Bayern Munich Better Under Guardiola – Zidane

2 Min Read

Former FIFA World Player of the Year, Zinedine Zidane has given Bayern Munich manager Pep Guardiola a thumbs up for the level of success achieved by the club under him.

With his possession-based attacking play, Guardiola has been able to win back-to-back Bundesliga titles since taking over in 2013, totally dominating a league that also has the likes of Borussia Dortmund, Wolfsburg and Schalke O4, and Zidane says he deserves accolades.

According to 90min, quoting German-language sport paper TZ, Zidane believes Guardiola has taken the club to a new level since leaving Barcelona for Bavaria.

“What I’ve noticed is that Pep Guardiola has lifted Bayern to a sensational and fantastic level.

“Since he came to Bayern I have not seen a bad game.

“Not only has he brought the maximum out of the players, but he has got 120 per cent [from them].

“Germany should be proud to have such an outstanding club,” Zidane quipped.

Bayern are one of the favourites for this year’s UEFA Champions League, and are top of the German Bundesliga table with 37 points, five points ahead of rivals, Borussia Dortmund.

Despite multiple triumphs at home, the inability of Pep Guardiola to secure a UCL trophy for the Bavarians has cast a little doubt over his future at the club.
