Some pundits and opposition fans saying they don’t think Haaland will fit in this team due to him being a proper number 9 that just scores goals. They’ve forgotten or just haven’t watched him this season hes turning into a provider as well I think he’s got 15 assists for Dortmund this season. Also his link up play has consistently improved throughout the season especially with his back to goal.
 
Think he'll score a good amount of goals first season whilst adapting to Pep, our team and this defensive league. Then 2nd season if all has clicked, scoring records will be broken.
I thought everyone got their first year off when signing for a Pep side ?
 
I like the idea of something new yet old. As you say a 2332 with KDB staying out as wide as possible to ceaselessly put in crosses.

.................................Alvarez Haaland..........
KDB ..............................Bernardo .....Foden
.......................Cancelo..... Rodri....... Walker
...................................Dias ...... Stones.........
.........................................Ederson................
Stones has started 79/120 games in 6 seasons in the league, mean average of 20 games a season, 13 as a starter

I love John, i think his resurgence has been commendable but we should be exploring other avenues for me, he simply isn't reliable in terms of fitness.The new contract until 2026 was surely to protect the investment, with a resale value to boot, however i personally think Pep will be looking a this over the next couple of windows...

As for the notion he will play 2 up top, not happening, we know Pep is, and always will be midfield heavy, the secret weapon will be the number of assists Haaland will actually generate, expect Foden and Bernardo to pack big numbers playing off him!
