Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has admitted the departure of Pep Guardiola has coincided with a loss of quality on the pitch.
The Spaniard swapped the Bundesliga for the Premier League in the summer as he left to take up the top job at Manchester City, leaving behind a legacy that included three German titles and two cup wins.
While life at the Etihad Stadium isn't quite going to plan for Guardiola, his side losing for the second time in the league this season after a 3-1 defeat at home to Chelsea, life after Pep is proving difficult for Bayern.
