well guardiola will fail at bayern aswell as he wont win the championsleague.he came to bayern to win this trophy and not the bundesliga or the cup.in the end his mission failed.alltogether my argumentation is that he would never get a team winning the championsleague with low investitions as heynckes did,as ferguson did when he won the cl the first time.same for mourinho with porto or jurgen klopp winning 2x times the bundesliga + reaching the championsleague finals.guardiola is an ok coach but far away of the best ones
Quote ( Xavi in The Guardian interview)
"When they signed him I said: 'Madre mía, we're going to be flying,'" Xavi has recalled. "I swear it. He's a perfectionist. If Pep decided to be a musician, he would be a good musician. If he wanted to be a psychologist, he would be a good psychologist. He is obsessive; he would keep going until he got it right. He demands so much from himself. And that pressure that he puts on himself, those demands are contagious – it spreads to everyone. He wants everything to be perfect. He is a pesado." Heavy. Hard-working. Intense.
Pep's first words were

“Gentlemen, good morning. You can imagine what a huge motivation it is for me to be here, to coach this team. It is the ultimate honour. Above all, I love the club. I would never make a decision that would harm or go against the club. Everything I am going to do is based on my love for FC Barcelona. We need and want order and discipline. The team has been through a time when not everybody was as professional as they should have been. It is time for everybody to run and to give their all.
I’ve been part of this club for many years and I am aware of the mistakes that have been made in the past, I will defend you to the death but I can also say that I will be very demanding of you all: just like I will be with myself. I only ask this of you. I won’t tell you off if you misplace a pass, or miss a header that costs us a goal, as long as I know you are giving 100 per cent. I could forgive you any mistake, but I won’t forgive you if you don’t give your heart and soul to Barcelona. The style comes dictated by the history of this club and we will be faithful to it. When we have the ball, we can’t lose it. When that happens, run and get it back. That is it basically.”

“I can’t promise titles but I am convinced that the fans will be proud of us… I give you my word that we will put in an effort. I don’t know if we’ll win, but we’ll persist. Put on your seat belts, because we’re going to have fun”
That should be your aim for the team, not judging on a Champions League (semi-final) exit.
