Pep Guardiola has said that Manchester City's new signings will have to adapt their game if they want to succeed at the club.

The Blues have won four of the last five Premier League titles playing their possession-heavy football but the squad has undergone considerable surgery this summer with five members of the first-team squad departing and four coming in.

Among the new arrivals is Erling Haaland, one of the best No.9s in the world coming into a side that have shown how to achieve success without a conventional striker.

While the manager wants to get the best out of each signing, he appeared to downplay any suggestion that they could change the way that the team plays.
