So what do you think Pep’s no-striker formation will be like

I think we may see Sterling as false 9 today in the 433 formation. His movement is world class so he does well in the middle.

Other options to replace Aguero/Jesus are D.Silva and De Bruyne to play false 9.
He says in that bit on the o/s KDB won't be used ,he's more effective in the middle.
 
If this is the case i think it will be fluid with players constantly switching the role
Think this is more like it, a false 9 isn't somebody who isn't a centre forward playing as a centre forward, it's playing without a centre forward and getting other players into the space created by the defenders not knowing where they are supposed to be in the box.
 
We played a formation last season, might have been against Barca or Arsenal, where the two strikers were sterling and sane, but they stayed wide. Think we'll see something like that.
