Show Notes

In this new podcast series Steve Crossman and Guillem Balague explore the life and career of Pep Guardiola. Episode 3 uncovers his motivation behind the move to Munich and addresses the theory that his time in Germany wasn’t a success because the Champions League eluded him. Former Bayern players Manuel Neuer and Robert Lewandowski explain how Guardiola overcame numerous difficulties to dominate domestically before German football expert Rafa Honigstein reveals why his tenure unravelled so quickly. This is a BBC Sport Production for BBC Sounds and Radio 5 Live.
