👍🏽

No wonder man city has gone for Akanji. Since walker is tucking in midfield more, a pacy defender to do what walker did,

Man City and Haaland is such a similar situation to that when a highly experienced sniper (Pep) gets the new, improved and highly deadly sniper rifle (Haaland) and then, leaders say -"GO KILL". I am actually looking forward to mancity matches. Good evaluation...

The main reason for Akanji's arrival is to cover the injuries to Ake and Laporte, but I think Guardiola will be able to use a 3-4-3 or 3-5-2 formation in matches to avoid Walker's wing attack. City now have a super striker who gives them new variants, thanks to his strength, pace and dominance in the box to score. It fascinates me how Guardiola every season finds new tactics for matches. That new touch screen looks amazing for videos. Brilliant analysis as always. Keep it up mate!!!

during nottingham forest city played with a back 3.. the tactics explained in the video exposed the defense hence the goals of palace and newcastle.. i think back 3 is the reason they bought akanji.. clean sheet is good

He changed it whole another level. Bzt time to put video when he scores hat trick 😂

Re-inverting the pyramid. Back to the 1890s

For all the comments on Haaland pronunciation, it’s actually quite correctly spoken by the video-maker. (Norwegian here). Like “haw-land”

Bro I just realized you were a black creator Subscribed! Your voice always sounded like a white guy, amazing accent

Wonderful analysis 👌

No wonder man city has gone for Akanji. Since walker is tucking in midfield more, a pacy defender to do what walker did,

No injuries this guy will easily score 33+ goal this season

Halaand is a perfect replacement for Jesus and Sterling .

Would you make another video of pep's tactic transformations since Barcelona and Bayern Munich? It also would be great to compare individual players between those (haaland vs lewandowski, bernardo vs messi)

As a Norwegian I love the fact that you pronounce his name correctly, Håland instead of Haaaaland like most English speaking people do x)

So far every team that has faced city has played a back 5 but somehow they score through it.

Yeah City has made their best purchase since aguero and deBruyne , Halaand is a beast.

The cyborg

The only way to counter Peps teams is to play fearless and go at their defense head-on especially on the break when they have few players defending because of their players playing very high up the field, a similar tactic Newcastle or Real Madrid used on them. This causes them to panic aand force them to start dropping back. But if your club just sits and defends deep in their own half then this gives City the advantage with 1v1 overloads in the flanks, and midfield.

Great video! From a lot of analysts I know you are the best one. Maybe you should make more videos about matches i.e. in Premier League matches. Moreover, the situation about Chelsea is very interesting. This year in champions League there will be awesome matches even in the group stage. Please make some videos if there is a tactically interesting match e.g. Bayern - Barcelona. Keep going!

Bro really scored another hattrick

2-3-5 was the only football formation when I was a kid (the ‘ 50s)

Can you make a specific video on Thomas Muller off the ball Movement .

Just after another hatrick

I just have to say, I've been following this channel since its first videos. The quality, content, and improvement I see in every video has made me fall in love with football even more as I can better understand what I'm watching. Thank you for making the beautiful game simple.

With Haaland in form the only way to beat City now is to score more than them😬🤐

Hooland

He is scary to face. That changes entire oppositions mentality and backline.

Alvarez, Foden and Haaland are just 22 yo... let that sink for a moment! I think we are watching the birth of the best attacking trio in history, better than Ronaldo, Tevez, Rooney, Benzema, Suarez, Bale, Messi, Neymar trios of the last decade. With Haaland as the pivot, Alvarez and Foden have a huuuge room to growth!

We request an analysis of Arsenals recent from. We are interested in Arteta's tactics

Amazing and thorough as always. Can we assume that they transferred him to city after making these tactical adjustments on paper?

Been waiting for this one😍

Alvarez underrated!

This is why skillful and effective player's are vital for this style of football !

CITY, CITY, The best team in north west and all the world ! (1958 movie theme tune of "The Vikings" sung loudly by the City faithfull in 1976 at Norwhich away after the movies premier tv debut) 😝😄😛🤣💙👍CTID.

Is there any way that you could do an analysis of City vs Forest. It was interesting how Alvarez and Haaland worked together in almost a strike partnership

Haaland just scored a hat trick today again. This guy isn’t normal.

The graphics🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

We bought this guy at 22 years old 😂😂😂 in his prime.

This is your best video yet, amazing work. This duration is perfect for you to explain everything in detail, it is fantastic to see how much you have grown your community and improved as an analyst. Now it's time to do a Tchoameni tactics video (he also heavily alters the way his team plays). Keep it up!!

Haaland is just ridiculous. He has got everything, and is the clinical finisher City have missed in the past couple of seasons, and look a real scary team this season.

This makes a lot of sense. I did not think haaland would be a perfect signing because i did not see the need for fast transition striker that he is in the first place. In my mind city was always a team that overloads the box with a lot of possesion and short range combinations. I see now that that my perception was far too one dimensional. His abilitys free up room for his teammates who can then create even better chances.a

This is very similar to what he used to do at Bayern

Kimich would be a great reinforciment. He could play in walker's position... Agree?

its all about PEP GUORDIOLA, give this team to any other manager and he wont be able to handle the dressing room and all these tactics and success

So much of pple who thinks they knows about tactics saying he only have a few touches in some games. But as a central forward he's job is to get defender on him and make space for others.

Haaland พา city อัตรายขึ้นหรือเปล่า แน่นอน เขาทำสิ่งที่กองหน้าตัวเล็กทำไม่ได้ เปิดรูปแบบการบุกแบบใหม่ให้ city

And he just scored back-to-back hattricks lol. Crazy

Peps all about drawing players in to furthermore create play in the pocket of space left behind, he uses the cf in multiple ways like involving the two tens in the half spaces with his hold up play etc.

Great breakdown

Haaland is going to be a nightmare for all the teams and he is very intimidating

Honestly its an incredible tactics but then its costing city at some point. Man city has now become a one man scoring team. And once haaland doesn't score its all done for city coz everyone in the team looks for where haaland is which is costly at some point. Last season city had almost everyone in the team scoring goals which was profitable for them. Man city needs to improve on that.

Great tactics explained. From a football Genius and coach

Amazing video as always 🔥

I think you should do a "how Alvarez changed City's tactics" because I feel that's the biggest change I've seen from the previous season to this one, the use of two central strikers. The most effective one too I might add. City has been absolutely devastating with both Haaland and Alvarez upfront, and not so much with only Haaland.

PEP MASTERCLASS

What's the use of the wingers during long counter attack do they just stand there?

It’s pronounced H-AAA-LAND not , HAWLAND🙂

really happy as a mci fan

great vid :)

this is so funny , when i said he has insane potential to be next ronaldo or even surpass him i was made fun of , now yall worship him

Oh my goodness why can't pep come to Chelsea

This City really looks like Bayern at Pep's Era

Which app do u use football made Simple

Do you think this sort of system would fit ronaldo.

Now they have the champions league ❤️

This actually means City has become even more vulnerable to counter attacks, I can see UTD & Spurs doing serious damage with fast runs. 🔥🔥🔥

What program are u using, for these videos?

where did you get the football touchscreen tv

where's the "Ho" in "Halaand"?!😣

Jeez we are in trouble 😂😂😂

When I see him. No doubt United should have overpaid for him. But the Glazer just want to cash money out of the club.

Why does this sound so familiar to Tifo style videos lol

He is exactly what City needed - a clinical striker. After Agüero left, their decisiveness was lost. Even against Madrid, aside from schoolboy mistakes in defending, they created so many chances which they failed to convert (Foden, Mahrez especially). Replacing Agüero with Gabriel Jesus was the biggest downgrade. Good to see Pep learning from his mistake (blunder, actually).

First

Most of the teams are not playing 4 4 2

isn't xavi use the same tactic? 2-3-5 during build up

This a a fuc**ng masterclass

2 hattricks in 2 games bro

Is this guy the cognito guy😂😂

Transforming? Maybe. For the better? That's up for debate and will be decided later on. Haaland is a fun player to watch, but people need to realize that City have always been a goalscoring machine. The main difference now is that one player is scoring most of the goals. I think Alvarez could get 15 league goals if he plays enough, but no one else will reach double figures. That's usually how it works with dominant scoring types.

55+ GA this season easy

Can you make a bayern taktik Video

What's the name of the app you use?

It's Pep and not Haaland who changed how the team plays. He is the best tactician and coach...

So good explained thanks

United will beat this city .

What software do you use?

please make a video of simeone!
