Former Bayern Munich coach and Champions League winner Ottmar Hitzfeld said the club will be fine without Pep Guardiola.
Bayern Munich does not need to mourn the loss of "tactics freak" Pep Guardiola, according to former coach Ottmar Hitzfeld.
Hitzfeld coached Munich from 1998-2004 and then 2007-2008 and won five Bundesliga titles and one Champions League crown.
Guardiola is in his third campaign, winning two league titles and a DFB-Pokal crown, but will leave at the end of this season.
Hitzfeld, who retired from football after coaching Switzerland at the 2014 World Cup, said the Spanish coach had proven no more successful than Jupp Heynckes, who Guardiola replaced in 2013, adding that he had failed to connect with his players.
