Congrats on new manager guys, don't let him drink too much beer, we may need him back one day. Great for both, for pep and for FCB, you will do good job with him
I'm gonna' start watching the Bundesliga consistently! I already liked Bayern and now I'll officially become a supporter. Can't wait, wish you the best Pep!
He means that, I'm sure, but I'm also certain he would think it stupid to join the English competition now that it is still expecting great results every single year even though it's obvious to pretty much all the pundits the best teams are found in continental Europe.
If he'd join United or Chelsea now, they would all expect him to win at least one major trophy with the team the same year even though it would be incredibly hard. Winning stuff with Bayern, where the press are less obsessive and the team is simply better, and improving the squad further, will be more feasible. I think Pep would relish the England challenge once they start to really crumble, which I expect is in a year or 3-4 when financial rules are getting to them. He might reform their youth academies and make them big again
Congratulations on the signing of Pep. I think he's an ideal replacement for when Jupp retires. The best part about this deal, at least for me, is that he'll garner attention towards the Bundesliga. This will only add to the inevitable rise of the Bundesliga.
What I'm interested in seeing Pep do above all else is watching how he'll develop your youth players, or at least I hope this is what he does.
Congratulations and yeah, the rivalry between our clubs has probably increased a bit
Bayern is already dominant as hell. You need to be more tricky, when the opponent staying deep, making no efforts moving forward. Set pieces also sth. Were they have to improve
Usually first against last duels result in poor games, because the team struggling to get anything out of the game will play very defensively and the leaders are a bit lacklustre. 5-0 games are those where both teams try to score goals, but one is clearly dominant
Well now that the Pep media circus is over. The first serious question which must be asked is if Pep will touch the already present coaching staff. If so who will he bring in?
Some names which immediately jump to mind are Ballack and Shuster, perhaps a well travelled Dutchman is also a possibility?
In my opinion the assistant coach is going to be extremely crucial to how effective Pep can be
I was just thinking.... If Pep wants his Bayern to play even remotely like his Barca team, what does that mean to Robben and Gomez because I really can't see them playing "the Pep style". Robben never passes the ball and Gomez's passes are inaccurate and he scores mostly headers and tap-ins
