'When I say to you, it's that they're rotating everywhere. [Joao] Cancelo's popping up in midfield, Kyle Walker playing midfield.” He said as quoted by Daily Mail.
'Then [Jack] Grealish would be out wide, then Bernardo [Silva] would be inside him, so the full-backs can't come and mark and get tight.
'It was a masterclass. It's just one of those things where you've got to put your hands up and say they were unbelievable.'
Last season, it was Manchester City who emerged the top scorers of the campaign, scoring an impressive 99 goals in 38 games including three in their final game of the season.
Guardiola will be hoping his side replicates their frightening run to go for a third straight title in the 2022/23 season.
The Citizens however have a new look in attack, having sold Gabriel Jesus and Raheem Sterling to Arsenal and Chelsea respectively.
Aside from Haaland, Guardiola also brought in Julian Alvarez, Kalvin Phillips and Stefan Ortega.
