The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Netherlands-c753 international insisted that he expected the talented manager to join an English Premier League club but said that his appointment is a great step for the German side
Bayern Munich star player http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arjen-Robben-c6521 expressed his surprise at former Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola’s decision to join the Bundesliga club. However, he feels that the trainer’s arrival in the summer will bring a positive impact
at the Allianz Arena as he is very highly regarded after his heroics for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604.
Der FCB confirmed last week that Pep would take over from current boss Jupp Heynckes at the end of the campaign. This quelled rumours that the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 international will try his luck in the Premier League following his one-year
sabbatical from football.
Guardiola’s decision has shocked everyone and the Dutch forward claimed that he is among the list as well after his side beat Greuther Furth 2-0 over the weekend. He said that a day before the announcement the papers revealed that
the trainer wanted to sign for an English outfit.
"I was surprised, also because it happened really quickly," the 28-year-old Dutchman mused.
"One day before he signed I read that he was looking forward to working in the Premier League. A day later he signed at Bayern. It was surprising but good," he added.
Die Roten lead the league charts by nine points and some of his team members such as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-Van-Buyten-c10095 stated that they need to get over this news and focus on the upcoming matches.
"We are proud, because he [Guardiola] is one of the best, maybe the best coach and he chose the best club," he stated.
"But this is in the future. Now we want to deliver a good second half of the season. We do not want to speak a lot about the future,” he finally concluded.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Belgium-c2850 international suggested that Guardiola is a top manager, if not the best and he joined a big club. However, he believes that they will work with the trainer in the future and should worry about giving their best in
the second half of the campaign.
