FC Bayern Forum

MUTU wrote:We're comparing apples and oranges. Favre has never coached a top club. He could get the best out of an average club but that doesn't mean he'd be able to replicate that with a top club where the aims are different and the pressure much higher. Therefore getting someone like him is always a bit of a gamble. That kind of gamble was a much more calculated risk with Guardiola's appointment, for example.

reminds me of a certain person who used to coach ManU last season and one of our own coaches in the 96/97 season..

True Mutu, but dont forget Heynckes had all official games vs BMG.. Pep had 2 Telecom Cup games

Favre.. is just a heck of a coach for sure.. Almost got Hertha BSC to the BL title, created this Gladbach magic in the last couple of years with very mediocre players. I think if he would have the resources that Bayern has, he could be a very great coach, but there is no evidence he can do it with a club of this magnitude.

I think you got the year wrong? In 96/97 we had Trapattoni, who had previously coached Milan, Juve and Inter, as well as a previous spell with Bayern in 94/95.
