I can't wait to see how Pep uses them


I particularly agree with this sentence-how he "uses" them.
He seems to be just afraid to accept a challenge.He seems to be contempt in leagues which seem to have few other real contenders and there push on for domestic glory and CL with domestic glory being much easier.

Naah. i too feel its a wise decision.
he is definitely eyeing one day to come to Old Trafford and this Bayern duty is just the ideal one for him so that he can stay away from limelight till then and at the same time can ward off any interests from other Premier league clubs and end the hype and speculation concerning his future.

What's interesting was how Bayern always advocated to having a German coach to remain traditional and stability yet signed a foreigner. It must be very fickle of their board to just hire Pep, a Spaniard, out of nowhere.



Louis van Gaal and Jonker for last 2-3 months of that season when van Gaal was fired.

But Guardiola surprised me as well, i expected Heynckes to stay for 1-2 more seasons at least and possibly Scholl taking over as assistan and later as 1st team coach when heynckes would retire.

I hope bayern wont be changing the roster heavily, they have great synergy right now, maybe 1 CB and possibly a technical striker (Suarez/Neymar or someone) and they're fit.

And for the love of god, NO TIKI TAKA!

Mhm. They definitely have a good balance of a team. Great GK, decent defense, a budding midfield, and a classy forward line.

As for transfers, definitely try for Agger and for forwards: Guidetti or maybe Suarez. They can try poaching some of the young German or Dutch starlets.

I believe Neymar is Barcelona bound unfortunately as it would be shocking to see him head to the German league. If there's anything about German teams, it is their leaning towards a German backbone. Very few Spanish players would choose to ply their trade instead of doing in La Liga. It's harder for foreigners to integrate themselves into Bundesliga.

Haha, Bayern are already a well-drilled team, and Pep is a great tactician. They should be looking to ship off Robben in place for a younger winger (Eriksen maybe). I don't believe their style of play will change too much, maybe they'll lean towards a more pressing side if anything.
