Was Pep Guardiola a success at Bayern Munich? Guillem Balague and Graham Hunter discuss the issue on the latest edition of Revista Bitesize.
Guardiola's spell at the Bundesliga club is coming to an end and there was disappointment for the Spanish manager in midweek after his side were knocked out of the Champions League at the semi-final stage for the third season in a row.
However, Bayern still have the opportunity to claim two trophies this season and if they are successful it would complete a haul of seven major trophies for Guardiola in three seasons at the Allianz Arena.
But has he been a success during his time in Germany? Sky Sports Spanish football expert Balague thinks so.
"Bayern Munich do not analyse the period of Pep Guardiola as failure," Balague said. "They have never ever done that. They have never put that word next to Guardiola.
"They are looking at: have the young players improved? Yes. Has everybody else improved? Yes. Have they managed to get titles in the process? Yes. Has anyone ever won four Bundesliga title in a row if you include the Jupp Heynckes one? Never ever in the history of the Bundesliga.
"I know having spoken to the directors at Bayern Munich that they see a team that has improved from the Heynckes team."
