Guardiola: Bayern to decide my future
Bayern Munich manager Pep Guardiola has admitted
the club will decide his future after insisting he will
not change his style of play.
Guardiola’s position at Bayern has come under
scrutiny after their 4-0 humbling at the hands of
Real Madrid in the second leg of their UEFA
Champions League semi-final in midweek.
The Spaniard has also been criticised for his
possession-based style of play with Real punishing
Bayern by playing on the counter-attack at the
Allianz Arena.
Guardiola has hit back at criticism and vowed not to
change his approach on how to play the game.
He said: “I have my own philosophy and we will use
my philosophy against Hamburg, against Stuttgart,
in the DFB-Pokal final and next year.
“I cannot be Bayern coach if I have to say things I
don’t agree with. That would be bad for the club
and for the players, who are intelligent. They
wouldn’t trust me if I wasn’t true to myself.
“It’s up to the club to decide whether I’m the right
coach for this club. That’s not up to me.
“The team must play according to the ideas of the
coach. I am convinced that is the only solution for
the club.
“I didn’t come here to change German football
culture any more than that of Bayern. But when I
speak to my players on a daily basis I can’t talk
about ideas in which I don’t believe.”
