Erling Haaland's ruthlessness will give Manchester City a new edge (The Guardian)

The signs are ominous for City’s opponents but moving from the Bundesliga to the Premier League is easier said than done, especially for forwards. They needed 16.6 touches inside the area per goal, which was the seventh-best return in the Premier League. Liverpool needed 15.7 touches in the area per goal. Liverpool converted 55.3% of their clearcut chances – the best conversion rate in the league – whereas City scored from 46.7%, the fifth-best. He scored from 78.3% of his clearcut chances in the Bundesliga this season, the best return for any player presented with 10 or more clear chances. City did not have a player to shoulder the goalscoring burden this season. Manchester City scored 99 goals on their way to winning the Premier League title this season.

Erling Haaland has Darwin Nunez clash as Pep Guardiola and ... (Manchester Evening News)

Manchester City's new striker looks set to be in direct competition with Liverpool's new man next season.

Haaland and Nunez are particularly inclined to thrive on the counter-attack, showcasing an ability to remain composed when finishing high-speed moves. They could easily benefit from having a natural striker up front, but they might have to become accustomed to building moves with one less player. Both players overperformed Expected Goals (xG) in the process, which offers an insight into their finishing proficiency in comparison to the average player. With neither side fielding a traditional striker, every player for both sides has been inclined to engage in build-up play. Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp have work to do as they reshape their attacking approaches in the coming months. Erling Haaland will lead the line at the Etihad next season, and comparisons with Darwin Nunez seem inevitable.

Liverpool and Man City evolve together as Darwin Núñez and Erling ... (Liverpool.com)

Manchester City and Liverpool have both pioneered systems without orthodox strikers, but Erling Haaland and Darwin Núñez represent a change for both sides.

And so, as we enter a new era of rivalry between Liverpool and Manchester City, the protagonists have been cast. One of the most intriguing subplots of the season will be how Guardiola and Klopp maintain their dominance while tweaking their systems. The nature of the juggernauts constructed by Klopp and Guardiola means that both Liverpool and Manchester City will expect to dominate almost every match. They will each be given a clear brief: put the ball in the back of the net. No doubt the players themselves will be asked to change their games too, but it seems clear that a change of approach is on the cards for both Liverpool and Manchester City — each have signed classic number nines, having previously pioneered systems without them. Most of the time, the numbers game prevails: a vast amount of possession turns into a reasonable number of presentable chances, enough of which are put away to secure three points.

Powerhouse strikers Erling Haaland and Darwin Nunez will have ... (The National)

Tall, muscular forwards give Manchester City and Liverpool different options up front.

But Liverpool are encouraged by how rapidly Diaz, signed from Porto in January, adapted to his new club on leaving Portugal and two months ago they saw at first hand how Nunez can thrive in the best company. All this in his debut campaign in the senior Uefa competition, building on a bright Europa League season in 2020-21, when he started five times for Benfica and registered five goals. The likes of Salah, Jota and Luis Diaz should in turn benefit from the Uruguayan’s layoffs. It will not be long before they are each being pictured at pre-season practice among the established senior players at their ground-breaking new clubs. The goalkeepers, Ederson and Alisson, both prized for their accurate, long-range distribution, will be among the first to take note. Time for the Premier League’s leading lights to adjust their eyelines.
