If you have any valid criticism of Pep Guardiola, it is his performance in the transfer market. Zlatan Ibrahimovic was a failure, and an expensive one at not exactly a70 million. Dmytro Chygrinskiy did nothing to justify his a25 million price, Alexis Sanchez cost million more to a1 and has fought, while Cesc Fabregas remains a a34 million bench-warmer. Even David Villa, Spain's all-time leading scorer, has not replicated his Valencia sort since going to Catalonia. While Guardiola broke the financial institution for targeting and midfield supports, he generally ignored the serious issues that awaited in protection while the conclusion of Carles Puyol's job contacted. Lionel Messi's beauty was able to mask Barca's faults for quite a while, but their 7-0 mixture reduction to Bayern in the Champions League semifinals in 2013 could largely be blamed on an unsuccessful exchange policy that started with Guardiola. Jupp Heynckes is quite much different from his successor. The coach has seldom had resources and substantial time to create a group, but what he's accomplished at Bayern since 2011 is quite remarkable. Manuel Neuer was an unqualified success from day one, and Javi Martinez, Mario Mandzukic and Dante have all done above objectives in 2013. Even Xherdan Shaqiri and Claudio Pizarro have, within their restricted playing time, done very well. All in all, Heynckes' only failures were Rafinha, Nils Petersen and loanee Takashi Usami, who charge roughly a8.5 million total. Jerome Boateng has probably underperformed, but will probably be worth his a13.5 million importance as a squad player. Heynckes includes a great knowledge of the great things in team building, and it's especially remarkable that he revealed a need for a fresh holding midfielder after last season's Champions League final reduction to Chelsea. That outcome may have suggested the requirement for more detail and quality in defense, but he knew his team well anda'despite enjoying without Holger Badstuber for a lot of the seasona'Bayern have been remarkable in defense. And though it cost a40 million to signal him, Martinez has been excellent. Precisely what Heynckes predicted, it should be mentioned.
