True or False: The future 9 question

I'm confident that he'll keep adopting the 4-2-3-1 for the majority of his first season as that's the main strategy our players are used to. Having players like Gomez and Mandzukic on the roster scoring goals on a continuous basis will not be something easy to ignore. No matter how they improve their pressing and passing game, they're still no false-niners.
The 3rd striker is where I see Guardiola trying something different. Rather than renewing with Pizarro or getting someone similar, I see Pep going for a false-nine type of striker similar to Suarez whom he can use to try and integrate his own philosophies into the team.
