I think it's the False 9 for me, dragging centrebacks out of position and leaving massive gaps for wide forwards to run into, surprised it wasn't exploited for so long

Actually, F9 is quite a bit older than Pep's Barca or even Cryuff's Ajax. Check this out! https://breakingthelines.com/tactical-analysis/the-evolution-of-the-false-9-role/

I think the Dutch inverted wingers are pretty neat.

The attacking role of fullbacks. Trent Alexander Arnold's role for Liverpool specifically. Adds an entirely new dimension to the attack.
