tbh, Guardiola prolly thought he'd get free CL trophies with this squad
Instead he brought Bayern one of their most embarrassing defeats in CL history

I'm really unsure how to rate Guardiolas performance in Munich. When the season ends he most likely won 3 national championships and 2 national cups.
He could win the CL but that isn't nearly as easy to predict.

He took a great squad that won the triple, strengthened it and introduced a style that can destroy most opponents. Nobody should be surprised when he wins a game with a 4+ goal difference.
But not even Magath could make this team not win the championship. The roster is so far ahead of everybody else in Germany that national trophies are almost a given. In the end if it's not a record for decades nobody is going to ask if you won a championship being 5 or 15 points ahead of the 2nd place finisher.

That leaves us with a few destructions of european tier 1.5/2 teams like porto and roma which conceded 6+ goals in a single game and clear losses against Barca and Real.
I don't think he's bad. Sure there was some luck in his career first taking over a Barca squad that had in form Messi, Iniesta etc and afterwards leading Bayern who have no competition in Germany but then it took him 2.5 years to lose his first match in the first half of the season. His teams are incredibly consistent and even bench and youth players often instantly fit into the system and look as if they were from another planet compared to the average league player.

Barcelona is completely outclassing river atm, unfortunately. That second goal from the failed offside trap. Wow. How can you give Suarez that much space...

Ancelotti stated that as soon as he knew Bayern were interested other clubs were out of the race.

There seems to be little doubt about Guardiola being an excellent manager among his players or even his fellow managers.

Watching MOTD the contrast between LVG sitting there quietly taking notes and GIggs getting up and trying to actually effect the game is interesting.

he didnt won 2 CLs in a row with the best team in the world, which, arguably (in comparisson to other teams) was much better than this team.

Winning CL its no easy task.

Wow didn't expect that Ancelotti has already taken the job at Bayern, was hoping he would go to United instead. Well I guess it's down to Pep/Mou for United. Can't see LVG in the job much longer, we have an away game at Stoke and home to Chelsea to end the year and looking at our current form it's gonna be tough.

I don't feel like he strengthened the team at all. The squad got stronger yes, but how much of that can be contributed to Pep is hard to say. Their play under Heynkes felt much better and much more fitting to the strengths of the players. Winning the Bundesliga and losing twice in the CL semis has to been seen as a failure for this kind of squad to be frank.

What's wrong with Mignolet and how useless is this Adam Bogdan reserve keeper. Took him less than 2 minutes to drop a nice easy catch onto a waiting Watford strikers foot.

Holl hell Watford have scored again.
