    I think this thread just shows Pep isnt leaving a genuine legacy at Bayern. Look at someone like Alex Ferguson. Thats someone who has left a real legacy at a football club. I'm certain 99.9% of Man Utd fans would agree with this. But more tellingly the fact that major rival fans will even admit this. I know a good few Liverpool supporters who (begrudgingly) acknowledge Fergie's achievements at Utd. But with Pep you'd actually hear a good number of Munich supporters that consider his time with the club to have been average.

    Pep did a grand job, but ultimately he failed at Bayern, had 3 years also a blank cheque book and still got spanked 5-0 by real, 5-3 by Barca and knocked out by away goal against athletico...has zero plan B which will prove a massive problem at city I think

    True, 3 years isn't long enough to leave a legacy unless you are unbelievably successful. Not helped by people thinking possession football is dead or counter attacking the new thing.

    Pep's legacy in Germany as a whole though seems far deeper, just this morning browsing about on Twitter and seeing a picture of the German under 17 side playing with effectively 2 defenders, a pivot, two ultra advanced full backs, 2 midfield shuttles and a striker dropping in between the lines and you know that Pep's work has had a wider impact.
    You have described how del Bosque's Real Madrid played for a few seasons at the turn of the century and the results weren't too shabby either: 2 La Liga titles, 2 Champions League titles, UEFA Super Cup, Intercontinental Cup. It's not beyond the realm of possibility that del Bosque's team was considered the blueprint for success.
