The Bayern Munich midfielder believes the Bundesliga significantly changed as a result of the Catalan's time in Germany
Thiago Alcantara believes Pep Guardiola completely changed the way the game is seen in Germany during his time in charge of Bayern Munich.
Spain international Thiago considered the Bundesliga to be primarily focused on power and strength before Guardiola arrived in 2013.
However, following Guardiola's three years in charge of the Bavarian giants, the former Barcelona midfielder now feels possession and domination of the game are of greater importance.
"Pep brought greater emphasis on putting value on possession and controlling the game," Thiago told Marca.
