Manchester City's style of play favored Erling Haaland the most; he was unconcerned in the frontline, just needing to be in place when critical passes came from Kelvin de Bruyne and Bernand Silva. Pep Guardiola feels encouraged that his newly signed goal machine has the ability to lead his squad to glory.
One season with Manchester City and Haaland got 3 titles while in three seasons with Dortmund, he did get any title. In a first season with Manchester City and Pep Guardiola, Haaland shows that he is ready to listen to Pep Guardiola's advice and tactics requirements and if he continues this open mind, he will be improved a lot with Guardiola management.
Erling Haaland was in his heyday at Etihad Stadium, shattering records to become the Premier League's leading goal scorer in his debut season. Haaland has the ability to score goals and is frequently spotted in his opponent's box. Let's see what happens next season.
Haaland did not adapt too well in Manchester City system but he is a striker they need as a last piece to complete their squad. If Haaland can upgrade himself, which I believe he will do, Manchester City will become stronger in next seasons. He is always a goal machine but if he can upgrade his style to somewhat similar to Harry Kane, he will have more contributions for Manchester City. Like in some big matches in late of season, Haaland stepped back to attract opposition defenders and opened chances for De Bruyne. It is early signal for his upgrade in a next season and I believe Pep Guardiola will flexibly make requirements to Haaland.
