Pele says Bayern can achieve more in the future – Football News
Brazilian icon, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 are very strong international teams.
Pele has stressed that Bayern Munich is not the best team in the continent until now, even though they won the UEFA Champions League in flying colours. Der FCB beat Italian champions’ Juventus FC 4-0 on overall aggregate in the
quarter finals before they defeated La Liga outfit Barcelona FC 7-0 in the semi final.
"When you're Champions League winners, it is not the same as being the best team in Europe," he was quoted as saying in an interview.
On the other hand, they saw off fierce rivals Borussia Dortmund in the final of Europe’s elite cup competition at Wembley Stadium. Nevertheless, the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Brazil-c2858 striker feels one European title is not enough to call them the
best team. Moreover, he feels that newly appointed head coach, Pep Guardiola, might work wonders for them.
"Bayern have to sustain success to show they are the best team in Europe. For about four or five years. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 did this [recently] and Santos did it in my time, while Benfica, Ajax, AC Milan and Real Madrid had their respective golden eras,” the legend mused.
Pele claimed that winning the Champions League does not mean they are the top team in Europe. As a result of this, Die Roten need to gain more success in future to be tagged the best team. He further added that Barca did this a
few years ago and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Santos-c32532 did it when he was still playing.
"Bayern Munich are still far from being jewels of their time. Though perhaps they will succeed under new coach Pep Guardiola, who dominated when at Barca," he said.
Also Ajax, Real Madrid, Benfica and AC Milan have had great eras in the past. Pep was a major hit at his time at Camp Nou. He can raise the level of the Bavarian giants even further when he takes charge at the Allianz Arena.
