Erling Haaland has evolved. No longer just a finisher, he is now the engine of Pep Guardiola’s 4-2-3-1.

- **The Wall:** Pins defenders to create space.
- **The Relay:** Drops deep to link play.
- **The Finisher:** Exploits vacated channels.

This tactical shift turns the Norwegian into a creative force, boosting City’s press and redefining the modern striker’s role.
