5. Tiki-Taka
www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RNfaIW5k1g Pep Guardiola's managerial spell at Barcelona brought about numerous changes, not only to the squad but their style of play in general. The likes of Deco and Ronaldinho were replaced with Barcelona academy by-products, with the aptly named tiki-taka (or tiqui-taca for our Spanish amigos) brand of football being implemented. The style consists of short passing and movement with the main principles being the retaining of possession and freedom of position; this style effectively changed modern football. Many have tried and failed to emulate such a mesmerising and successful game plan though English (technically Welsh) mid-tier side Swansea were one of the more successful imposters. It is likely that this style of football will be adopted by the German champions during Guardiola's spell at the club. This potential, with the addition of Barcelona's transition away from tiki-taka play, could be the key to making Bayern Munich the greatest club in world football. With the pacey midfield already possessed, the likes of Ribery, Robben, Schweinsteiger et al, plus the attacking style of wing backs Lahm and Alaba, the Bayern squad would be easily suited to the concept made famous by a Barcelona side claimed to be the greatest ever.
